Still here somewhere........
you have seen my dyno i realy need help
Yes you do need help dinger , but before you need a flashed ecu you need to get your boost stable , moving the fuel cut is the last thing you want to do before then
mmmm Nice ,
Stock car with no boost altered from stock we managed an 16 bhp atw gain and a nice splodge of torque as well , still remaining very safe
Fully modded car , with boost and fuel tweaks we managed a nice gain of around 30-40 bhp .
Both cars had issues which stopped us pushing further , the stock car was suffering from unstable boost , we were not able to get stable runs back to back from it without any tweaks . The fully modded one was waiting for big numbers but was running far too lean (needs fuel pump) to start pushing hard .
So a good day as we have now proved that we can tune the PFL ecu and that all our maps are lined up correctly , Next stage is to go back in early April and build the final maps etc .
Anyway enough rubbish spoken , thanks Ben for the excellent Dyno control and being a good host as normal ,see you in April
Congrats John all looks very promising.
NJ: I wish you'd said you were doing this today. I would have hung about for a while longer. I guess the Rohanne Galant I saw on the way out was one of your 'victims'. Nice to meet you, briefly!
Sorry Buddy , as I entered I shout to ben asking who you were so i could say hello so only just mamaged a quick Hello
Yeah the red galant was Kinhyafro's (yep victim sounds good )
Didn't hink anyone would be interested in just watching a car sat on a dyno ofr 6 hours
I'm a saddo!Originally Posted by Nutter_John
what mods were on the modded car what figures did you guys get
should i be buying a fuel pump to go along with the afr and proper boost gauge (getting rid of the stepper)
The modded car has intercooler , downpipes , 3" exhaust , air fliter , VTA bov , Blitz boost controller
The fuel pump should be done as part of the early mods as it is an easy mod that gives you a safety margin
I have now seen two cars on the rollers which are running high afrs on full chat and making nice number but with not much margin for a bad tank of fuel , this is down to a weak fuel pump ( was in TAR;'s case )
@0.8 the car made 295 bhp and 330 ft/lbs , there is more there I would say over 300 and 350 ft/lbs
thoughs numbers make me think even more how the hell my car is doing it with with no ecu tuning and think even more how the hell it did it before the intercooler ,ebc,plug,atf and engine oil changes
you never got an afr reading off the dyno did ya ?
not this time last time he did say my fueling was all over the place but i never seen the figures
well don't do anything else without getting some AFR readings as you may be running lean as feck ( thats where your power could be ) .
every time you went on the dyno he should have been watching the numbers and given you a print out , for instance all of the results I did today I got the AFR's so that I can reffer to them whilst reading the maps , I then know where I changed things and how much difference it made
Be careful dinger: you could be on your way to much more 'BANG' per buck than you hoped for. You should save your money from dyno runs, etc and use it to pay an expert to sort your fuelling and boost out. If you're unlucky you could be searching for a replacement engine. I don't wish to scaremonger or be over dramatic but something is going on with your car as many on here have previously advised. Take heed, dude. Let's be careful out there!
ye she on low boost untill its sorted no fuel cut nothing happy car
dunc at hypertech is normaly good and pretty much saying the same things iv been told on here ie shorten and check all boost lines , the actuators ,get rid or the stepper boost gauge for a propper one ,get an afr wideband , get new fuel pump all the good stuff
This is just afr/timing no boost adjustment
Car is a stock pfl auto on stock boost except for
K&N panel filter
2.5" decat pipe(on a stock exhaust)
GFB Hybrid BOV(60% recirc/40%VTA)
Fuel was shell 99 octane
I also have a photo of the modded cars dyno sheet which is far more interesting but figured I'd leave publishing that to the owner.
Just done an 80 mile trip on a map with tweaked AFR's and the car feels significantly improved. I also fancy that the turbos whine a little earlier in the rev range and the engine sounds better (but that could just be in my head).
Interesting how much troubleshooting info you get from a dyno (3 issues identified on 3 cars). Next time mine will be running a boost controller.
Stock map = blue lines
Graph looks nice. Good job.
