Power output at the wheels/engine

[V8HSV]

Going to get booked into: www.abbeymotorsport.co.uk/main.htm
and use their Dynopack system which bolts directly onto the driving wheels, as supercharged engines get slippage on rollers this should be the definative answer plus they have 18HP fans to blow cold air at the induction/engine.

Will post results next week hopefully

www.tuningjapanese.co.uk who charge £75ph +vat

Dan the Man,that was mine when I ran the centrifugal.Finally achieved 535bhp. Guys at SAS a great bunch and very helpfull.Their dyno can accommodate 1000bhp.Chasing bhp now with twin screw at 15psi of boost.

Its a small world pomona, he spoke quite highly of you too (but I guess he was after my business)

how did you get on?????

[V8HSV]

Fantastic set up, very friendly and informative staff, the equipment is made in NZ and the sales brochure depicts the 'dynapack' racing Holdens on the cover on test with their dynamometer! Had a good chat about what they might be able to offer in the future should I need their assistance.

Yes I am skipping the answer as to recorded outputs as I need to go back to Mark as I am 'too over-fueled'

I will be going back to Abbey Motorsport in a few weeks and will reply properly at that juncture

Back to Abbey Motorsport on 1st Sept & hoping for good results as Mark has found a few problems as the fuel pump was pushing out over 150 psi and the boost was down due to various pulley changes associated with belt problems, now resovlved, got over 8 psi of boost now, fuel pressure down to 100 psi, still over-fueled but the car now frightens me again. Will post reults next weds.

Fist tests before my visit to LSV were 450 Lbs of torque and 400 bhp at the wheels, trouble was all that was developed at 4,4000 and at 5,500 torque and bhp had dropped off dramatically.

Well its back to Markl @ LSV again!!!

Over fuelling problems still, about 490 Lb torque & 420 BHP at the wheels - all at 4,500!

Imagine what I should get at 5,500 to 6,000 then?

Be a few weeks before I post thye Dynapack results.

Will
