I'm coming but i can't push the car hard, still got that hectic miss fire, happens in every gear, waiting for gary to tell me when he can take a look at it. Image Audio will b there too, so its like a show and shine/sound off/dyno day.

I just got back from the Dyno day. There were some insane cars there. Some SnS people were there so hopefully there will be an article about it in the jabuary edition.

My sx only made 133 rwkw and 214 nm. I'm a little disapionted about the result coz it has made 155 rwkw on another dyno. I can't really compare between dyno's tho.

I'm quite pleased with the tourque curve tho. its the first time I've seen it. It shows that my sx pretty much has almost no turbo lag which i'm quite pleased about :)

Here is a video of the run and a pic of the graph:

Actually went back there around 3:30, it was really packed. lots of leka cars like Evoz, RX7s', and some V8s'. most of those hi kilowatt cars seemed like they just had big turbos strapped to them, it'l be a different case on the street when they try and put that power down. no worries ryan, doesn't matter if the ou in a golf got 200kW more than you, he still can't get it sideways like an SX [smilie=200sx_200sx.gif]

Hehe, ya thx Reece.

Ya it got packed later on. Did u see the yellow FC and the black FD rx-7's. I would kill for either one of those cars :) Also, there was some mazda 616 rotary that made huge power. Like 350rwkw and almost 500nm!

It's a pity that dyno had its own rev limiter
