Yesterday dyno'd the car

Dyno

Mod's - K&N Panel Filter Drop-In
Km's - 12,500
Temp - 21 Deg C (According to temp guage in car)
Run - 5th Gear
Tire Pressure - 38 PSI

Finally got my Amuse exhaust. This is the second release of the exhaust where there are less welds on the bends. Difference between Aps and mine nothing except his one is nice and shiny with flamed colours.

Impressions. Sound inside car is nice need to hear it from outside though. Performance wise it feels like it has lost power but will not know until the car is dyno'd with the exhaust.

PS: Just a tip my friend told me about Ti Exhausts. After it has been fitted or tampered with by a human hands make sure u wipe down the exhaust of any finger prints. The Ti's have a tendency to retain the finger marks when it heats up.

nice...

did you buy this with Apsilon?

One thing that people may not see from the pics, the exhaust tips are huge. If you live in a forested area you'll find the local wildlife making a home in the exhaust :P...lol

Looks great.

 

it looks REALLY NICE Man!!!! Love the titanium look!

cheers,

richie

 

Thanks for the kind words.

And Zuff you are correct about the huge tips. I think I need some of those plugs they use to seal up the jet engines on the jet planes.

 

roflmao

now that would be funny!

 

Nice. What did you end up doing resonator wise?

Good baseline power too with only a K&N.

 

Same as yours. I think if I remove it may become too loud in the car.

 

Possibly. I'm not sure what it sounds like outside but it's certainly noticeable inside.

 

Mr Rizk, when are you going to redyno? I'm interested to see if the percentage power gain is equivalent to Apps

 

Hoping for the 27th as I will be leaving tonight for the Jamboree

 

Had the after dyno done. 166.1 kW. The odd thing is after the exhaust the AF Ratio became richer. It is usually the other way round.

 

That's a 15rwkw gain! 50% more than mine!?

 

Aps. Don't forget that mine has more km's on it though

 

Your car or your exhaust? Either way I don't think you're going to see that sort of difference just through km. I was at about 7,000km on the car and at least 600km on the exhaust on the last run.

I'm not too worried although I have the lowest baseline I've seen on that dyno.

 

My car.

Doesn't matter anyway 5kw up or down doesn't make a difference. It is the way the driver "drives" the car.

Yes Harry we know Red is faster regardless

PS: I found a big difference in power deliver after I had done 10,000 kms on my Z

 

True, but every kw counts towards bragging rights

I'm only up to 9,000 so I'll wait and see if I feel any difference after 10

BTW I should ask if you're happy with the Amuse.

 

woot! I'm about 1000kms from 10000 too.

can't wait

 

Yeah I'm happy with the Amuse. I wish it was a tad louder but strangely enough I believe mine is louder than yours. It sounds similar to a BTCC I've been told.

I would be interested to see the dyno sheet of Zuff's exhaust that has the AF ratio on it to compare since mine actually became richer after the exhaust.

Looking at the dyno sheet compared to mine and Zuff's, mine seems more linear with less dips. I will scan and post.
