Nope, can't use 3rd because it will kick down to 2nd at low rpm and big throttle openings.

Aside from giving inconsistent readings, that's rather dangerous as well.

Auto's are nearly always done in 2nd gear for that reason.

It's an auto anyway, so there is no such thing as 1 to 1 in any gear.

The torque converter won't lock up under full power, so there is always "slip".

:O cheers :(

fair call. when I had an auto S14 years ago,I did my dyno runs with the shifter in D,with the OD off,and had a graph that went through both gears.

the S2 stags don't have this problem,as they can be put into the tiptronic mode,and do the whole run in 3rd,regardless of load,it won't kick down. that's how my 154kw atw graph above was done. in third,in tiptronic mode.

As i have stated previously in this thread i had my car dynoed today!

And well all i can say is i am very very happy with the outcome, i have got the print outs from the day which i will post up tommorow cause i dont have time right now and a pic from it.

Anyway it made 162 at all 4 wheels :) very very happy as i was only expecting around 115-120.

So im stoked

on stock boost? 7psi you made 162awkw?

with the same mods as you bar the sitc (which doesnt really do anything on its own anyway) and i had a fuel pump, i made 140awkw on 7psi and then 160awkw on 13psi.

BTW, the 040 is an easy fit into the stagea because of its craddle design, its a good pump to use in them.

Alex: i have the sitc but its not fitted, the only mods that were on the car yesterday when it was dynoed were: Full exhaust, FMIC and Hi-Flow.

The print outs said the car was on 13psi at peak power however i do not have a boost controller *confused*

As in, your sig says

1997 Stagea RS4

Mods: BOS SS Split Dump/Front Pipe, BOS SS High Flow Cat, Fujitsubo Cat Back, ARC Crossflow Cooler Kit, Z32 AFM, Apexi Panel Filter, Apexi SITC.

I dont see anywhere where it says TURBO UPGRADE...

Of all the mods I did, the turbo was the only one I really felt and you leaving it out made me doubt the 160awkw.

Putting a bigger exhaust on will raise the stock boost level due to a change in pressure or something like that...

On a stock S13 Silvia turbo I put a full turbo-back 3" exhaust on and the boost went from 6psi to 10.5psi.

My exhaust is 3" turbo back on both my cars, and both have the standard stock boost of 7/8psi.

Little surprised bout your results simon, l thought you may get more than that due to the turbo, as l've got a few less mods than u and got 150.4 on that dyno.

Only thing l can think is that the SAFC2 makes a big difference!!!

SAFC does make a big difference.

See, me and simon are compensating for tune by just flowing more air via the high flow (higher... flow...:P)

A stock turbo is good for ~180-190awkw in stageas so with a proper tune it really gets up there.

Put it this way. I could make 200awkw+ with only the following engine mods. R34 GTT cooler, GCG high flow, full exhaust, SAFC and SITC. Thats all.
