I am not a big fan of using the dyno for any purposes but now and then I do some runs just to make sure everything is in check and there is something wrong that I cannot feel. Here is what my car has been able to achieve on the motor over the mods I have.
1. 217kw 406nm Stock baseline with drive train losses taken with fully warmed up motor and gearbox. Tire pressures checked and put within factory spec. In fourth the runs show 228 on a continuous basis and our conclusion on this is that the tires either have more drag at that speed on the coast down or the car loads harder although the boost is the same in both gears. In all the runs the intake temperature is kept at 40 degrees by cooling the cooler. This is the intake most cars have on general cruising.
2. 242kw 418nm Stock software reading with all the bolt on's which include a intercooler, cone intakes and decatted 3 inch downpipes. Stock exhaust. It seems there are gains to be had with bolt ons, the torque doesn;t go up much as the boost remains the same.
3. 317kw 610nm This is the average lowest of three runs I have wit the tuned software. Its the daily drive map which is for use with pump fuel. The boost exceeds 1 bar but timing is relatively conservative in order to avoid the car running continuous adaption on timing due to detonation. I reckon with this configuration I will still run short of the acclaimed 300wkw at the reef run. It is possible with a once of map but the car must remain a daily driven car producing power 24/7.
4. 335kw 670nm Soon to see. Meth with pump fuel and some tuning. Estimates are a extra 15kw and 30nm. We have seen these figures on race fuel with configuration 3 so highly achievable.
5. ?????? Upgraded turbos. Its anyone's guess.
5. ?????? Meth with Race fuel
As a matter of interest and for comparison purposes a stock E60 M5 makes 301kw on this dyno.
