Christchurch - Dyno Day

[taylor]

In the process of organizing a dyno day for us fellas.

Basically looking to see who is going to be wanting to be doing a bit of tuning, and who is wanting to be doing just a power run.

Power run will be about $60, tuning is to be decided.

I will be on a Saturday either end of October/ Early November.

Will try and keep it to club members, as there will be limited time in the day, and we pay per car not per day.

Can you please post here what you will be interested in, and I will update this post.

So Far
Tuning:

Taylor
Adam
Carl
.
Power run:

Johnny
Dale
Scott

[Johny]

id be interested in a power run :)

[taylor]

Ive been and spoken to the guys at NZEFI. They said for one day ideally 4 people for tuning max and then another 5 for power runs. However tuning would be limited to 4 runs, so road tuning first would be required.

[Adam.Findlay]

well i was speaking to geoff today and he said we can sell my tune to people refine it on the road the day before the dyno day and then flash factory map on for one power run and then the tuned map to see the increase in power
for a small fee of course but does that sound good?
and kayne im pretty sure yours is the only car in bits at the moment :)
we can road tune everyone that wants it, geoff and i are going to have a crack at upping the boost on the factory solenoid this week too man so people dont have to fork out for a boost controller

[Adam.Findlay]

plus the in the tune for those outside of out friend group
so far we have
-propper AFR's via map tracing and wideband tuning
-advanced timing for more low down torque and general more torque through the rev range
-remove speed cut
-lift boost cut
and we are still working on upping the boost on the factory solenoid
if anyone is keen for this kind of tune either post up here or contact me or taylor directly

[bradc]

Good to see you guys are trying to organise something!

I would be keen to see the afr graph on johnny's car

[Patryn999]

As long as tuning doesn't completely anally ream me (money wise) sign me up for one as well. AKA, I call shotgun on one of the two remaining slots :P

well considering all of this is based on the kind lending of your openport cable and your evoscan software you are a part of the tuning team lol
and taylor good point you and i can have a crack at it tomorow and if we can get a noticable difference we can use geffs know how to get it right

[Johny]

so with the power run will i get the print off of the power vs rpm thing?

[djb160]

Are you guys wanting to do BBQ on the dyno day as well? Coz Im really keen for some burnt steak

[Adam.Findlay]

im happy to jam the bbq in the back of the legnum and hussle it round to spec hear some 7000rpm smell some exhaust and burning steak

[mattnz]

Hmmm, might be keen if it's in November. Got a couple of weeks of hanging around doing sfa :/

[Johny]

what i want to see is how much power my cart loses at 5000 rpm i reckon a good 20%

just borow a set of scotts spare turbos lol just for the dyno day haha

[Johny]

lol cart

[djb160]

Actually $60 might tempt me to power run green machine for similar reasons to Jonny. For the BBQ we just need to arrange with SCott to get of him the day before or something, unless he's keen to come cook for us.

Do it. could only be $50 if we go with spec

Warmed the PostMower(tm) down on this thread. If there is a real problem as to how this, or other events, have been organised, then discussing it on the thread is not the option. Keep it on track please! :)

[djb160]

As long as it's not on a weekend I'm in Nelson (e.g. 6th Nov) Put Green Machine down for a "power" run will you Taylor, cheers.

[bradc]

Where did my post go? I thought I said something about seeing the afr curves on the 2.4 gdi?

As per usual, the post mower is meddling in NZ region posts where it doesn't belong and is removing valid questions and info

HAHA must have set the setting too low.

Why are you interested brad? are you expecting super stoich AFR?

[scott.mohekey]

Put me down for at least a power run.

[bradc]

Under cruise a GDI should be above 20:1. I'm curious to see if at WOT it ever gets anywhere near that high, or if it dips down quite quickly. I trust you normally run it on 98 octane Johnny?

[Johny]

lol nope always 95 only sometimes 98

[bradc]

You should go for a tank of 98 before the dyno

[Johny]

yeah i think i will

[Johny]

so what happened to this?

[taylor]

Soon good sir. just waiting untill the three people doing tuning are happy with there current tunes

[hedric15]

count me in for the tuning part if there's still an available slot..

[taylor]

sure mate, you car will need to be road tuned beforehand.
