much smaller

 

Bro, you have an insanely good torque/hp curve on your car . . . . I wouldln't worry about "not enough power" . . . . 500whp is insane . . . . with insane power under the curve to go along . . . .

 

Looks like the AF is pretty sporadic. Also your torque curve is pretty choppy. That may clean up with better AFR's. You're bumping along the 10's there at some points. I would expect the car is not making clean pulls through to redline due to missfires.

 

What compression pistons?

 

much smaller... its similar to the JWT TT turbo's

8.5.1 compression

 

What gear were you doing your pulls in?

Didn't AAM use to do all their dyno runs in 3rd gear?

 

mike told me these were in 5th

 

Yes, if you want to be technical, their dynojet can do the whole range of corrections a dynojet can do.. But every dyno I've seen from AAM has been uncorrected. Pffft... weaksauce!

 

Dude I think your compression is to low for this kit. Did you pick the build? 8.8 or 9to1 would be best. Whats the size of the pistons did you get the larger 98mm or stay with the 96? What injectors are you running?

 

I did get low numbers on AAM's dynojet also.
I made about 360whp with the TN kit at a little bit less than 8 psi with a utec tune.

 

actually i bought the motor used and this was the compression already on it
as far as injectors im using 750's

hmm.. im wondering if i should get this retuned to get the graph curves more smoother.. i also don't understand how safe my air-fuel ratio is right now

 

Whats your pistons size? All built engines are going to differ from one to another. Your HP might seem about right or just a tad lower then what you should have, but your compression is going to hurt you tell you can up the boost some more. Remember dont compare other PETT kit numbers to yours they will all be different eagles is at a stock compression and stock piston size(bore) and can make more power at lower boost then mine at a lower compression and bigger bore. But in turn I have more room in there to push more air which can give me more power in higher boost. But the PETT kit is not a really high boost kit I have heard of 20lb"s max on this kit so you dont want to go to low on your compression it really will hurt your numbers so you have to pick your engine to match your kit. Your engine might have come from someone using a greddy or APS. These kits can really take advantage off all that room in your cylinder. To see some better numbers you are going to have to up the boost some to match the size of the engine.

 

True.. thanks, i hope that this tune will last me a while, i'm probably will keep it at 15psi on a daily basis..the motor and turbo kit were bought together

Below are phone camera pics, and also the previous owner of the motor and kit.. his dyno on his car is also posted below along with the link




Here is a picture of the engine in the previous owner's car

This is what he made on his automatic


Of course he didnt give me the power enterprise intercooler..
and im only at pump gas... i bought the motor from vq35carel

 

He dyno'd higher with an auto? At what boost and what gas?

 

Well there you go right there he obviosly has a differant kit then you because of the lag and you having higher TQ numbers. PE is a high TQ kit he must of had the greddy. I dont think anything is wrong with that engine or the kit. Must be the tune.

 

so he kept the intercooler. What kit does he have now?

 

the turbo kit and motor was sold to me together. i don't have the fuel and psi info from him.. but the PE kit was attached to the motor when he sold it to me

he did sell the intercooler before he sold the rest to me
i just bought the motor and turbokit minus the intercooler for about 10k

 

STD is often very close to uncorrected numbers except in extreme weather conditions. SAE (what I prefer to use in reporting numbers) is almost always significantly lower. On a 500HP vehicle in average weather, 20hp difference is common.

Then you can add/subtract 1-3HP with smoothing.

In the end, a dyno is a tool and not a sack enlarger..

On my car with the TN and Greddy kit there was less than 10whp difference between SAE and STD. And trust me, Im not one of these guys who think big dyno numbers = a fast car.

 

It better be the low boost setting!
