Many of you already using AP-22 performance meter?
I have some results & some questions. What Vehicle Data are used, especially CdA, Rolling Resistance & Tilt-factor? The first data of my scoob (my99, open exhaust, EMS-chipped, VF23, lowered with stiff suspension, etc): Mass: 1240 (empty, also without spare-wheel, of no use anymore because of big brakes front & rear) CdA: guess (did some calculation) around 0.8 RR: guess around 0.019-0.020 Tilt-factor: don't know, my sub is very stiff, so I guess less than 0.007? Are roll & smoothing factor of importance for acceleration-results (or just for power-figures)? Today I compared figures from AP-22 with G-Tech-Pro: Distance 0.400km 164.4kph 14.40s Pk Power: 120.2kph 8.39s 0.160km 248hp Peak G: 31.5kph 1.40s 0.004km 0.88g G-Tech: 13.7 sec; speed 171.4 km/u Also 0 - 100 km/u; G-Tech all the time was 0.3-0.4 quicker. My best 0 -200 km/u results today (the shifting could be better): Start Speed 0.0kph kph s g km hp 10.0 0.61 0.54 0.000 28 20.0 0.99 0.75 0.002 75 30.0 1.35 0.77 0.004 116 40.0 1.70 0.83 0.008 168 50.0 2.04 0.76 0.012 194 60.0 2.98 0.39 0.027 123 70.0 3.73 0.46 0.040 172 80.0 4.27 0.51 0.052 218 90.0 4.84 0.48 0.065 233 100.0 5.50 0.37 0.083 208 110.0 7.10 0.35 0.129 219 120.0 7.90 0.35 0.154 244 130.0 8.74 0.32 0.184 248 140.0 10.54 0.09 0.253 115 150.0 11.85 0.22 0.306 224 160.0 13.11 0.21 0.360 237 170.0 14.43 0.21 0.421 259 180.0 15.88 0.19 0.492 267 190.0 17.56 0.14 0.579 244 200.0 21.44 0.12 0.789 249 Pk Power: 185.9kph 16.82s 0.540km 271hp Peak G: 44.8kph 1.84s 0.009km 0.89g ---------------------------------------- And top-speed (slow start because of 'saving clutch'): Start Speed 0.0kph kph s g km hp 10.0 0.77 0.44 0.000 22 20.0 1.29 0.52 0.003 54 30.0 1.99 0.43 0.007 68 40.0 2.54 0.55 0.013 115 50.0 3.70 0.23 0.028 65 60.0 4.55 0.37 0.041 122 70.0 5.17 0.48 0.052 183 80.0 5.76 0.48 0.065 208 90.0 6.40 0.43 0.080 215 100.0 8.12 0.24 0.126 145 110.0 8.96 0.34 0.150 217 120.0 9.80 0.34 0.177 241 130.0 10.70 0.30 0.209 242 140.0 11.77 0.25 0.249 231 150.0 13.97 0.21 0.338 223 160.0 15.36 0.19 0.398 230 170.0 16.85 0.17 0.467 238 180.0 18.54 0.14 0.550 234 190.0 20.65 0.11 0.659 222 200.0 23.39 0.08 0.808 218 210.0 28.86 0.07 1.120 232 220.0 32.83 0.06 1.359 239 230.0 38.12 0.05 1.692 260 240.0 47.01 0.03 2.276 264 250.0 151.33 0.03 8.357 292 Pk Power: 251.0kph 152.14s 8.413km 310hp Peak G: 190.9kph 157.73s 8.778km 0.71g Some more thoughts & questions: I wonder how accurate AP-22 is with high speeds; specially the power-figures with that speeds are much too high. Last november Powerstation's rollin'road gave this figure: P-eng : 259,5 BHP P-wheel: 173,5 BHP Torque: 248 lbf-ft (4640 rpm) Since than I just changed the st-turbo for a VF23 (guess 15-20 bhp more). Last question: difference between power-engine & power-wheels with a scoob is always around: 1 : 0.65-0.70? grts Geert [This message has been edited by psyg (edited 12 February 2001).] |
psyg,
I think you need someone with a PhD in nuclear physics to interpret this post http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif Gastro PS Er- I dont use an AP-22 performance meter............! |
Sorry m8, haven't a scoob! ( that's clever cockney rhyming slang for I haven't a clue, I haven't a scooby doo, I haven't a scoob).
Bob PS I don't have a AP-22 either! |
Gastro, no PhD's please..., http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif just somebody who is also liking to play with an AP-22;
2 weeks ago I was an ignorant guy like you http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Geert |
I have a Phd in nuclear physics, an AP-22 and a subaru. Looks like the CDA value is wrong if you're getting high power values at high speeds. When the CDA is correct you should get similar power levels in most gears. I think 2nd gear levels are best as air resistance is not too critical and you should be out of wheelspin. I did some coast down runs using the AP-22 and ended up with a CDa of 1.2 (!) so I'm still not sure about CDA values. More coasting...
