Looks like good results, was it what you were expecting?
Hope Dave was happy.

This latest dyno confirms for me now that , for my previous 333whp dyno, the melted out centre divider in the middle exhaust port gave me a few extra whp .

I think there is more in Dave's car for sure so i'm sure he will be back chasing that very soon 280 is pretty damn good for a first up result .

Mine - I'm a little disappointed but now realise that it is pretty much topped out and there is not much i can do to get any more .

Great results for both of you.
Dave it will be a couple of weeks before I'm ready, if all comes together as planned.
But that will depend on how the car goes once I get it running again.
Seems like you got a good result for first time turbo.

Thanks Roger .
while the results fell short of what we hoped for , we did learn some good stuff today that can be applied to your setup so you can hit the ground running

Dave
What were the problems you found? Did that piece of pipe I sent you work ok?
Did you manage to get it tuned how you wanted it before the Dyno?

On the vid of Brett's car, at the end where its sounds like it back fires, was that just hitting the limiter?

Learning good stuff is always a good thing, especially if it helps to stop me blowing up an engine.
