pkaboo Member 38 Member For: 19y 3m 28d Posted 30/04/12 10:54 AM Share Posted 30/04/12 10:54 AM (edited) Hey guys,I recently had my car run up on the dyno to check the power level and was quite suprised at the result....The car is an FG XR6T 6spd auto with Rapid Systems intake pipe and XR8 airbox as the only mods, which are both proven to add little to no power.256rwkw at 9.5psi in 3rd gear on Graham West Dyno in Adelaide. Brett was very shocked at the result and said that most FG's that he gets through make around 220.... He also went as far to say that he thought the car was tuned, as he said that tuned FG's are only putting out between 260 and 270 on his dyno. AFR's were 13 coming on boost, 12 through most of the rev range and dropping to 11.5 at 5700rpm.The inlet temp was 31 degrees at 2260rpm rising to 50 degrees at 5580, which I assume would be expected with the standard cooler??!The concerning part for me is the injector duty cycle, as it hits 100% at 4300rpm and continues like that till redline. Is this an issue? It seems like an issue! Brett said it's ok providing I don't get a sh*t batch of fuel or something, and even then, it MAY not cause an issue...Cheers Edited 30/04/12 10:55 AM by pkaboo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkaboo Member 38 Member For: 19y 3m 28d Posted 30/04/12 11:07 AM Author Share Posted 30/04/12 11:07 AM The number itself means f*ck all to me, I'm more concerned about the injector duty cycle. I'm still surprised at the number it's making in comparison to others on the same dyno though !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkaboo Member 38 Member For: 19y 3m 28d Posted 30/04/12 11:24 AM Author Share Posted 30/04/12 11:24 AM So it's not something I need to be overly concerned about??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
