winning or not, wasnt the issue,

i wan to see the mods i added improved by how much.

hence the future mods as well.

the readout figure i can not relate to anything,

that is my frustration.

ps.

sorry for bragging,

i'll stop now! :P

and not sure how the dyno reading can be out when everyone else was getting less than expected figures or close to expected! maybe something happened later in the day?

not sure why everyone is getting worked up? it was a fun day!!! and i'm sure ben was feeling pressured to get all those cars off and on! its not like its a proper tune!! so why is everyone hassling?!

either way.. thanks to adam, charlie, jas25t and steve for the day :P was good fun!!!

Moanie. Go and have a look at the previous posts or just postwhore somewhere else please.

The point is that not everyone is happy, and not everyone was up against "Mr Stock".

Enjoy!

if anyone is after an accurate power figure they are best to go to WSID and go by MPH or put their engine on an engine dyno... a chassis dyno is really only a tuning tool which has way to many variables that can affect the readout.... just losely strapping a car has yealded an extra 30rwkw, changing wheels has made near the same so i wouldnt be to stressed by differing read outs

A great day none the less and was great to catch up with quite a few people. Cant wait for the next event :P

Fair enough. Well put but......

You arrived after the event. I hope you enjoy the next event as much as this one (30 minutes).

its cool now,

my lack of knowledges, thinking that dyno run will tell me the exact power figure of the car. (wanted to know so bad, the mods i did)

until IDO09S shead some lights, :P

so yea, :)

I thought it was meant to be fun but Adrian made it a big deal to my Son, when he said that he will get 206rwkw (to beat my Wife's 205rwkw).

He said he wanted to make sure that he took home the trophy that he had asked to be "shined up" for him.

woah!!! i didn't realise that my comments which are on topic equate to postwhoring! i keep that to the relevant threads!!

who is mr stock?

and yes.. i see that not everyone is happy.. i'm just saying that there were alot of cars that were on that dyno... and uas were obviously having some probs... but at the same time, alot of people got power figures they were expecting.. so who can say!!! ben was rushed to put cars through.. maybe he forgot to connect his cables properly on a few runs... someone said there was a faulty connection! so MEH! shit happens! this was meant to be a fun day, and i think most people had fun!

and there really is no need for you to be so rude!

ps if anything i think adrian has a right to win... he has a stock turbo... with nos he owns the stock turbo catergory!!!

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
