Yeah sorry, maybe I should have been more clear, put it in teal or something LOL.

So how is the tuning going with this? dyno numbers yet?

sen2two 07-11-2012 11:55 AM

Over a year old, But I'm wondering if there was any numbers on this?

rx7 vinnie 07-11-2012 12:22 PM

Last time I talked to him... The engine has over 15k on it and pulls hard.... For what it is :-)

sen2two 07-12-2012 12:48 PM

That's great...

Did he ever mention any dyno numbers...? Or maybe you could ask him?

rx7 vinnie 07-12-2012 05:27 PM

That engine will last forever lulz...I'll tell him to chime in.

I dont think hes dyno'd it yet? could be wrong

reddozen 07-13-2012 07:37 AM

No dyno numbers. To actually see anything, you'd need a before an after. I have no "before" pull on any of my local dynos, so the actual power gain can't be established.

If I pulled a 180, the motor would look normal, but if i pulled a 150 before, then you could see that it was good for a 30 HP gain. Dynos are too unpredictable for me to waste $100 on a number that means nothing. I'll do it one day at a dyno day event, but I'm in no hurry to throw money away.

Another guy on 8 club with a similar setup is claiming an 80 HP gain, but I'm not sure I trust that number...

Carma is having dyno/bikini wash day July 22nd.... Put it on there, I'll pay just to see what it puts down.

We can give it a go if I'm back in town by then. I'm going out to Ohio to visit family and coming back sometime next week. It still needs more tuning, but I think it should be as good or better than stock.

I could go back and pull it again after the tunings done too.

Was there not a noticeable jump in power between stock and bridge? I am assuming you're running a different tune than stock, but with you saying it still needs tuned makes me curious if you just threw a base tune on it and went with it or tuned it at all.

It's tuned enough to run fine in closed loop around 13~14 AFR. Open loop is tuned to hold the factory AFR range. Right now it's all just tuned to be "like" stock. We'll push it further when I have time... busy with job, family, 3 websites, etc.

I understand. Hopefully you can get it tuned relatively soon and get back with us. Like you said, the power numbers don't matter much, but I'd be very interested in knowing the end result anyway.
