r33 FMIC results, 215rwkw

[Guest Robo's]

I just spent 2 hours on the dyno and finished up with 215rwkw on 13psi with the standard turbo on a Dyno Dynamics dyno run in Shootout mode. This is previously up from 187rwkw, but with the inclusion of the INTERCOOLERGUYS fmic and an exhaust cam gear, it made an extra 28rwkw. Im a happy man. Power is much stronger, especially top end.

Overall i had 16 runs on the dyno, walking in with 210-213rwkw but with a few missfires. I tried to tune out with the SAFC but to no avail. I wound down the boost to 9-10psi and was pushing around 198-200, with a nice steady climb with no missfires. So we figured, how do i run a nice clean run with higher boost, but with no missfires. I believed the extra boost was blowing out the spark. So i pulled out the plugs and gapped them from 0.8 to 0.7. Immediately at high boost there where no missfires and was getting 215rwkw on 13.3psi. Boosted it upto 14.5psi and it made 216rwkw, but midrange was lacking, so decided too back it off.

The intercooler looks great and fitted without too many dramas. Not once did the intercooler get hot during the 16 runs. A pleasure to have such a nice intercooler fitted and the performance is just great.

Post up your dyno chart

Post up your dyno chart

How?

Holly crap you are running 13psi on the standard turbo? That sould last a few weeks at best I'm impressed that with the standard turbo you made 200rwkw's with 10psi!!! That seems very odd, I have a good hi-flow turbo and it is making 223rwkw's on 14psi and I have all the right gear with the exception of cam gears! Anyway stick the chart up when you have a chance.

email it to me and i'll post it for you if you want ?

Stop kidding yourself.

Robo's, that's an awesome result, mate. Well done! What plugs are you using, who is your tuner and how much was the cam gear/what type is it?

Im using Bosch Copper plugs 7 something code, maybe platnums might be better at higher boost, i dont know. Im the tuner, SAFC's aint the hardest to tune. Cam gear was from Ice performance, nothing special, just a modded standard unit, doesnt even have degrees on it, we had to try and work it out by eye.

May I suggest some BCPR7ES-11 gapped to 0.7 - 0.8mm for your next set. Leave the platinums to the people with more money than sense.

Very good result. Would be interested to see the dyno chart before and after to see whether you lost any power early on or through the midrange.

Not arguing if it can or cannot be done but those standard turbos packed up quick enough at 11psi for me

[Guest Robo's]

Ive been running at least 12psi for some 6 months now.

Sorry there the plugs ive got.

[meggala]

which dyno did you do the runs on?

good results

Chev's Autos in Carrum Downs.

The dyno was run in Shootout mode, which is a little higher than normal mode. All Dynamic Dyno's should be compared in this mode.

[2rismo]

Then you have the right plugs

lol...

I've been racing on 1.0bar plus the nitrous for 3 months and 1.0bar for the year before that. The point is, there is NO hard and fast rule regarding when a std ceramic wheel turbo will fail. Just guidelines.

[MSPEC]

say you make 200rwkws, what is this roughtly in Shootout mode?

[EnricoPalazzo]

it depends on the ramp rate setting on the non shootout mode dyno.

however generally 5% higher is shootout mode.

[noods]

dont' mean to hijack this thread but can someone explain what 'shootout mode' is?

[ferni]

shootout mode tries to make up for different losses on the dyno ...

the good tuners i know of don't use it

MSPEC - Ben doesn't use shootout mode, our dynos are non beefed up etc..

my 270kw would be closer to 300 on shootout mode...

[MSPEC]

So 'shootout mode' is best described as 'dreamer mode'?

[sweetr33]

dont know where u got dreamer mode from. Shoot out mode is shoot out mode, normal mode is normal mode, aslong as u say which mode ur hp/kw figure was achieved in then theres no dramas really, people understand. Im with 2rismo on the turbo issue. Many people say different things. Ive been running 13psi on my standard r33 gtst turbo for over 10 months now with no ceramic wheel trouble(knock on wood). Any way that dyno result is very good matey. Congratulations there, the car did well.

[EnricoPalazzo]

shootout mode was designed so that any dyno dynamics dyno result can be compared anywhere. this is achieved by having different vairbles for temp, humidty, sea level etc etc.
