123 kw at the wheels seems somewhat low :? as when i had the car they got 152kw at the wheels! When i ran it it was in 3rd gear not 4th and to my knowledge hksfto has not been derestricted :lol:What fuel were you running? I used mobil s8000,also having a cai fitted may have caused a restriction though i havent seen how youve set it up.

Thank you Scracy, now you had confirm what I had suspected all along, I got 125kwatw with 3rd gear before, & as I said its just plan weird to me for someone dyno cars on a gear which was designed for cruising. :roll:

W.R & Mil, looks like we have to do another dyno run with two fans & running on 3rd gear :wink:

Scracy!!

Awsome to see your still around dude.

I think the limiter has a bit to do with that figure. The power output flattend out a bit during the mid-range, but really started to pick up again towards the end. Climed 12kw between 150 and 170kph where is stopped dead. No RPM figure makes the whole thing hard to judge, but I'd say she was easy on target for >135kw.

Give it 3rd gear and I'd say mystery solved. :?

Thought a bit about the CAI. It's done wonders down low, where i'm getting noticably more torque for fewer rpm. :twisted: The front of the box isn't closed at all, so there "should" be plenty air.


BP Ultima.

You should poke your nose in here more often.
I know a lot of the guys here would love to hear more from you.

Scracy back

Wildride when i had a dodgy torque converter i still managed 135 kw atw so yeah definatly something wrong there :? btw im getting married to my apprentice wife of the last five years so if any one wants to come (looking at toni,kev,mikey in particular) pm me for futher details.
Cheers Guys

Make sure u do it on 3rd, & not 4th like what happen to us, as the 4th is overdrive for Tip, it a gear for Hwy cruising.

How much they charging you Max?? & What time you going?
