Went to the Philly Dyno day at http://www.xoticmotorsports.com yesterday. Saw some nice boosted Honda's, hung out and played GT3, and got to watch boostedhybrid in action tuning (that guy is good!). My stock R put down 166whp with the power steering belt off - I was happy with that, but it definately got me itching for more (bOOst perhaps?). Click here for charts and analysis:

PS - got there at 9:30 and got 4 runs for $40!!! Xotic is a great shop, and I recommend them to anybody in the PA/NJ/DE area...

 

Nice Nick. glad you had a good time , Next time ill roll out with you guys.
numbers seem pretty good. thats usually about normal.
Yeaa Jeff is a great tuner, he's coming to my place tonight to get mine running nice again .

 

Yeah, can't wait to see your beast in action! Nate told me you've been doing some "lightening"... Lemme know when it's done - I wanna go for a ride in that monster

 

hahahaha lightening isnt even the word for it , this thing is retarded light.
you should come down to Maple Grove this weekend , ill be debuting her on the new set up , hope for 11's on street tires. Nate might race too .

 

Cool, sounds good, I'll try to make it...

 

Hey Nick glad you and Evan could come. Ya you guys should definitely come to Maple grove. I also got a great pic of our cars together. I made it my wallpaper. Check it out.



I posted more pics in the FI forum. Congrats on the good numbers. Next time you will see Pete and I put down some big numbers on the dyno. Damn break in period

Oh and of course how can we forget.....

 

damn, how did you get my car to look clean
j/k nice pics - thanks for posting them...

We had a great time, and I can't wait to see your cars in action!

Ran into a problem with my downpipe and my .48 a/r turbine housing was really restricting flow as well. I put down like 220whp and 175lbstq @ 9psi. I didn't want to run crazy boost because the motor is still being broken in. Next time Pete and I go down we will both be running .82 a/r turbine housings and My downpipe will be fixed. he is looking for 550 at high boost. I am only tuning for around 350. I am not as crazy as him.

 

Oh, and just wanted to point out one graph:

This graph shows two runs - run 2 was done with my DIY intake plugged into the stock airbox (w/ comptech foam filter). Run 4 was with the airbox disconnected (ie open tube, no filter). You can see that, while the open tube made ~2 more peak HP, the stock airbox w/ DIY intake tube made alot more midrange, and had a considerably smoother power curve. Just some food for thought for those of you that are always touting the advantages of the "filter on a stick" setup...

BTW - all runs made with hood open, fan on front of car, and tranny in 4th.

My DIY intake is basically a homemade icebox setup - no resonator, stock tube to resonator cut and turned to face forward. I also have a duct in the front bumper to direct cool air into the area behind the rf turn signal where the intake tube is.

 

thas cuz Nate is Scurred he wont be able to handle the mad boost yo. cuz he donts gotz the maddd boozt skilz like i do , lol

Must be nice to get such good prices. Nothing but ripoffs in chicago as far as dynos go.
