girth45 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hi all , car going for mot friday ( will pass) after being off the road the last 6 months while I completed going bpu, fitting BC coilovers and a full respray, also booked in for a dyno run, having never run a car on a dyno, I'm a bit nervous ! All levels and oil good, how much stress does this put on the engine ? Mine has a full service history new cambelt, 130k on the clock . its a j spec TT vvti auto, any help, ideas or advice welcome.

Nic Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 My 1st turbo blew on the dyno whilst I was watching ,as a result I'd only put my car on a dyno now if it was to get it mapped. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have some low mileage twins if they do go pop like nicks did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris88 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Seeing this has got me thinking (makes a change I suppose). Before I start on my NA-T project it would be good to get a baseline of where the car is before I start. In the UK I'm in Holbeach, S.Lincs which makes the nearest places of any size Peterborough and Boston. Does anyone know of anywhere reasonably close to me that can do a quick dyno run so I can impress myself with the power gains after the work is finished. The car is almost 20 years old with a listed 225 at the crank so right now anything over 150 rwhp would be a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girth45 Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Dyno run done today, along with mot. Really pleased with results. No blow ups ! Car nearly ready for japfest on the 10th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 What where the results then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girth45 Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) 355 bhp at the wheels, could do with a piggy back ECU to map the fuelling at the top end, but on the whole very pleased with result, boosting at 1.17 bar 401 lb torque.
