Keith's Ca18det Dyno Day (pics&vids)
« on: 05:39:19 PM / 02-Apr-07 »
I attended a NICO dyno day meet in Huntsville, AL over the weekend at Trackmasters.  Mostly S13's/ S14's with sr20's/ ka-t's, and one blown ka.  One 280zx turbo....and of course one s12...maybe 2 at the next meet if Kenny(yhave) ever finishes up his ca-det swap  
Anyway.......I was pretty happy with my numbers.....and more so after they dyno tuned it.

Here are a couple of pics of them strapping it down.........





Here is the vid of the first run before tuning.  It got 198whp and 187 ft lbs of torque @ 11psi.  It was sooooo piss rich it didn't even show up on the afr graph, which was below 10.
dyno run 1

Here is the 2nd run with first tune.  It was around 205whp at 11psi, still piss rich
dyno run 2

And finally the last run with more tuning, which netted me 211.11whp and 197.36 ft lbs of torque @ 13psi and the afrs showing just under 12
final run

I think with a little more dyno tuning I might be able to squeeze out a little more.....but for now, I'm pretty pleased.

I did 6 dyno runs and 5 of those was with tuning.....  The dyno sheet only shows the first and last run..

Thanks man.....I was pretty pleased, especially after the crappy runs I got back in Tracy with the ca-et right before it crapped out.
This should keep me happy for a couple of months.......haha

you get any compliments or hate from the s13 and s14 owners about the 12? Pretty good numbers tho man...it sounds like there is still some room for improvement tho. But I bet she felt a whole world different on the drive home huh?

Alright what is your safc 2 tuned like now?  I wish I wasn't too cheap and lazy to go to a dyno day.
I finally broke down and got 240.
But it's a Vert with 18's and a 5spd :)

Haha..........let me go out and pull the numbers off of it, and I'll get back to ya.  Heck of a lot cheaper here for a dyno tune than Cali.  Paid $80 here......out in Tracy, at that s12 dyno day a while back  they wanted like $150 per hr

Yeah.it's a MHI Evo III 16g.  

Here's the little blurp about it.  I don't think Mitsu measures in AR like Garrett.

"MHI EVO III 16G Turbo

This is the stock turbo from the Lancer EVO III. Outwardly they look like any other 16G. They use the same compressor housing, TDO-5 exhaust wheel, and the same 7cm volume exhaust housing. Until you pop off the compressor housing... HELLO! Big Wheel. Flows 550 cfm vs. 505 cfm for the regular 16G.

The normal 16-G compressor wheel is 1.83" at the inducer and 2.36" at the exducer. The Big 16-G is 1.89" at the inducer and 2.68" at the exducer. That is just over 5/16" (8mm) larger than the normal 16-G exducer and the same size as the GReddy 18-G (inducer diameter is only .10" smaller than a 18-G)."
