Hey guys got my ute tuned on the weekend by Matt @ bpr, at Daltons dyno in Geelong, didnt get the numbers I was hoping for with the mods but apparently valve springs were holding up and the only thing restricting me from 280-290 rwkw is the waste gate actuator. not sure how to read these dyno graphs but the mid range torque is amazing, the car pulls very hard now and doesnt stop. Next step is the actuator and a re-tune then il be happy with my daily drive. a quick note, Matt took me for a drive in his 400 rwkw supercharged GS ute, Holy fu$k im addicted, the thing lights up putting the boot in at 100klph, and the sound of the coyote mixed with the relentless pull of the supercharger, absolutely amazing, might start saving as I think these will be the next cult modding ford

What boost and mods are you running to make that power? Notice much difference with the custom tune?

I'm considering to go see Matt as well when I get time. Hoping to get around 280rwkw too.

Might be worth while just going down for a spin in the GS haha. Sounds awesome!

Boost is hitting around 13 or 14, then dropping off, havnt really watched the gauge yet, its got k&n filter, wog cooler, 42lb injectors, ballistic 100cpi cat, walbro 340 fuel pump, so you can see why is expected more power but as Matt said the actuator is letting it down, on a cold day it would prob hit 270 kw, but the mid range is amazing which is what I want, Matt is a great guy and becoming a great tuner, il be doing the actuator and going back to him, that should keep me happy until I upgrade, yeah the GS is wild

Disagree :stupid:

It all depends on the timing. I think that boost level is quite normal.

Some tuners use more boost with less timing while others use less boost with more timing.

It might max at 14psi drop to around 8-10 and hold it there due to the actuator.. Also what Adam said. But I agree it could be higher, but not all the cars are the same..

260@14psi is normal huh? Not likely.

That's right.

My old BA made 260 on 15. It also made 300 on 15 with other hardware.

My current sedan makes 300 on 12.

The hardware used will also play a big part.

The cars only running a wog cooler. You can't expect too much from it.

My BA MKII has 270rwkw with 13psi, it hads more boost and less timing. But the tuner said if I put a exhaust on it that will drop to 10 psi for that power.
