Yeah it is a daily so E85 is a no go huggy

Just got off the phone with Race Torque. Can't go in today to speak to Lane as they are bit busy and Lane is off to Japan until the 20th, so I'll just sit tight until then.

I chucked the TD04 graph up as well (TBE + Walbro + everything else stock)

Edit: Just noticed the runs were done in different gears too.

There is a change of correction and a massive change in humidity on the two runs too.

For the sake of the cost of a power run, might be worthwhile doing an independent run at MMS or ASG if possible.

I think looking at the latest tech twinscroll stetup from a reputable source would be a good place to start! 257, zorst, flash 441nm at 4000rpm :P

My 2.0l makes 414 at 3750rpm. Stops making any power after 6500 so it doesnt really need to be whipped like a stray cat.

Boost = torque.

Also as alluded to by Kato: You are trying to compare different dynos, a month apart in different conditions, different gears. Those bits of paper are essentially useless.

I don't know why you'd be so hung up on the dyno numbers when you haven't got any figures that actually tell you how fast that car is. Eg Barbs, Plex or even RAC.

Once you cant get a faster time, then look at the car. You can't judge your cars performance through roundabouts and take offs from sets of lights.

I don't know.....

But yeah, diff dynos, days, weather etc etc never going to get a good comparison. For all you know your car is a ~400Nm car on ASGs dyno.....

im not into running cars hard if its not neccesary. I'd go down a strip once, maybe ever, as a reference. Great way to thrash a perfectly good car, for what? skidpans look fun, but i wouldnt make a habit of throwing around an expensive car. sure my cars really slow anyways..

[QUOTE=Terry.Wrist;707526]I don't know.....

no ones seen my front end.. id rather egg v8s on with a little stab of first then back off and watch the show as they angry fist pump and blast off making all sorts of noise. lol
