I went to the REACT Dyno day today, been to one before, but this time me and a mate got our own cars done.
I was expectiing 100rwkw, Peter from Autotech said, nah she'll be good for 110kw. First run was 114.1! and then 13.8 for some reason. So I wanted to see what the difference was with no filter and look what she got!!  I was so happy lol
This is with no mods at all, just a brand new head and valves. Stock cam still, stock exhaust sys.

it is a 5-speed so the results arent suprising but are impressive.
remember dynos do vary but either way that is a good result

Did they advance the timing a little while it was on the dyno to get the best results?
Cheers........

yes. Less transmission loss comapred to an auto. I gained considerable power at the wheels just by swapping gearboxes |

yeah manuals always pull bigger numbers that same auto.
el_fairmont at dyno days they only let small changes like removing airfilter, so doubt the timing advance. p.s. might want to look into a better filter if its a 5kw loss having your present one on. |

Cheers........ Nothing was changed, bar the removal of the air filter just for interest sake at the time. The day was purely for power runs, it was a Rotary Shootout day, and there was a few of us tag alongs who got a run. It's not a massive figure, but my engine feels very healthy, and it shows now! heh, I'm also stoked as I've never had a car dyno'd or run a 1/4' mile.
I've also got a couple of clips of it, but dunno where to host em as they're massive, and don't want to use a dodgy spyware image hosting site.. Might youtube it later.. |

Although you know your stuff 'Disco Frank' so I would say you laid the sarcasm on pretty thick with that post.. cheers.........

And he has a brand new head and valves, there might be a tad more compression in there and way better gas flow who knows , hell the dyno could be wrong for all we know! i was asking a legimate question!

I reckon it's a good dyno, mate's E36 325i had a custom powerchip written for him, was supposed to net 130rwkw, and he got 128.6 with the chip and intake, so that's close enough in our books.

Cheers mate. I wanna go again after exhaust, and then again after cam install.. as the Dyno run's are fk all $ if you time it right..  I hope to reach 140+rwkw with K&N, pacey's, cat, 2.5 sys, and 1636 cam.

would it be fair to say a 94 ed i6 auto would get about the same results?
