Sick Of People Claiming Ghost Rwkw!

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

stranger things have happened..

reminds me of the "HOWTO make a boost gauge for your N/A" thread

*sigh*

LOL!

Serious?! I gota search that one.

I'm with you on this one... ...Went to a Dyno Day at RE Customs and got almost 150kws... ...So I tell people that... ...It's got what it's got...

However... ...If you're a tool in a Comedydor and you ask me at the lights I might just say it's a little shy of 250kws... ...And then let you tear up those sweet looking steel stockies as you try to prove you've got more ba-- *ahem* power...

That's pretty much what I did. Up until it was dyno'd, if someone asked me what power it has, I would say "I dunno, never been dyno'd, but if I had to guess... 180?" I copped a bit of shit for that number but it was the best guess I had...

The car was stock (intercooler ONLY), plus I was young and naive!

Then it got dyno'd at 178.2 runs a higher then factory PSI for some unknown reason... Man that shut some people up

my car makes 0rwkw ... again

Common man, we all know your car is a bigger piece of crap... even when pitted against the highly unreliable and highly flammable HR31

we shall see who wins when benno has time 2 look at it ... u will cry when if tell how it happened

on a slghtly related topic (not like that matters in this thread anyhow) what really gets me is the discussion with holden owners who think that my 265rwkw is slow compared to a stock SS because holden like to stick pretty numbers on the back...

[BigDirtyJase]

that's because the falcodore drivers beleive the numbers on the back is what car can "really" do.

I love explainig to these fools that the numbers on the back is what the engine pumps out not what it does at the wheels and they all go "nah man, that's crap it what it does at the wheels" and then see them get beaten by 'line, stagea, 180SX, WRX etc. and have the look of disbeleif on their faces

Don't the hsv's have a small dyno print out stuck under the bonnet off how many killerwasps the car puts out..?

I think the Corvette has a plarque welded in to say what the kW reading is.

LOL!

[BigDirtyJase]

yeah but that could be from an engine dyno readout...which while it's good because you know how much kw/hp the motor can pump out, still doesn't relate to rwkw/rwhp

beacuse if it was a read out at the wheels....wouldn't make the badging seem...so fake and full of lies??

[HIZOKU]

i have had heaps of funny things said

"your that evo that is running anti lag arnt you?"

what mods you have? it stock just uped boost and exhuast Bull shit know evo is that quick you must have big turbo and built engine

your that evo with over 300kw

your that evo with over 240kw and running launch control

it dont bother me much anymore i let people talk say what they want i dont even list my mods anymore and what im running just let people talk and let times do the talking

[GTRsean]

Just like this graph lol!!!

[KezR33]

Man, my Skyline has over 100,000rww and it's not even turbo charged.

[Swiper the Fox]

power is irrelavant....its the ability to chirp 2nd that really counts.

Yep, thats what I was getting at.

Thanks.

OK,

I'm sure youv'e all got a mate or no of somebody like this but what is it with dudes claiming massive power outputs on relatively stock cars. I'm not going to even look into the pshycology of it all but man it pissses me off.

So yesterday I was at a mates shop rewiring a hole heap of stuff and general maintenance and a unnamed SAU member came by in his 33. He was all like what are you putting down at the treds. I said Last dyno was 231RWKW. He was like yeah iv'e got 340rwkw with a stock turbo on 15psi with just a computer, fuel pump and exhaust. I mean I wanted to just get right into it but I thought f*ck it. What the point…. People like that aren't worth it. I mean I have stock injectors and max them out at full tilt. Now how the hell to I get another 100kw down on those injectors. I have the HKS2535, bosch pump, surge tank, fuel reg, computer, FMIC, exhaust, Z32, Boost control, pod blah blah blah and I cannot squeeze that sorta power out…..

Am I missing something or are these people just living a pipe dream.

I swear i can't stand it, It all ways happen's to me, cant stand it from people with V8's say they have like 200+kws from a standed 5ltr with gears, stage 2 shift kit and monster tacho. One of my mates had a VP 5ltr it only made 118kw.

[THR34T]

Who need dyno, when your car has over 9000kw!!!

ROFL!!!!!!!! Epic call lmao

[dezz]

whats so unbelieveable about 300rwkw from a 5.7L Holden?

Do you know how easy it is to get massive power and 11 second 1/4's out of these cars?

[Rav]

My mate has a 5.7ltr fully work engine forgies soild cam big bux spent on it, The work shop told him it was makeing 280kw. He told a diffent tuner and he laught and said no way put it on the dyno and it only made 250kw. I ve heard most V8 joint's dyno are way out so it looks better for them.

So i guess the V8 fans are liveing in Fantasy.

Ps has any one ever heard a v8 fan say there engine rated at 500hp Thinking that makes the car 500hp at the weels. .

[dezz]

Ive seem quite a few high powered ones but this one only had an exhaust.

What did the VX clubby make standard? anyone know

255fwkw

[Downforce]

power is irrelavant....its the ability to chirp 2nd that really counts.

LOL.. chirping 2nd always puts a smile on my face

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

the vx seies made around thew 220 rwkw mark in standard trim... there's a thread round here somewhere where all the recent falcodors were dyno'ed cant remember the exact figure.

so 300rwkw is EASY.

but remember they are 1.8 tonnes too...

11's are EASY with an ls1
