Who made most HP?

 

diggin the dirty air coming from the exhaust, what did you guys put down on the dyno? Nick did you make your 140 hp goal?

 

It was mostly kickup of dirt from the tar honestly. Mine did the same. My best run was 177 HP 186 torque. Last run was bad but Dave from ESP says its likely due to heat soak. Fun time!

 

I put 141.5 hp at the wheels with something like 155 ft*lb. I was pretty happy - for a motor with 88k. Know that we were running on a MustangDyno, so the numbers can look a little different than if we were on a DynoJet.

I think Austen actually put down the best numbers of anyone there, so kudos to him and his car. The JCW tune really boosts those numbers. Got to see a Justa with an intake and exhaust put down 109 hp at the wheels. That guy had a big smile on his face, and rightly so.

I'm waiting for the videos and photos to upload so that I can show them really quick, but had a great time. Glad that Austen and Ryan came along.

 

We had a blast too! Thanks for letting me know about it. My best run, which to me was disappointing, was 150 HP @ 5748 RMP, 94.2 MPH. Torque was 154.4 @ 3079 RPM, 51.3 MPH.

Dave said the car was probably not up to normal running temps at the time of the dyno. hmmmmm....

Nick, will you be posting on the forum for people without facebook?

 

Austen's first / full run -

 

Yes.

 

My MINI getting strapped down -



And tried to get a good picture for Austen, but we'll say that I had "technical difficulties"... LOL

 

A little more noise from the tires than I'd like, but they're Blizzaks, so what do you expect? LOL



The thing that I was most impressed with was how GOOD everyone's cars sounded. They all sounded just a little bit different, but they all sound great throughout the entire power-band.

 

solid, ill have to join up next time, see how the r53 will do =)

 

wise guy

In other news, I bought summer tires today from Tire Rack. Michelin Pilot Super Sport 215/45/R17. The 215's were $30 cheaper per tire than the 205s...

 

wahoo!!!

wheels?

 

Negative. Didn't buy wheels. Going to run the stockers for at least this season. Might get some small spacers to push them out a little though.

 

I think that's what I am going to do for now too. Save up for FMIC and piping.

 

I think that will be my next big purchase.

 

FMIC is great mod if you plan on getting a tune at some point it also makes a huge difference against heatsoak. I bought the helix in the last group buy they did and I love it. Looks purty :D
