Well finally got around to doing that dyno thing

Where is my badge?

Video and graph to come later

Being a Mustang he had issues with rpm so the graph is off rpm wise 400-500 rpm along with he only took it up to 6400rpm or so. I told him to take it to the rev limiter but I guess he didn't want to. Looks like it is still making power up top with the stock intake and head

Very true, because of that they couldn't get it right, he said autos are a bit of a pita because of that.


any truth to the mustang's reporting less WHP than what is really being producted?

All the guys at the shop told me their dyno for sure reads low and on another dyno I should see 320+whp or so.

He didn't, he just came along for the ride, no point in a dyno on the green car when it is going to get torn apart and sold. And on the dyno you just go 2->4 and then dyno so no need for 3rd

linuxman51
10-21-2009, 03:39 PM
any truth to the mustang's reporting less WHP than what is really being producted?

in this case, doesn't really matter as the trap speed of the vehicle in question is close enough to what it dynoed, I'd say its fairly accurate.

Any dyno can be made to read high or low or anywhere in between. the dynojet we have in montgomery has been nice to us in that we can dyno a car and then reasonably predict what it will do at the track, and then you can back-calculate the power from the mph and its right there.

Others do not, and typically an inertial dyno like a dynojet will read higher than other types.

I was hoping 260-270whp to be happy but this was great. Even the guy in the dyno after the first real pass got out and made a comment about stupid fast little volvo. I guess he wasn't expecting it to make that kind of power.

Just as, if not even better.

I have pretty much zero issues with the car, starts up every time, runs like a champ, does 17-18mpg mixed @20psi driving hard from time to time, on the highway if I can keep it under 65 it should do 22+mpg.

Now that I have much much better tires it hooks up really well and tire spin is not even an issue 95% of the time.

Wow man, congrats. Pretty cool to see 8 valve power. Gives me hope that my project will end up ok (Or I will blow everything up throwing that HRC Super16g on a high compression N/A motor).

So what does the block have in it? What's the specs / flow rate on that turbo? Why such big injectors? Any other supporting mods (electrical, suspension, etc)?

Just curious! Always helps to see how others are doing it.

thelostartof
10-21-2009, 06:58 PM

Well see here is the funny part

Old setup was same just had a 531 that was cracked(remember the pics from my thread) and the 531 was also ported on the exhaust side by me. So I installed the header and put back on a stock 530 head in place of a 531 (ex side ported) and pretty well ported 90+. At the track I picked up 4mph. So figure almost a 40whp gain over my old setup.

hard to say if the header was a big case of that gain or having a head with 6+ cracks in it along with sucking coolant into #3 was slowing the old setup down. Either way it does spool a good bit quicker and pulls pretty hard up top.

Either way now that I finally have a dyno of the car I have another mod which I promise ya'll I will be able to prove how much whp you gain from it.

I need to get a stock car here to dyno and then do all of the bolt ons and redyno one at a time to try to get some rolling numbers over time for ya'll but we will see when i can afford another stock turbo car

Just curious! Always helps to see how others are doing it.

Turbo specs from when I first got it are close to a GT35 compressor and a stage 4 turbine wheel(doesn't exist). Injectors are big because I sized them that way so I had room to grow. Being I am only running them at 2.5bar now means I can still go to 3bar, 3.5bar, 4bar for more fuel after that I need larger injectors but I do not know if I will push those limits.

I have Dales Wilwood kit I need to get the rest of the funds to install otherwise, HD's all around, 2 coils cut diesel springs in front, and stock wagon springs in back(will be lowered once we get the fenders rolled.

Otherwise almost all other mods are up top on what i did to get it done, also innovate XD-16 WB,knocksense from Boris, and prosport boost guage is pretty much it.

I am willing to bet if you did it right you can copy my setup for $2000-2500.

I plan on getting another stock car and building a clone of my car just doing a dyno after every engine mod to show the gains from each mod over time. After that Either sell it, or throw a lot of nitrous at it and then scrap it.

Otherwise the short block is bone stock never been opened

no. as you make more power, your gear ratios get lower, not higher... you need the gear to get to the end within the rev limit. I'm about out of gear with the 3.73 @ 8k, 3.54 could be a very real possibility here really soon.

Yep. When I eventually replace my axle I'm thinking about something more in the 3.23 range. Not having an OD makes this especially useful.

Actually from my reading back then the he341 is a fake name

real name is hy35cw, that is even what it says on the wg actuator.

either way the he351 is a larger compressor wheel and housing and should flow a bit more up top

You've got me stumped on this new big mod you're talking about, unless it's a supercharger or an intake I'm outta guesses. What's it like switching from a small quick spooling Mitsu turbo to a huge relatively quick spooling Holset? I've never driven a mitsu car but they seem to spool crazy quick and early on.

And I can't stand those HKS blow off valves, but that's just me.
