Wait until I have done my dyno to see if any of the stuff helped. Then I'm sure Ray will be happy to tell you then. Hell if it did not help I may just stick my head in the sand and hide.

Wait. This is the same car that just made 330 HP?

BTW - Can you trim the logs to the relevant part of the plot? Does your software have that capability? It would make it easier to read.
Axes would be helpful, too.

Yes, the only SC RX8 I own. No log was taken while at the dyno last Saturday 12-13-08

BTW - Can you trim the logs to the relevant part of the plot? Nope
Does your software have that capability? Nope
It would make it easier to read. Sorry
Axes would be helpful, too. Again, sorry.

You can with the EFI logger. Just take the log, export it as CSV, then you can cut out the extraneous bits and post the resulting file. You can use Excel or any regular text editor.

~330 g/sec and ~160% is awfully low for a 330 HP car.

Also, why did you do the dyno pull in 3rd? All the other pulls around here are in 4th.

Because I used the same dyno shop under the same conditions (3rd gear) in order to better ascertain gains on whp. Changing shops, dynos, person that sits in the car (Delirium-Motorsports http://www.delirium-motorsports.com/) allows me to do it myself.

Have fun with the numbers.

Time
Load (%)
Engine Temp (°F)
Long Term Trim (%)
RPM (rpm)
Vehicle Speed (mph)
Timing (°)
MAF (g/s)
TPS (%)
Air/Fuel Ratio

Well, this thread is turning into a scene from Hamlet in a way, so it might be apropos to smell something rotten.
Its not nearly as nice a place as Denmark, though.

Totally legit explanation.
You should consider doing some 4th gear pulls next time in addition (with an RPM axis) so that the plots can be used for comparison.

Lol. Can I have those a text? A JPG is a bit cumbersome!

I don't really need it. I'm just wondering why your street data log numbers are consistent with all of the 240 - 260 HP cars.

Hamlet? That sounds like something I ate this morning.

Dyno was done Sat and the posted log was taken yesterday while on my way to work (specifically while entering I-4 on 4th, 5th, 6th gear).

Doesn't matter - if the vendor started it; then even if public you can't go play in it. According to Rule 7

Installed a new high flow cat today,,,
Yup it was the problem,,, The fist core was jammed all the way to the back of the cat housing, thus jamming the second back into the pipe and surrounding the O2 sensor, the sensor is fine and she's running smooth again...
I guess blowing out at 120mph didnt leave any remains in the exhaust for me to here rattling...
Im gonna keep the one I took off and gut it for track days...

Makes you wonder what 369 g/sec at 180% TP would do?




Juan did not run over 8K, all of my crazy MAF readings were in a burst to about 9K.

Except for this insane 4th gear run on 12-07-08 up to 11.3 psi boost.

So why did we decide on the matching sig links again? At least specifiy the turbo model in use.... I am pretty sure if I strap a Roots Blower from a 350 Small Block onto a Renisis; that I can create some failure issues too.
