Something to consider re heat soak, when we talk back to back dyno runs, it pretty easy to understand, but that run through 1 gear only, on the road/track runs normally include rpm runs through several gears, the heat would have built after the run through first, would be increasing more so in 2nd and 3rd etc etc, so power will be falling due to hotter air not being as dense, the ecu pulling spark because of the temps etc etc. The retarded spark may result in hotter combustion temps which may cause slightly higher boost which will cause hotter intake temps etc, basically a circle affect

there's a pwr bolt in on ebay for I think $800.

Well put Mick that's why heat soak is so noticable at the track or drags

how come its so easy for everyone to understand this now....... but when I was trying to explain how muy car made 400+ then got let down at the drags no one could comprehend this factor

its not rocket surgery

if anyones intrested I spent so close to bugger all to get my fg f6 into 11's and a one off 421rwkw dyno its all in the the injectors,actuator,e85 and the fattest tune it can handle but it WILL FALL OVER at half track but still do an 11 second pass get a bloke that can actually tune it hard and use 85 and your power will be there

this isnt a dig at u ratter btw

[JETURBO]

heres a hot tip ladies

60lb dekas -$395

2nd hand flash 3-$495/$595

actuator 12psi $100

hi flow the cat=free

pipe kit so it holds together $380

surge tank $1000

tune cost ...............depends where u go???

fit it all your self easy as sh*t this forum has all the info u need

then get the tuner to tune it on e85 and u get a win situation or either 11's time slip

now how much did that all come to?

But you bought a $40,000+ car isn't it mandatory to blow a heap of cash on it? Even if you don't need to to get results..
