Toymods dyno day

[Screaminrolla]

i made 111.9kw @ wheels, in 4th gear in shootout mode. I was very surprised, i was only expecting around 100kw

[shaohaok]

with a CAI, that sounds about spot on, mate. well done!

do u have a chart you could post?

[Screaminrolla]

yep ive got a CAI

[ADR_rolla]

it that what it should be? or is this power shortage a load of ****

[shaohaok]

i think one of the reasons the gains are that good on the CAI is prolly the CAI making up for what it should have been on the stock box + its own gains.

its almost 1am, i hope it makes sense...

[ADR_rolla]

well where is the Cai comparison to the stock .... and then what should the true reading be inregards to the advertised sportivo?

The comparisons have been posted before, try the forum search tool:

I got 116.5 with CAI, exhaust system, 98 octane fuel and a bottle of octane boost..

an extra 5 kw isnt resonable........

had alot of disputes when i posted my results.

[Screaminrolla]

mike the only disputes with yours was that it was run in third gear instead of fourth or fith

Guys i c we r back to square 1 with the whole dyno story.

Ok with all my mods on my car wen i got mine dyno'ed it only put out just over 110kw. Look at my mods list below for my mods. Now does that mean i have been screwed n my mods havent achieved anything ? Well NO because it was my car dyno'ed on a specific dyno under certain conditions. Now if u really really really wana measure up u need to take the cars down to the same dyno on the same day so that they can b done 1 after the other this is only the most accurate way if u wish to benchmark. And even then it possibly wont b right but at least its closer than comparing dyno sheets from 2 different places. I will explain below y it still can b different.

Also again i posted a huge reply on the forum here as to what a dyno is used for. Its pure purpose is to enable the driver to draw a line in the sand so that when they mod their car they can see if they increased or decreased from that point a dyno is a TUNING tool NOT A MEASUREMENT TOOL.

Ok how about i make things interesting. When i was 100% Stock i watched with amazement as the tuning shop put out 118kw @ wheels. How u ask ???? simply altering the dyno settings and positioning of the heat sensor.

So u will say yeah well i did it in shoot out mode isnt that supposed to be standardised !!!! Well yeah the settings on the dyno will b the same BUT then u forget tyre pressure, quality of petrol, the fan blowing air mayb its providing colder air for some reason, the room pressure, the temperature....etc etc etc i can keep going for ages.

Again simply put a dyno cannot be used for 100% for measuring up boys so to screaminrolla nice figures dude like to c how well they shape up with more mods on ur car & mike i didnt have a problem with your figures the only thing i can say to u though is each time u r gona dyno it u need to peform all the prep work otherwise it truely will b a waste of time & money n u wont know if ur mods u've done have given u an increase.

Cheers
