Valid Question i feel....

So how come you get a massive 40 plus BHP gain then from Dastek Day[*-)]

Before you all start, this is not a dig as plenty of you know, Peter too, i have a lot of time for Peter and consider him a friend[:)]

He knows i PMed him on first appearance of this thread [:o]

Strange.............That this can happen without a remap, Dont you agree?

On the Dastek day in Dalgety Bay, Pete's car only hit 1.2bar on the rollers and the car was mapped for 1.6-1.7bar.

On Sunday the target boost level, 1.6bar, was achieved and the extra power was released

Grant, This does not explain why it never did at dastek though, And now it does? It hit 1.4 at Dastek

Nothing has changed on the car, map not tweaked so why is the boost differant now?

This man answer the question for me.

It was all about hitting target boost that day[:o]

The first run of the day produced a figure of 371bhp for Pete but again at only at 1.2bar, an increase of 11bhp over Dalgety Bay but i believe this extra bhp came from the better cooling of the whole of the intercooler and induction.  The car was then rolling roaded in 5th and the target boost of 1.6bar was hit and the subsequent results came through on the vidiprinter

Pete's management system will advance the ignition in relation to the temp of the charge entering the cylinders.

looks like peter now has the most powerful newage on the mainland running a standard block.

hartimer har har har hartimer har.

i take it this means even more wonga will get thrown about to beat it.

good result Pierre, im proud of you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You only hit full boost in top gear yes?

So why are all cars not dynoed in this way top gear? Instead its 3rd or 4th?

CraiG

Seems that Pete's car is mapped for full boost in the top 2 gears but his ECU is controlling the boost and a 3rd party unit like an AVC-R would give better boost control in the lower gears>  The AVC-R could be set to vary the duty cycle according to gear and rpm

Second question is way outwith the realms of my knowledge, maybe need to ask Gerry as to why they use 3rd and 4th when dynoing the cars.  Possibly a safety issue spinning the rollers so fast, a fifth gear pull would run the roller s from approx 40mph round to 130mph plus (Not 100% sure on the given speeds per gear on a New Age)  I remember they dynoed Callum's weapon in fifth but he has really short gearing, i mean really short

Well if his first run was 11 bhp up on his dastek run @ the same boost, then we must assume that mine would have been up 11 too Chris [:D]

That according to my sums, In fact would have given me 400.4 bhp[:P][:o]

Mine is bigger than yours na na na boo boo [:-*]

PMSL

Its all in the best possible taste[:)]

Oh and no need for more money....................[H]

I thought you'd given up being a wind up merchant Gumball? Did they alter the ramp rate for the big money run Grant?

The operator could not alter the ramp rate so the Heath Robinson method of using a higher gear was employed.

lol, you know im only commenting cos i want you two to race each other into space with the first to hit 500bhp.

Thats the new target "welcome to challenge 500" for a newage that we can see, smell, touch and talk about, not the makey uppy one we heard about

Posted

ok ok. im sure that will be the end of the modding.

kinda like when i told my ex that when i bought the STI i would leave it standard. ahahahahahahahaahah

Posted

Sounds like a complicated and expensive game this. I'm glad that im happy with my standard power. My hats off to you all for spending the time and money to make 400

Nice result Peter [:o]

Andy

Thanks Andy...I touch goats BTW

Ohhhhh what could that PM be about.

Do tell DCI Lee or are we just to speculate amongst ourselves.

I think he is asking Andy if a Justy ECU will more power
