Just got the rally car tuned yesterday. I'm not sure if the results are good or not. It seems like several people have made better results with FAR less work/parts, but here goes. This engine was built two years ago, but only has about 30 miles on it. I'll link the dyno sheet once I get it uploaded/emailed. Best result was 159.9 whp/143.8 wtq. This was on the 29th pull with no cool down.
Engine build:
USDM DE block, .020 over with Wiseco pistons-final compression 10.4, GTIR oil pump with Greg V crank pulley, JWT C2 cams, gears set at +2/-2, Ferrea 1mm oversized valves and springs, Ti retainers, 5 way valve job, gasket match ported head, phenolic spacers, cold air intake, N60 MAF, 370 cc injectors, NISMO FPR set at 50 psi, Calum RT board tuned at Batlground in Atlanta.
We tuned for nearly two hours, trying to get everything maximized, but just couldn't get it over 160, let alone the 175 I expected. I'll go back soon and try bringing down the fuel pressure. We maximized timing, tried a colder plug, etc, but were stuck at 159 for 6 or 7 pulls. I supposed a cool down would help, any thoughts?
I can post the bin file if anyone wants to have a look.
Here is the dyno chart. I checked cam timing and it seems as though they are set at -4/+4 instead of the other way around as they are supposed to be. I will be heading back to the dyno to check things out and adjust cam timing to make more power.
