TDi Dyno Day Results thread :)

Marker to collate all results

All discussion in here please

For anyone that didn't attend, all figures are at the wheel and no attempt has been made to 'guess' flywheel figures.

I'll start it off..........

simonprelude 1997 3.2
bhp related mods - standard
max power 259.3 bhp @ 7220 rpm
max torque 201.8 lb-ft @ 6450 rpm

[markc]

Markc 1997 3.2 (Type S)
bhp related mods - Exhaust (Dali RR)
max power 273.6 bhp @ 7250 rpm
max torque 207.9 lb-ft @ 6560 rpm

Lets get all the results in first but it would seem we've confirmed that the exhaust makes a big differance.

NoelWatson 2004 3.2

Looks like it, maybe due to special type S extra powers!

Gives you 304bhp as well Mark! Acomparison of all the fly figures along with any other dyno results would be good to try and see what consistency there is and if there's a more accurate multiplier than (1.111111) that we can apply to the figures.

Hi Luke, the Type S myth is busted, Paul's car (Senninha) pipped mine and the other Paul (NSX200) was real close. Both, as well as me, have non factory exhausts. Look at Leigh's (Kowalski) numbers for what a 3.0Ltr car is capable of with exhaust mods, just make sure you have your fingers in your ears

A top event and some properly useful data and comparisons have been recorded.

The guys at TDI really know their stuff! Project "airbox" starts now...

[Senninha]

....... he says with a big wide smile

Senninha 1998 3.2 Targa ... been telling you all Targa's are the best model
bhp related mods - H&S exhaust + Procar airbox
max power 274.1 bhp @ 7290 rpm
max torque 209.5 lb-ft @ 6450 rpm

Very interesting chat with Sam of TDI as to how to overcome the air/fuel mix issues to release those extra ponnies. I'll email SOS and ask the question re throttle bodies and update if I get any answers

Great to meet up and sorry I couldn't get there earlier for all the runs.

regards, Paul

VEry impressive results ... especially from Leigh :O)

IT seems that some 3.0s keep their power well and others are a bit lacking - there were a couple that were a bit down on power last time.

Really gutted I couldn;t make it; with the procar box on S5, the larini exhaust and decat pipes I'm sure I would have given Paul a really good run for his money! (Obviously I would say that wouldn't I!!)

Paul let me know how you get on with the throttle bodies Sounds liek a good plan to get her over 300!

Well done.

Luke
