Goin on the rolling road this Saturday Morning@Powerstation car Sti type r v4
list of mods include:

Hyperflow tmic(with sti8 scoop and splitter)
TDO5 18g turbo
Nismo 550 injectors
Walbro fuel pump
Ngk iridium 8s
Blitz sus(with cold air feed via fog light cover)
Earthing kit
Full decat

PFC Mapped by Pavlo to 1.5bar



Lets see who can get the closest to the right figures?

Bhp ? / Torque?

I was hoping for around 340-350bhp and say 330-340lbft

I will post the results Saturday

Which fuel/booster? as this makes a huge difference

DeanF

Well with Powerstation you'll probably be nearer 380 / 350 as they do tend to be more favourable to the customers ears !!!!

Dean

Had the car run at the clinic and was 321bhp powerstaion 326bhp both gave 301 ftlb torque !
Have been to 2 open days at powerstation and have seen quite a few scooby owners with dissapointed results,I would have thought powerstaion rollers were defo not generous ones.

Anyone else ?

Fangoria Why would booster make a big difference if the cars mapped say for optimax 98ron ??
Just curious as ive never bothered with it ..Maybe more gains to be had yet ?

Juliano

Mapped to Optimax,using no octane boost

Thought it was Power engineering that gave high bhp figuers not Powerstation

Booster - makes a huge difference
I dint know if you had included this when you mapped the car
I use one full bottle of NF every fill up (costs me about £10 a bottle) but it gives me significant ignition advance and hence power..........


I would expect you to get about
315bhp and about 280lbs..............

911

I have a similar spec to you but with Guppe S headders.

6 weeks ago the car ran 370 x 320 at Powerstation.
6 months ago the very same car ran 407 x 340 at Well Lane.........

Graham.

Juliano

If i get that figure the cars going in the trader
All those mods and hard earned cash for a measley 35bhp from standard

Juliano

What bar of boost was you runnig with that figuer?

RoRu

I'd say 350/340 maybe the top mount being the limiting factor.

And if i was you I'd bin the Blitz tea strainer in the interest of engine and turbo longevity.

Juliano

Thanx for the predictions anyone else care to comment

I dont think you will be disapointed

Pavlo mapped my car around the same time as you. Think me and you did PM each other around the time.

Mine also goes on the dyno Saturday but at scoobyclinic. I shall also post results on here..
Dont think I will be disapointed either after the times it clocked at Santa pod on Sunday, but we will see .

Have a simular spec to you but still using the standard TD05 16g. however mine was mapped to optimax + booster

Maybe you should have had it mapped with booster as some mappers claim upto a 10% increase in power with booster and its only £3 a bottle ( millers )

to be honest man powerstation have that fan that goes right over ur TMIC and i hear that is a serious thing for power release, the usual fan in front is supposed to be nowhere near as affective!!

flat4_ire

and sorry to hi jack ur thread here dude, but im getting my car on RR next saturday too

would like to know of other STi Type R's experiences

mine is 98 V4
-blitz induction
-zero sports ground kit
-full 2.5" turbo back system including scoobyworld downpipe,helix up pipe and equal length headers,
-lightweight flywheel
-Apexi PFC mapped by Andy F running on 100RON fuel @1.35bar im hoping for 310bhp

Fuzz

Powerstations rollers are not "generous"...


They are Acurate.

Andy

flat4_ire

yeh thats what i was thinking, this place im going to has the usual fan in front of the car, I dont see what benefits this will give me scooby without a FMIC

Fuzz

why many others don't use some sort of fan on the TMIC I don't know.

Powerstation could obviously see the benefits of this back in 2002..... (if not earlier, but that pic is no older than 2002 as I didn't own the car before that. )




Andy

flat4_ire

i dont know man, Andy F was telling me he reckons it can really make a big difference, cant argue with the man really can i?

Fuzz

why would you want to, he makes perfect sence.

How different are these rollers to the ones they had at Cheltenham - do they read about the same or are they more favourable?

I think I've posted loads of times that the runs on several occassions on bhp have been very similar to that place in Aylesbury (G Force? is it) on the same day

But hey it made me plough loads of money into the car and I've learnt a fair bit over the years............

and I will put the car on the rollers soon - but only when I know for sure I'll be over 500bhp!!

The Fixer

Dyno Dynamics Rolling Roads are the way to go To be fair, putting a fan directly above a tmic probably cools it more than it would eveer see on the road and how often do you drive down the road with your bonnet up letting all the underbonnet heat escape? Shut the bonnet and direct air at the intercooler from the front of the car as it would see on the road for a more realistic result.

Juliano

What times did you get @the pod m8?

Fuzz

When there are fans made compact enough to fit in the dyno room producing the force you would normally see on the road then we'll shut the bonnet..


Andy

Juliano

Yes i remmember we did pm each other ,Will await your result m8,hope all goes well

69WRX

Got a best of 12.50 @ 108mph. This was my first ever time down the strip and im sure with a little practise I could get a 12.0 ish

Good luck to you Saturday also

Must be developing Dislexia , Doh
Yes I meant Power Engineering, Silly **** have been to Powerstation myself,
Defo losing it

Dean

Juliano

How did you get on m8?

Mine got 342/266

Bhp was not to bad was hoping for around 350,but the torque figuer was well down Thing is tho so was everybody elses mine and most others over 300bhp were spinning on the rollers,1 guy made 389bhp with 300lbt yet a month ago@another r.road he made 392bhp 370lbt.
Conlution:

Iam certain the torque figuers are wrong,in a few weeks iam going to try and get on a dyno pack at least this way wheels wont be spinning and i will get a more acurate fig.

Has anyone else ever experianced this@Powerstation

TyPe~~R

I've got a Type R v3 1997, RR'd with full decat
Apexi Induction
HKS EVC4
it made 310BHP/297Ft/Lb near standard

Ive just got a FMIC, 550's 20g, headers. apfc mapping etc... but its not fitted yet. I hope i get more than 350bhp or thats alot of money for nothing. I'm sure your torque figure is well off, in not sure if a slipping clutch would give a trany loss on the rollers?

Juliano

Thats what i thought m8 too,altho clutch is only about 2months old organic clutch ,doesnt feel tho its slipping ethier

69WRX

Juliano your torque does seem a little low, but if everyones was......
I just got back from Scoobyclinic
Car made 347.7BHP/330Ft/lb
Pleased with that from a TD05 16G 90degree entry.
