93' Miata stolen and flipped build thread
#3741
Hmmm I'm interested in what a different Dyno would report then. It certainly doesn't feel like it spools that late/delivers power that slowly.
What are the right questions to ask the tuner to find the answers we are obviously lacking?
Could my EBC to EWG routing have affected the spool?
If it was truly that slow on power you'd think I'd be able to feel it compared to my 2860rs turbo.

OK so I got a hold of kyle who tuned the car and asked him why, compared to other similar builds it showed such negative performance and apparently in order for the Dyno to display the results on the Dyno he was using(not his own, a BMW shop's, he found that one of the sensors was faulty and had to deactivate it so it didn't go on the fritz when trying to get a plot. Also the power runs shown in the graph were done in fifth gear rather than 4th like I thought.
Here are the texts since he explained it better than I am.

That's a reasonable explanation for why the spool on the dyno was so bad -- just like if the run had been done in 2nd, with no load the motor is spinning up faster than the turbo can.
The only potential downside to this is that if it's not making full boost until, say 4500 RPM whereas it would make it at 3500 RPM on the street, that means there are a few cells that haven't been tuned on the dyno because he could never put the car into those cells.

So the actual HP/TQ is accurate, just not the power in relation to RPMs, which is would show results much more in line with similar builds.
So I hope to get a few runs this weekend on a different Dyno in Vegas this weekend when I go down for the autocross on Sunday.

Right now waiting on a few AN fittings from Fab9 to solve my fuel leaking issue once and for all. 70 psi rail pressure is a bit much for hose clamps and LAPS fuel line apparently. Gonna have full -6an fuel lines off the rail to the fuel regulator. All the AN!
