Default My dyno numbers.... untuned.

Well, I took my Civic and my Teg to the dyno today and the numbers were really disappointing.

The Civic:
Boost is set at 10 psi on TurboXS sMBC. I realized that my boost would spike at 10 psi but will only hold at 8 psi. The problem is, if I adjust my MBC to 10 psi, it will more likely spike to 12 psi. Anything above 11psi on an AFC "hack" will throw a CEL/MIL on a MAP code and will surely place my ECU on a limp mode. My civic is also untuned on the VAFC "hack".

This is way lower than I expected, but I'm not gonna sit here and lie to everybody that my car is powerful. The torque is amazing tho. I guess I'm not done with my Civic yet. I wish I had installed my GReddy profecB before taking it to the dyno. To top it off, my stock clutch is almost gone after trying to race my friend's Del Sol B18C5...... dayyym, that's another couple of hundreds. Anyway, here's the sheet:


The Integra:
JDM B18C ITR with help from DC 4-1 header, Apexi N1 cat-back, test pipe, spoon cam gears, LSD. The torque is lost I think because of the high flow exhaust system. None to minimum back pressure. As you can see, VTEC created so much power. Without VTEC kickin in, this teg would be powerless. These numbers definitely forced me to order more of the major components for the set-up. I now have the T3T04e 57T A/R and 63 A/R turbine, and SFP race manifold enroute. Here's the chart:

Look how much smoother the boosted run was. Where are the A/F readings?

It was just a dyno pass. No tuning involved. It was supposed to be an HP competion. I just wanted to see how much power my car have already. $50 for 2 runs.... not bad I think....

Oh, I see. So you could have squeezed some more power out of her. Don't be dissapointed. It's still untuned.

<<<<never been on a dyno

Pffff. Vtec doesn't make any horsepower, it just switches cam profiles. Without vtec that engine could make the same amount of power, but it just would get bad fuel economy and emissions.
