...My brand-spankin' new DynaPack Evolution 3000 dyno.

We finished up a little early this afternoon, and had a little over 30 minutes left in the available dyno operation hours, so I decided to do some tweaking to the K20A2 in my daily-driver.

The setup is:

K20A2
Stock block from valve cover to oil pan
RBC intake manifold
Batlground Engineering 4-2-1 header
2.5" SMSP exhaust
Hondata K-Pro

Here was the baseline from a couple days ago


I wasn't very happy with the seemingly dead spot from 7000 to 8000, so I figured I'd try to "liven" it up.

Here's what I came up with.


Still have a good bit to clean up down low, but I was kinda' pressed for time, as according to our township's noise ordinances, we must cease all dyno operations at 5 PM.

Here's the comparison.


And a comparison against a customer's LSVTEC with Pro1's and 50mm TWM's.

Nice work D-Rob, I didn't know you did tuning? Looks like you cleaned up that dead spot pretty nicely.

 

damn must be nice Derek, awesome job.

 

Though I was disturbed by the thread title as to what it may contain.

It's a fairly new job for me. I've been doing it on the side for a while now, but my good friend John Kerr (J-K-Tuning), my father, and I all went in and decided it was time for a dyno.

Oh and nice work! You improved the graph nicely!!

Indeed it is.

 

 

wow, nice gains.

Peak WHP didn't increase any and if anything peaked earlier, but we all know peak numbers don't mean ****.

The power you gained must really feel nice on the street.

Congrats on the new dyno, nice toy!

 

Nice tunning.

 

Hey D-Rob, do you know how much power the KPro basemap made. I assume you were using the K20A2-tuned cal. I'm trying to get an idea of how much more tuned power was made versus the KPro base. Thanks for any input.

It is a wonderful toy! Looks like with more time you will be able to find even more power
