My lastest Dyno run
 

For those who have woundered about my sig and if it was true or not her it is. Did both my dyno runs at swift motor sports, the green is the base line i did when i first bought the car. it had only a brola cat back on it nothing els. When i dynoed it the second time i had AEM CAI, super cat high flow cat added on sence then. Once i install the coils i will be dynoing again jut to see where i stand.

Either you are running your 8 on kryptonite or that dyno is wack .

... intake+exhaust = 212 wheel torque?

umm... does not sound right.

even for the 168 it shows on the chart...

seriously, absolute BS.

That looks more like 168 lb-ft :dunno:

Get those coils in and you'll be in orbit!

S

ya i just noticed that my self about the sig thanks for the catch

And BS????????

avanti - don't take it the wrong way . Most of us in this thread know what the renesis is capable of and your dyno is so far outside of the norm that it just can't be correct .
check out the dyno thread for some other examples and you will see what i'm on about ..

Maybe flywheel hp? Why did you only go to 8300 rpm?

I dont see 212 WTQ?? I see the 228 WHP but the torque curves (more horizontal curves) max just under 170... sure ur not looking at the baseline WHP at 212?

hmm.

the other anomally here is the base vs modified shows large gains thoughout the entire rev range - that just does not happen ......

sorry Avanti but I gotta throw out the :bsflag:


I've personally hosted dyno days and put over 50 different RX-8's on different dynos and there is not ONE that has ever broken the 200 whp mark with a simple borla catback.
That tells me your baseline is not accurate.


the rest of the dyno is also way off.
You're dyno'ing up where Charles R. Hill's car dyno'd and his engine is ported, has upgraded ignition, exhaust, AND NITROUS.
sorry man, simply not happening...

If only this was how they really did dyno... :(

amen to that !

yeah i only see about 170wTQ...and 212 WHP....

My first thought was it was simply a hub dyno. A quick google search and it turns out it is indeed a wheel dyno, hmm... converted to crank?

212 seems to be a little bit low for flywheel though.... but the 228 is very reasonable for it

even still, the gains don't add up.

so a cai adds THAT MUCH whp and tq ALL THE WAY THROUGH the rpms?

no. no it doesn't.

No I 100% agree with you, but he has more than intake done and it is possible that the baseline run is incorrect... 212bhp seems small... overall it is a messed up dyno haha

avanti do you have an AP tune as well?

What kind of dyno was it? This could be the issue here...

212 is a BIT more believable, but its really really pushing it with those minor mods.

No i was saying maybe they are converted to Flywheel HP and the baseline run could be effed... lol that shiz is just messed...

I still go with the kryptonite theory - look at the green shading on the base run .

win

ahh, good observation... that is so obvious after somebody else points it out

212 without engine tuning and cat delete is going to be damn near impossible.

no AP, unless when i did the dealer recal thing they did something besides a reflash,

dyno dynamics is the type of dyno they run there at swift motorsports,

ok so i see wwhat you guys are saying i really didnt believe the sheets eather, but i really feel dynos dont lie. How many of you dynoed your car when you first go it and then after a couple mods where put on it? When i got the car and brought it to the dealer there was a recal done on it already which i beleave was the engine swap out so it might be a bran new motor when i ran it the first time, the second time i ran it it had the dealer reflash with the newest mods on it. just for shits and giggles i will be going to a diffrent shop after install the coils and wires to see if there is a diff or whats up

Something seems off about your curve. Your power peak is at ~7300RPM. Absolute numbers aside it looks like your VDI valve is not opening or something is missing. Your final curve should be similar in shape or slope to your baseline regardless of the overall numbers. I would check to see why your power peak is not higher at 8000rpm like the stock line.

Also it seems like either this is Bhp at the flywheel or the dyno is adjusted to read higher. Dynos can be adjusted to read whatever you want. I've had my car on three different dynos and gotten three very different numbers.

This dyno goes along with my first AP run.

Are you showing that dyno's can read wrong with that pic or are you actually pulling 492whp dyno runs?

Check my sig... I am definitely not running 492whp.

The pic was my attempt at sarcasm and meant that dynos can be wrong at times. The only NA RX8 dyno that I have ever seen pull over 220 was TeamRX8.

wait...doesn't kryptonite make superman weaker?

ahahaha

Ah ya didnt look at your sig.... very true about the kryptonite, but whatever Bruce Banner has, is what Avanti's rotary is running...

It's not really a lie. It's just wrong. That might be what the dyno read, but that doesn't mean it was calibrated right. It's like a lot of measuring tools, you have to have it calibrated properly to get proper results. Scales need calibration before you weigh things... in fact, electronic scales calibrate to 0 every time they turn on. Lets say you put 5 pounds on a scale before turning it on. Then you remove that weight and step on the scale.... You're going to be 5 pounds lighter according to the scale, but we all know that is not the case. So it's really not a lie, it's just wrong.

perhaps - but it has the reverse effect on his batmobile . He always gets his butler to top up the kryptonite for him because of this . Jeez , don't you know anything ???????

I was going to say the coils could need replacing but there were so many other anomalies with this dyno that I didn't bother .

avanti : I have dynoed my car on a dyno dynamics and got quite a low reading . I was told by the dyno guy that it was known as the "heartbreaker" of dynos .
The fact that yours is so high makes me believe that its calibration is way out of wack . You said they only had it for a few weeks ? Go back to them and tell them the rx8 club does not believe his dyno and get him to recalibrate it and give you another free dyno .

Do you have any videos of the car so we can see how it pulls ??

it's going to pull like any other RX-8, the dyno is WAY off.

damm...i gotta go get me a butler...

guess I better go brush up on my mad tuning skillz ...

no i dynoed it a few weeks after i got the car for a base line run.
on a side not installed the coils and wires today so i will be doing another run soon

I predict 254 whp
:rolleyes:

That's gross Hp.

Dyno was not calibrated to run RX8.

Someone is eating your money.

at this rate - who needs a turbo ?

Wee... i can't wait to see the HP from a light pully!

Or for that matter who needs a "real" dyno when everyone has their own butt dyno? ;)

My last butt dyno run recorded my RX8 at 287 BsHP with 203 Bs per lb torque.

you should go back to the dyno and do it again and tell them to do it right this time so we can see what you really have ??
