Cheers, I did assemble the motor in my lounge room, but after I made about 420awkw the rest was done on the dyno.

 

I reckon anyone could achieve what I've done with about 30k, if they did the work and tuning themselves.

 

I did an oil and filter change too this morning before I tuned it, as it was definitely due!

 

But yerp 953awhp ain't 1000awhp so gonna have to see what the turbo has left in it...

  • Did some tuning today. Apparently gapping the plugs did the trick cos straight away it ran up 605awkw with no tune changes.   I frigged around with fuel and boost and this and that, and mana

    Got to the dyno today and it went pretty much as I expected. The exhaust showed to be a huge restriction but we all knew that anyway. The first run right off the bat showed 367awkw on 16psi and after

    Here's the graph. I had to run it in 3rd to get a number as I was hitting a speed limiter in 4th and was too tardled to work out how to remove it. I disabled it in the vid block, changed it in the tun

That’s a doosie mate ;)

 

Whats your thoughts on what you seen while tuning and upon reflection on that graph ? 
 

was this in full AWD mode on the Dyno ?

The dyno is in 4x4 traction stability mode. I ramped it at 170.

 

I could have ramped it in a lot slower I reckon. I was a bit worried about the trans but even on the road it is ok. It reaches 24ish psi by 3950 on the road and is about 1000rpm later on the dyno. Iats were a lot higher on the dyno than the road which doesn't help much.

 

Also cheap silicone couplers swell up like balloons with 30+psi in them :declare:

 

What are your thoughts on the recent progression/graph etc? @JETURBO

#804

The progression is good Nathan, it’s always a shame that one gain costs a low loss but that’s the world we live in. 
 

It does seem that there’s a flow restriction maybe hence nearly 90 odd Kw drops off in the top end but could be a variety of things at play 

 

The aeroflow looks to be going well which is good

Flow restriction would be the head

I had a look through the logs just now and it reaches peak power at 5900rpm then falls over from there.

 

I reckon the cam timing is affecting it a fair bit. From what I've found out recently, a zero zero cam gear setting is miles off what it should be. This will be fixed next weekend and retuned after.

 

I still have the stock lower half of the intake manifold in there and I also have a venom 5 inch cat as well. Both of these could be holding it back a bit and all of this can be tested. I can make up a decat pipe fairly easily to see how much difference it makes.

 

Fwiw these cams are designed for 1200 to 1800hp and I'm still a good 100 crank hp away from that.

I'll have to look through the dyno graphs again. I went up incrementally in boost so I have 5 or 6 different power level graphs to compare.

 

I think it started dropping the top end at 550awkw or so.

I live half an hour from anywhere so a beer will suffice :roflmbo:

That's an excuse to do another quick YouTube video of it roasting the tyres when launching now...
