We had a group Dyno day at Menai a little while back ... Pulse racing I think it was ...

As I am from the South ... I go to Ricol @ Peakhurst ... They have built/service all my cars ...

I am not too sure of who has Dyno's in your area ... I use to Live at Putney, and I know that BD4's had a Dyno at Ryde, and I think MRT may also have one ... Think they are now at Rhodes ... As for that, any performance shop in the area should be able to assist...

As for cost ... Well do the ring around.... If it is a dyno + Tune it will cost more... If it is just a Dyno run, then it should not be too much ... I know that Ricol do 3 runs on the Dyno (on club Dyno days) for about $50 ... Pulse did ours for about half that ... But we had a fair few people ...

What is the most power for a N/A FTO .... Well not too sure on that one ... Have seen about 115kw @ wheels I think ... Depending on if the car is tip or man also .. Tips I think are usually in the 90's, and man's are in the 100 mark ... Also depends on the version too ...

I think there was a picture taken of the results board from the dyno day ... Check in the NSW events section ... I may try and find it also ...

Most powerful n/a fto dyno i've heard in Aus is 126kw atw. I believe Bennoz's once achieved this ? But now runs at around 120kw atw. Boris's car had 126kw atw too.

You should ask Spetz for a dyno sheet if he's willing to give it out. Safe to say he owns one of the most worked (bolt on wise) fto engines in Aus.

Stock manual should get anywhere from 90-95kw atw.

I got to 115.6kw atw myself but the project was never finished.

BD4's is gone...has been for awhile. They also had an old mainline dyno one eww (and it also read high).

Btw, price wise you're looking at between $60-$88 for 3 or 4 runs (depends on the place).

Did you get the rpw pipes off him as well? It'd go like the clappers with them on 8)

robsta,

Definitely a nice car...if i didn't have mine i would've bought that one too. And it eventually went for way under what it should've...nice pick!

thanks a lot ,ROCK_IT !! i think MRT is the closet place but they charge $150 for 3 dyno runs...i think its too expensive ...
my fto is YELLOW GPX MANUAL 95MODEL , LIMITED EDITION..only done the exhaust and intake system..67000KMS ...excellent condition...i hope my fto can get around 105kws atw..i will post some pics later on..
I will probably go for Richol.. anyone got address?

Oh so you the one who got Borris's ride, lucky you, he love his FTO like a baby.

Yeah I've got the dyno graph of Boris, Grant and Pete's FTO (all ACT members), from memory Grant got the highest output of the three.

I had clutch die at 188hp... at 3,500rpm... and it was rising quickly...


aiming for 300hp when its back in a few weeks... but have been warned it may creep over the 500hp mark with it setup for power...



but its not N/a...


Most powerful N/A engine would be the Freak built by RPW.... hasnt been put in a FTO yet as i dont think anyone has enough balls or cash to get it...

would be over 160kw though
