My day at the dyno

[05xd]

I would post up the dyno papers but windows vista is the biggest pos os i've ever come across.My digicam software will not work with it.So here are the disapointing numbers.
This was at 10psi.It wouldn't boost past 10psi?!?!

Run #1
HP 178.1 @4689 rpm/76.8 mph
TQ 210.8 @3863 rpm/63.6 mph

Run#2
HP 187.2 @5217 rpm/85.2 mph
TQ 204.5 @3770 rpm/62.2 mph

Run #3
HP 174.8 @4780 rpm/78.4 mph
TQ 223.7 @3427 rpm/56.5 mph

nice torque.

disappointing hp numbers yes, but nice torque numbers. torque is what makes you beat hondas!

[05xd]

indeed.I was like WTF?!?!?!?
The only thing I can think is that with the stock compression ratio and the higher boost,the ecm is retarding the timing causing power to drop.I have the same exact set-up minus the de-comp plate that Toy has.He also said that the hp and tq numbers dropped off after 5500 rpm.

[KeWLKaT]

hmm at least now you know when to shift ;)

[05xd]

I felt like crying when he showed me the first number lol.He tried to re-assure me that it wasnt as bad as a LT-1 Camaro that came in and put down a massive 220 to the wheels

[KeWLKaT]

bwaahahahhaha

its ok man

maybe you just need a few mods to make this better ;)

[BobMs_wht2k2]

270hp at the crank. . . 220 t the wheels. . . 18% loss through the drivetrain on an auto is about right. Try that with an LS1 though. . . ;)

Peak hp/tw is fine and all, but what are the curves like? What's the average? Is it peaky or flat curves?

I know most people focus on the peak power and that's all they care about. Butwhat makes a good driver is one with a smooth linear curve. You don't have to have the most power, just the most usable power.

[FordFasteRR]

nice #'s for 10 psi.

It looks good to me !!!

and this is why hondas suck right there :D

[BobMs_wht2k2]

and this is why honDUHs suck right there :D
:cool:

[slow 2K2GT]

wow, good numbers for sure. I am getting more and more excited to see what numbers I can produce...these numbers are with your new IC in place right?

[toymachine566]

awsome, nice numbers man

your tourque numbers are cloe to mine and your on stock compression, right? I think when I do the motor swap I will be keeping stock compression also. Still dont know yet.

Keep up the good work :)

and this is why hondas suck right there :D
:abovelol: :abovelol: :D :D ,




i love those numbers keep it up.hondas beware hyundia's are up in coming hard and strong

[jrod13]

You guys think too much like domestic owners. Once your moving HP is more important then torque. Torque just makes you feel like it's going faster. That's why you see all motor Honda's running 12's and only making 200lb/ft of torque at that.

[yamaha]

Good numbers, I would of like to see you break 200whp, especially at 10psi, do you have a boost controller at all?

Those numbers sound about right. I think they are pretty good and over 200 in torque is great for a car under 3000 lbs.

[cclngthr]

Numbers are consistant to what I have heard. Are you running any fuel management systems in addition to the ECM?

There are upgrades to the camera's driver software for Vista. My camera works with it. Why can't you scan the graphs?

lol, I dont think you'll see any all motor hondas making 200 lb-ft of torque.

HP is just a function of torque, gears multiply torque, you get the idea. you make 150 lb-ft all the way to 8,000 rpm...you put in lower gears and you've got the torque you need to boogie down the track.

[Cypher]

like i said. powerband and gearing :)
