We had our spring opener local dyno day yesterday. I was the first one on the rollers. I was pretty satisfied with the results. This was AWD horsepower on a dyno dynamics, running E85. Boost was pretty steady at 23psi. My AFR's are all over the place as I've only done some street tuning so far this spring. I'm hoping to dyno tune it next week, and hopefully that'll get me a little bit more out of her.

Dr.Boost

It looks like it gets fun after 4500.

power starts falling at 5700rpms. im not saying it isnt fun to drive, I have a evo...same platform, love driving that car...but the boost doesnt kick in until 4500rpms...and it falls at around 5700.

Ya still powder coating. Austin and I just did some coating a few hours ago actually, and took him for a few rippers. I'll let him chime in on if the car is fun or not.

Specs are a built 2.0 with eagle rods/mahle pistons, HKS 272 cams, PTE SCM50 turbo, tuning with DSMLink, revving to 8k. This was also with about 30 minutes of quick street tuning on the way to the shop. I'm setting up some time next week to get it tuned on the dyno, because my street tuning wasn't too hot since I can't log my wideband. The guy who will be doing the tuning is pretty good so hopefully he can work a little magic. It does seem to spool later then I'd expect, but really it isn't too bad because when I'm shifting at 8k, I'm still well above 4500 and spool is immediate.

I was going to the event, expecting to hopefully break the 300hp mark since I really didn't change much from my last tune where I made 284, except that I am now on e85, switched from FFWD cams to HKS cams, and about 3psi more. The e85 has pretty much eliminated all knock problems I had before and is what made the most difference. So I was pretty happy with the results since I was expecting something more like 310.

I wasn't quite at 25 psi. I told them to put 25 psi when they were strapping it down on the dyno, but during the two pulls, it was closer to 23.

What do you drive again?
