Yup, sae is inflated at elevation, cf in half is about right. That would be
479whp and 440wtrq, slipping clutch not helping I am sure.
Dave-ship, point was that I road tuned it and got 10whp more in the summer over what the car made in the winter, and with marginal clutch, that is all, not that it really is 513whp at sea-level, more like 475whp or somthing.
Tuning wizard: Well I have learned a lot and think I know a good bit about principals and theories and what works in the real world. I do have good data logging equipment and can make a cutom tune run strong, yet safe. I have been able to take a few cars with tunes that were not quite right for the mountain air and make them run strong, yet at safe a/f levels with safer timing in my opinion.
My post was to show what the differences are after you can road tune a little bit and the biggest gains to me were the drivability at part throttle and warm up. I look forward to driving it now as opposed to trying to avoid traffic and slow moving conditions before.
The one turbo, gt3071wg that ate itself had a poorly machined out turbine housing from forced performance, Nick put it on his car for a test and it almost ate his turbo as well
Motor now is a year old and has 12k on it and is running strong. First motor was pushed very hard for stock pistons, drag racing with nitromethane in the w/m mix with advanced timing and 30psi +...
I am no great tuning god, I am just learing how it all works now, feel the 300bhp tunes are pretty easy, have lots of good tunes with lots of good information to compare and contrast and hundreds of hours now testing and playing with bin files.
I just made one comment on the look of you're dyno graph with the squiggly line and suggested you might want to consider w/m injection since you like to push you're car as hard as I do mine
A little extra knock protection is never a bad thing
Since I put my information out there for everyone to comment about. I would like to see Dave's sae and uncorrected posted dyno sheet for comparisons sake.
Mike, how about you? I don't think I have ever seen you post up you're dyno sheet. Lets see the sae and uncorrected from last year at soc.
