:shrug: I'm honestly unsure. All I can say is you don't get 60-100 in the low 5s region in an underpowered Leon.

It'll be going on Awesome's rollers at the end of April, unless I do something else beforehand.

be interesting to see what you get dave. my guess would be 319/319 ... ive a bag of dyno lottery quotes incase its higher..;)

seriously though i reckon 320-330?

I think I'd be happy if I saw 310+ on a credible dyno, Pat (suggestions appreciated). I honestly have no idea.

At the moment, I'm debating whether to get it custom mapped to suit the setup (with change of exhaust manifold) - or to take the eliminator off and fit a full GT28RS - involving change of DP too. :headhurt:

lol, all this work and your going to go gt28rs, you must be mad :headhurt:

although i would imagine you'd get a bit for your eliminator kit as you have made it more 'bolt-on' than when it came from atp!

did you ever get any headwork done dave?

That's the thing Saul. I do think I could get some money for my DP, mani, eliminator, inlet side and conversion - maybe even the Revo St3 ecu. I can hazzard a good guess as to where a full GT28RS would gain over my setup. As with most tuning, the cost increases disproportionately to the gain.

No, this is my dilemma! I would love to do the internals and fit a large port head etc. I can justify having the car as a toy. What I perhaps shouldn't be doing is committing to the time needed.

On the other hand, it would be satisfying to get the eliminator /wmi running (mapped suitably)at its best - to a reasonable proven bhp and turn round and say - hey, that's what you can achieve with a bit of effort and an average spend.

So it's either
  • Bring the project to a conclusion soon with a set final spend
  • carry on developing and spending big time.

:D No, I think Awesome's is a credible dyno (not that I've ever had a good result on it :happy: ) and there are a handful of respected ones round the country.

I agree it would be nice to compare the cars, it's a shame the central dyno meet never came off.

No going off home early in a Huff if you don't get the figures you want this time ;):D

Nearly three years ago and you keep bringing that up! :cry:

I stayed for 2 hours after my run - getting more and more pissed off. :D I didn't really know anyone then - now however, I can put a name to the faces that are avoiding me. :happy:

(for the few who don't know, first dyno run for the car. I fitted an N75J the night before (clever me). Would anyone like to see a graph of a Stage 2 Revo car running in limp mode? :hide: )
