APS Power/Torque/Price numbers

[Wazza2]

We only get premium up north but I still think that my 200rwkw on an APS phase1 is a bit slack what does everybody else think. I started with 170rwkw

200rwkw's is a bit low for a APS I. That being said I think that a 30rwkw gain is great. I think you would find that if you took your car down south as is, and used Optimax or similar that your rwkw's would be alot higher. I have lived in Cairns and the heat and lower quality petrol would both be bringing your reading down.

I think if you go by the gains the chip has made that you should be happy.

I have to agree with Geea, the gain from you standard reading wasnt to bad. I remeber mine gained about 15rwks with good fuel.

I think you will find that the brand of dyno utilised may be the reason for the lower than expected power reading, by the way does your car have a manual or auto trans?

Let me know what brand of dyno the installer used to test the power, this may shine some light on the issue.

I certainly will let you know, I hope to achieve 1:28 or less but I am still investigating brakes, Brembo are probably the answer but very expensive, however I am prepared to pay for the right results, that is why you look after my car.

Any suggestions on tyres on hopefully a dry day? (currently std Dunlops)

Last effort was 1:34 without chip (standard BATXR6) so I really need all the help I can get now with the 273 @ rear wheels to get times down and stay on the track with the ability to stop.

Thanks for your interest

Mate if you can lap sandown in a 28 or lower this would be an excellent lap time for what is basically an every day street car. By the way what rubber are you using for the track days? :lol:

I think 200 rwkw's is a bit ordinary for a ph1 ....I had that stock in shoot6 mode

Definitely could be a fuel problem but your missing power somewhere

[Guest dingah]

Dont think so...as Peter states depending on the dyno and an auto transmission those numbers appear quite normal and could equate to around 260-270 FWKW. There are many variables at play.

Yep Pete, I may be dreaming at 1:28 but I am certainly going to give it a go, I did the 1:34s prior to you chipping the car on standard fitted Dunlops, but as suggested brakes were not the best, combined with Auto. I was still pleased with these times for a standard XR6 T but now I have your phase 11 I feel the extra power in the short straights will help a lot combined with the Brembo brakes I intend to fit prior to my next run. Still waiting for recommendations on tyres [/b]which will make a big difference, even though I was pleasantly surprised at the performance of the Dunlops at 45 psi. Any suggestions for a race tyre for all round track work wet & dry would be appreciated.

Hey Dingah dont mean to pick on your sig. But Citurs Acid?

[Guest dingah]

Good one Worpur.......perhaps it refers to the plural of Citric - ie you and I = us, anyway.....BUGGER! Great colour though! Had an old fart pull out in front of me today and when we were alongside at the lights I shouted that SURELY he couldn't claim not to have seen a car in that colour!...even he saw the funny side.

PS did you get the auto box modded and do you know what mods they did?

Cheers,
