Anyways just letting you guys know that after running 100 octane we reached over 200kw atw...

the car is stock just has a massive intercooler, and turbo exhaust......I couldn't believe it...

cheers guys

No proper ECU?

Without a ECU really you aren't realistically going to make any more than 160-170rwkw. So there is a reason you can't believe it - it's because it's not true.

The car should run 110mph with over 200rwkw, I bet it doesn't run better than 104

[fly333]

I have a dyno sheet stating that the car made over 200 rwkw, so what you think the ecu is not standard?

How do you get better mileage with 10% ethanol? You need to use more fuel of it to get the benefits from it.

Simlar to E85, but on a lesser scale of course

been using the united 95 e blend in the missus stock as a rock honda for a while now and the economy is just as good as it was with bp98

go figure..

I could make my car pull 600rwkw on a dyno if i wanted, doesn't means it's worth the paper it's printed on.

Do you even know if you have an after market ECU? If it's chipped etc?

If you have factory one, it is exactly what we all told you before - it is not possible to "tune" a dead stock ECU.

In that instance I doubt very highly you are making over 200rwkw (legitimately). 200rwkw is pretty much "the limit" for a stock turbo with a proper tuneable ECU and so on.

A tune would cost upwards of $400 for entry level, so if you didn't at the least hand over $500 I reckon you are being led up the garden path.

A properly tuned ECU will give you a much better midrange, drive abilty and improved economy over a stock ECU

must be a pretty good dyno tuner for him to be able to remap the stock ecu with his mind

[fly333]

It's either you can't read or your having trouble understanding, I know you can't tune a standard ecu. All I said was that the car made over 200 rwkw. I might have said it in a previous post but that was my mistake. Just wish people read the comments before replying

You asked if it was OK to use a standard ecu? Why would you ask this if you didn't have a standard ecu? Instead of wishing for people to read comments (which they did anyway) start wishing for some common sense. Give santa enough time to locate some and deliver it to you for Christmas.

You have people here trying to help you out based on info you provided and your being a smartass.

[Sunkist]

Santa will give his tuner the ability for 250kw with the stock ecu.

its amazing.

why are you all falling for this guys shit? lol

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

at the end of the day, what everyone is saying is that the stock turbo simply cant flow enough for more than 200rwkw

generally speaking they max out at 190-195 rwkw and that is running 14psi with a full ecu (more boost than is really a good idea with a stock turbo)

a stock ecu will hit rich and retard mode when you go over around 10 psi and will pull timing out. this tends to limit the car to say 180rwkw TOPS

these facts have been backed up 11ty billion times on these forums.

what people are saying is that if the car makes over 200rwkw on a stock ecu with a stock turbo, then the "tuner" is fudging the results - which is simple to do.

end of the day, does the car run fast? do you enjoy driving it? are you happy? if yes, then just enjoy it

[BeEnAr]

maybe it's 200 RWHP

or they stuck an extra zero on the 20 RWKW it really made

lol

Back on topic, anyone running United 100 RON in a relatively stock car? Just had mine tuned to 196rwkw on BP98 would United 100 when available be safe/a good idea for a bit more safety against knock etc?

[xALmoN]

my car is stock, i run united 100, why? no why, its just convenient for me.
