Power run :)

Recommended Posts

Nice... what mods have you done?

 

That dip at 5500rpm looks like it could do with sorting though... I think this is normally the sign that the hall sender's not 100% happy... :?

Spec: l&s cartec rsr charger(not great I think), 68mm pulley, red tops, schrick 268/276, sns s5 chip(could do with mapping i think), golf fmic, k&n panel filter, milltek.

 

Think the plugs and lead are past there best, but dunno if this would cause the dip? Would have put the 65mm pulley on if I was planning on getting a power run done, but I only went to get wheel alignment done, couldnt resist the dyno :) steering is soo much smoother now and it goes in a str8 line :-P

What am i missing? In the owners manual it says G's are 225lb/ft as standard!!

 

Looks good tho, nice power curve.

I think you'll find thats Nm (newton(100g) meters), which aint lb/ft

I think the dip around 5.5k is where the supercharger belt starts slipping :|

Slippage never a good thing.... how's your dizzy? I hear a worn one can cause a power dip at 5500rpm, Henny and GMan/Pitstop will know more on that....

Yeah having said that, you can hear the belt slip at about 4.7k, but looking on the mfa I think the boost did drop off a bit around 5-5.5k so thats prolly what it is.

Is there any way of tightening the belt? You mean the serpentine, or the internal one? Sorry, my G Lader knowledge is limited... but I have read on a few occasions about an unexplained power cut at 5500rpm being caused by a worn distributor. Not saying that's your problem for sure, but it's worth looking at :-)

Yeah I have a smaller belt, tensioner is ok too, even tried packing the spring down a bit, didnt seem to make a lot of difference :|

Nice figures mate. The torque figures from the Gs allways make me wonder whether i should have bought one instead of the vr, that eternal question!

 

When the noise tingle dies i'll prob think a bit more! Will henny get his RR'd, i'd love to see the figures on that puppy?
