FM's Randall intake

Magnaflow cat

Racing beat header

Squaretop from the factory (EUDM car)

Basic MS3 from Rev

149 whp at 6850 rpm and 181 nm peak numbers.

Lower graph is stock + intake only.

Job done !

Seems high


Happy now?

 

Don't know why I come back here every time, I'm not even really gay.

 

Denial is the 1st hurdle to overcome.
So you want us to believe you picked up 40hp from a header and ms3?

 

 

What do you suggest ? it is a fake ?

How can dynapack lie ?

 

Dynapack is a heartbreaker, and that number is really high even for a dynojet. Either you've got some secret sauces, or something ain't right.

Stock exhaust?

 

Racing beat

 

They do that pull in 4th on your 6 sp? or its calculated flywheel power? Im with 18psi on this one. 40 hp with a header and tune.....

 

4th.

Reverent, with similar setup, got similar results.

 

Yeah you guys messed up....

 

The car is mine. I followed Emilio's 150~ whp plan step by step. What's the problem?

 

What's emilio's 150whp step by step again? Cause I actually went through several of his threads and they all involved a whole lot more than header + tune to gain 40hp or 150whp total.
At first I thought the dyno is high reading (most dynapacs are), but your baseline of 110 is about what would be expected.

I'm not saying anything is fake, but I know for a fact a miata doesn't gain 40hp with a header and tune.

If you counted the flattop, intake, etc. as mods that might make sense, but he said your baseline included all those, so again, this makes no sense.

I'm not calling anything fake or anyone a liar.....But we all have enough brains to see things not adding up here.

 

The pulls were done in the wrong gear. 4th on a 6 sp isn't 1:1

 

European and US cars outputs the same horsepower stock, It's when you start tuning you see gains from a squaretop. Fuel is 98 ron which is equivalnet to your 93 so it also helped.

 

A higher flowing manifold is going to flow more air regardless. Maybe it's the better fuel (we have 91 here). I don't know. IF it's actually putting down those numbers, congrats

 

Stock airbox, MAF, mid pipe and muffler?

I'm not seeing 155whp. I'd guess more like 130-135whp. So it's clear his is not our "rental" formula. We always ditch the stock airbox, run a 2.5" intake pipe on the coldside, run speed-density calibration, high flow exhaust and mid pipe. Even with that, a bone stock NB2 long block will have a hard time seeing 150whp on pump gas.

 

It's a calibrated load cell. It measures torque, then calculates power. Calibrate it wrong and it reads wrong. The Dynapack I tune with locally reads ~10% low. There's a Dynapack in LA that reads 8-9% high.

The only dyno that is accurate from unit to unit (within 2% or so) is the Dynojet. That is a direct power measurement, based on the rotational acceleration of a known mass. Torque is then calculated based on RPM. You can actually get accurate power readings from a Dynojet without any RPM signal.

Not true AFAIK. 02+ Euro cars were 155bhp, US cars were 142bhp.
