markxr6t Member 476 Member For: 20y 3m 25d Location: Perth WA Posted 14/12/05 07:01 AM Share Posted 14/12/05 07:01 AM Hi allPut the car on a dyno today to check out whats up after running consistent 14s at Motorplex regardless of which tune I was running. Fastest run that night was with Factory Tune (14.1).Green Line: 8psi CAPA Tune - 320.5 rwhpBlue Line: 10psi CAPA Tune - 310 rwhpRed Line: Factory Tune - 303 rwhp03 Manual T. 2nd CAI and K&N, Ultimate 98.Looks like the 10 psi tune aint getting anywhere near 10 psi and you can see the surging. Wastegate actuator perhaps?I know I need a custom tune and will get one as soon as the SCT software has data logging capability, but is it possible the car could have this much power with its factory tune?Terry at MCE said its the highest run he's seen a standard boost T do.Any comments or interpretations?ThanksMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this an old CAPA box?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markxr6t Member 476 Member For: 20y 3m 25d Location: Perth WA Posted 14/12/05 08:09 AM Author Share Posted 14/12/05 08:09 AM So to get the current tunes do I go back to the vendor of the box or send my box to CAPA?Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street Tuner Member 727 Member For: 22y 2m Posted 14/12/05 08:17 AM Share Posted 14/12/05 08:17 AM Send you box to CAPA asking for the current version, I think you will be pleasantly surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did make a few different sounds from the BOV but that was it.A while ago I had my stock Mk1 (T5) on the dyno at Genie and it showed 298 rwhp. After loading the 10psi tune, I put it on the dyno at D&T in Wangara and it only showed 195 rwkw. Jason (M6 XR6T) spent all of two minutes changing a few parameters on the CAPA tune and all of a sudden it was making 245rwkw. This is still not ideal, I am sure that a proper custom tune would be a lot better but at least I can certainly notice a difference when driving now. The mid range is a lot stronger and it really likes to rev now (pitty I didn't have this done before the last cruise)!Anyway, I am sure that you will be much happier once you have a proper custom tune done. I plan on doing it as soon as I get some injectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
