got my car tuned by Tim Possingham from Adelaide's Tilbrook dyno centre the other day. My car is a 1996 GTST. Anyway he showed me the print out which shows that my car is putting out 200rwkw at only 10.5pounds of boost. Is this possible?

The mods to my car include:

-power FC

-front mount intercooler

-3" apexi N1 exhaust turbo back

-K&N air filter

-blitz sbc-id electronic boost controller

He also didn't install any fuel pressure regulator.

Anyway, i'm kinda sus cos the car doesn't seem to feel that much more powerful then before when i didn't have it tuned.

that could have been your peak power, but maybe your power band isn't as nice to you as your peak

i had a 187rwkw

then added 3" dump + hi-fow cat + 3.5" stainless steel intake unichip

i got 182 rwkw

lost 5 rwkw at the peak but more power band is completely diff engine is work no where near as hard as before, and i can get up to speed alot quicker, but peak isn't as much and my fuel comsumption changed from 250 ks to a tank to 400ks, its all in the tune

my 2c

i havent had my car dynoed or tuned before and im soon to have a dump/front installed to my current mods which are only cat back and pod. Roughly how much rwkw's will it have after the exhaust is completed. I was told quite a while ago by rpm when i was looking a exhaust that they could extract approx. 200 rwkws with pod, tune and full exhaust. is this possible?

Maybe you should see my power curve before commenting on it....

Steve-SST, My point was that dyno figures dont really mean that much IMHO... To me it was important to sort out the A/F ratios and from that obtain a nice power curve. I dont have a scanner sorry to post it up, but it was tuned my ICE performance in cheltenham on a dyno dynamics dynometer.

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
