Where's your 500 WHP graph?

I only see 482 PS to the wheels, which is like 475 WHP.

Far from 500 WHP if you are using this graph to make such claim... Just FYI

I've always wanted to hear one of these superchargers on the dyno... Do you have a video of it?

Its a dynapack that reads a little bit lower than a dynojet. If you see the correction is SAE.

That car has a catalytic converter and nice exhaust. It is also tuned on pump gas since it is a street car.

The destroked k24a can rev to 9500 RPM easily. I think the 500whp claim is reasonable. He is making 482whp at 8700 with the fuel pump being close to getting maxed out.

The better video would be of the EP3R toasting a Ferrari roadster on the mountain roads in Greece.

Those Rotrex systems are great. Does each system have the same type of gearing for the compressor or are they specific for the motor?

Well, I don't have much of an opinion regarding what you plan to claim power-wise and how much you rounded up, but 482 PS is not 482 HP. Just FYI. It's different unit of measurement for power in case you haven't noticed.

482 PS = 475 WHP. You can round up and claim 500 WHP, that's cool and all since it's just a number, but I am pointing out that PS is not HP so you won't make a mistake on the units in the future

Any videos of any sort (dyno, driving around, track, etc)?

Tony, you seem to have been around for a while based on your registration date and the fact that in your profile it says that you are Owner of Dynamotorsports.ca. Dynapack Evolution 4000 chassis dyno seems to be dyno that you own, just like the dyno that I am posting here.

So for the cars in your sig you are using whp? Why didn't you use the PS unit? :p

Rotrex is a company that is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. In the USA Oscar Jackson jr and skunk2 created kraftwerks that makes kits for certain cars with the rotrex chargers. Some kits are complete and some are basic kits where the owner has to fab all the piping , intercooler, etc etc.


Back to the car, it is easily a 550whp motor but the owner wants to make it last as long as possible so the revlimit will stay at 8700 for a while.

Because my graphs are all HP... If I use PS, all my numbers will be multiplied by about 1.02... My Supra will become 920 PS instead of 908 HP to the ground, and my Integra will be 668 PS instead of 659 HP.

I am not sure if you understood North American english (just making sure), but it seems like you didn't quite get what I am trying to say here.

1 Pferdestärke (PS) = 0.9863201 Horsepower (SAE HP)

You've mistakenly used PS as HP, and then rounded up the number to become 500 HP. But in fact, the car is 25 HP away from 500 HP. It's a huge round-up, and it's like saying my Integra now has "700 WHP" because it has 668 PS.

There's no real issues here, just pointing it out. I am just making sure there are no misunderstanding of language here.

car so far is running great and driven daily, going back on the dyno soon with better fuel system and higher revs.

About the dyno numbers, I now understand what you mean... I will post new dyno when it gets retuned.

Very impressive... I didn't know there was a shop like this in Athens or I would have paid them a visit when I was over there last fall
