I'm wrapped with the ute ... will stay at about 240rwkw (ramping the boost the other way to APS) for a couple of thousand clicks ... check the tranny oil etc etc ... then go absolutely nuts with the thing :lol: :lol: cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 17/07/03 06:03 AM Share Posted 17/07/03 06:03 AM At the Melb dyno day a couple of the manual T's got 210rwkw and a couple of the auto's got 201-202rwkw in standard form with aircleaner still in car and standard too. (I think one of the manual's had air cleaner out). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I think one of the manual's had air cleaner out). G.Do you remember on the dyno day how they were measureing output eg,What gear all the cars were in and if a shootout mode was used.I did ask APS when doing my car why there is so much difference in power outputs between cars and they said gear selection was critical plus shootout mode must be used to get a common result.Was it a dyno dynamics dyno?.Seems strange that there is such a big difference in rwkw figures between standard cars?.What was the lowest to highest figures recorded on that day.There has to be a answser to all this.The common result from the 6-7 cars aps had done standard was 189-192 rwkw.Manual and auto.

I agree, quite a large variation ... 185-210 ....cheersXRTs rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
