It's different than the Dyno Dynamics AWD I was using at work, but it won't take me long to have it sorted 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724650 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely needs some boost added to it, maybe I can talk the owner into it 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724656 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a bunch of steady state tuning and made a lot of low end gains. One spot went from 28kw up to 40kw, that's huge! Also made a bit more power up top. That's pretty good for an old school 5 litre! 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Andrew Gold Donating Members 2,036 Member For: 9y 11m 21d Gender: Male Location: Canberra ACT Posted 18/10/24 05:54 AM Share Posted 18/10/24 05:54 AM I'm impressed by this.I found that slapping in some boost and then being sensible with fuel and ignition timing isn't super hard if you do your research, use your noggin and do some data logging. Even if your results are only 80% of what a pro would get, you've still made a very sizeable difference.Making noticable gains without being able to increase air quantity - different ball game.

Maybe I'll chuck the wife's lancer on for sh*ts and giggles. 11 minutes ago, El Andrew said: Even if your results are only 80% of what a pro would get Bruh...why you gotta do me like that?!

I meant people in general and specifically me, when compared to a pro. Not you! That would have been very harsh! 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724661 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also get all the gains if you know how much timing to run on E85. Knowing how to do those things is the trick and using a dyno will certainly give you an edge for future road tuning. I'll get the mower out later and see what it makes lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes very rich up top, I reckon just a fuel change would get it to 90kw. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/2/#findComment-1724670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
