Think this is Equivalent to over 200 whp on dynojet as used in US so i'm pretty happy with this .
Stock whp was approx. 170

Once we found where the timing gave most power we dialled in the afrs again and got the gains.
BTW : We tested the readings from scan tool against wide band o2 on the dyno & found it was spot on

Like I said all along... Not to mention the "arguments" I had with some people...
Regards timing and fuel - yep, they need to be changed together. If you change the timing, then you need to go back and do the AFR's again.
I'm glad someone else has independently used sCANalyser as one of the tools to get the most out of their motor
Cheers,
Hymee.

Hello! Lasse from Sweden here. I now have my own hub dyno a Rototest which can handle about 700 rwhp. I dyno my RX-8 yesterday wih the following mods: Ferrita 2.5" hi flow cat and 2.5@ front silencer stock rear silencer and stock front "header". I use Shell V-power 99 octane unleaded and 0.5 mm pills in actuator hoses. The car made 141 kw or 191.8 din rwhp@8600 rpm. I have only use the Rototest a few days so i am in a learning mode. Note oil temperature went from 110*C to 142*C in the test but i have Motul 300 V oil so im not scared lol.

This is NA with custom intake, full custom exhaust with cat converter, AC delete, and race pulley set, engine is otherwise OE, car in full STU configuration from the SCCA National Championship event.

Yes, I ran 0.5 oz/gal premix on all runs, I haven't really analyzed the difference between RB and OE yet other than peak HP increase
the gain from the tweaks started at 2250 and increased all the way, largest gain was approx 8 hp at 7300 rpm (there was a small dip in the pre-tweaks curve that smoothed off), peak HP is at 8460 rpm. The entire curve from 2250 up is higher which adds up for area under the curve, but the gains between 2250 and 5400 are small.

I never ran a pure OE baseline so I don't have any data on the individual parts differences. I made all the mods and then ran the 1st dyno. 2nd dyno was mods + RB flash. 3rd dyno is #2 + tweaks. I'm only commenting about the difference between #2 & #3

are you not at liberty to speak about the tweaks because of an agreement with a company such as Racing Beat or are you not at liberty to speak because you don't want to give away any secrets because of autocross purposes?

I'm not at liberty to speak, period
Looks like I already shot off my mouth too soon. I was not present for the dyno tests and just assumed they were run on a Dynojet the same as the first test. Just found out they were run on a Mustang dyno ....
