Thanks Nelson.

Chad, how does your EH Enhanced Automotive Mainline dyno run compare to your PGA Graham West Mainline dyno run from earlier this year - have you made any significant changes since then?

I've had runs of 366, 364rwkw on a Mainline and a few runs of just under 350rwkw on a Dyno Dynamics over the year - two weekends ago the most recent.

From what I've seen over the last 10yrs of dyno use and across a range of roller dyno's, most are within 15-20rwkw at worst.

Thanks Nelson.

My first run with new turbo's was 316kw at Willall in Jan this year, then 311kw at Grahem West in March. Only change is the straight through exhaust.

I just had a look at my peak boost on my boost controller from the dyno runs and it was only 1.22 bar which is less than 18psi :P

I was trying to turn it up after each run but it wouldn't go any higher, maybe i was doing it wrong?

So the Willall and GW runs were damn close - 316 vs. 311. The low tyres pressures (resulting in excessive tyre distortion – a sure-fire area for dyno losses) and reduced boost pressure would easily account for a slightly lower than normal figure.

At this point I’d like to borrow a line from Sesame Street, and announce that the info’ above was brought to you, Chad, by the letter E, and the numbers 8 and 5 :P 1:18’s and beyond are there for the taking.

i have also found that GWW dyno and boostworx dyno readouts are about 5rwkw give or take.....and thats mainline at GWW and dyno dynamics at boostworx.....all depends on calibration i guess and maintenance

    • Do you think the guys in Penrith are install the E85 Kit?
    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
