Hi everyone,

I have an auto tranny s2 r33. Has 3.5" cat back zorst, blitz pod filter, and boost is upped to 9psi via a turbosx boost controller. No other mods.

What benefits can i expect to get from a dyno run? What could be tuned to extract more power from this setup?

Thanks for your help =)

Checking that all is well in the A/F ratio area would be my first priority. Then you could maximise the base ignition timing. That's about it.:rolleyes:

They are good for fault finding too. You might pick up an air/vacume leak while your on the dyno too.

It's a good way of checking the car under semi controlled conditions.

But if there's nothing wrong with your car, then there's not much point doing a dyno run.

Ok this may be a stupid question cos I don't know a lot about dyno tunning but i'll ask anyway...

When it's said you need an adjustable computer, does this include re-mapping the stock ecu? Would you need dyno tunning at the same time of the re-map?

Or do you just tell the person that is re-mapping what your mods are and that is enough?

You can buy a premapped chip, but every engine is different. So the more accurate way is to real time tune the chip on the dyno.:P

Thanks for the helpful advice =)

i think i'll wait out on the dyno run until i get some more mods :(

Tigger if you've upped your boost then dont. I also have auto tranny but more importantly i upped my boost - put it on the dyno and found out i need a new fuel pump - unfortunately the damage was already done and eventually engine went BAM.

Moral of story is its good to check air/fuel ratios etc ..... incase your fuel pump is on the way out.

    • The water pump is know to leak as well. So if the coolant is low checking that first as well as hoses. 
    • Reading your posts Josh, sometimes I feel like I've gone in a time machine back to the 90's when everyone was doe-eyed and figuring things out for the first time.  I've lost track of how many single turbo GTR's I've seen on track that haven't burnt down lol. Everything has been figured out a long time ago. These things are at the point now where its essentially turn-key to go single turbo. 
    • Among other things yes. Making sure to either use an oil pressure regulator or the right restrictor size for your oil pump/range of oil viscosities you intend to run, making sure you plumb the lines correctly, turbo should be placed such that it siphons properly even when the water pump isn't turning so you don't boil coolant in the turbo after shutdown, oil return should be low resistance and also preferably picking the one that is most likely to return to the pickup as opposed to some other irrelevant part of the pan. It's far from impossible to figure this out but I have seen people really, really struggle and if that's the case it's easier to just take the path of least resistance. To me, bolt-on twin turbos are a fixed cost whereas single turbo is almost unbounded.
    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
