Dyno tuning the LX9 ITB setup

[Shaun41178(2)]

I got it street tuned and its ok to drive around. I got some dyno time scheduled.

Looking at 13-14 lbs for max boost. Then try it with a 30 shot. Gonna play with the timing to see how much that adds if any. Right now base timing is set to 8 degrees btdc

Give me your hp and tq guesses.

Turbo lx9 3.5 with ported heads and custom itb intake

[The Dark Side of Will]

Those were... 215 stock?

400/440 at the wheels.

[CincinnatiFiero]

Why not put it into desktop dyno and just put those numbers as your sig.

My guess is 380/410.

[Shaun41178(2)]

205 crank was factory hp rating

[Series8217]

My guess is 392 whp / 412 ft lbs

[The Dark Side of Will]

I got some dyno time scheduled.

When is it scheduled?

Oh yeah... I wasn't thinking about the TPC intake... new guess: 440/440

[Shaun41178(2)]

I went fri.

Dayum... I wasn't far off on the torque, but CRAZY top end. NICE!

taking it to 6500 rpm

Fuckn' A man, nice numbers! Your fiero would smoke my FD. Hoping to get around 450whp with mine, getting more docile in my old age.

[CincinnatiFiero]

Well shame on me for shorting you.

Is that with or without nitrous?

No correction factor? You could easily find another 100whp through an arbitrary correction factor you can't explain.

[Shaun41178(2)]

No nitrous. So there is more left in the setup.

I did spray a test run for only about 1k rpm to see what would happen. I picked up about 30 hp and 80 lb ft of tq. Lol. I am gonna upload a video of that. I don't have a dyno chart of the nitrous pull cause it was pointless but I could go back and get it if you guys absolutely insist. I think its pointless cause I didn't do a full pull with it.

I am guessing I would have been in the 550-560 whp range if I took it to 6500 rpm.

Sae correction factor was 520. Real hp was 530.

I just sold the itb setup and heads so no track times will be achieved. New owner wants to do a NA setup and maybe turbo later into his 88 formula

[The Dark Side of Will]

LOL... WTF dude?

What's going in there in its place?

[Shaun41178(2)]

Possibly selling car as a roller. Parting it out is too much work. I have a new project car that is a better platform.

If I could sell it as a roller I would. Spread the word. 88 formula 5 spd.

[Shaun41178(2)]

video of test hit of nitrous on dyno. only went to maybe 5k rpm or so. not a full pull. you can see me push the button then you hear the engine start singing.

Do you need Ritalin for that ADD?

530 RWHP and 2900# with excellent traction is a tough customer... You going with a turbo C6 ZO6?

[Shaun41178(2)]

Its prob closer to 2700 with me in it. I pulled close to 300 lbs out of it.

It needs suspension work. It drives fine but with this power I dont trust any of the original parts. It needs torn down and all new bushings and bolts, springs shocks, etc.. Its more work than I want do to right now because I have a feeling a lot of stuff is gonna break on removal and be a total pain in the ass.

I'd look at getting a lower mile v6 5 spd for a 3900 swap vs tearing thia one apart.

[crzyone]

Wow, just got it dialed in and now it's gone. Sounds like me lol... N* fiero, 2 GTRs and now into my 4th rx7...

Sticking with the Fiero platform eh?

[Shaun41178(2)]

Nah I have a new project car that's not fiero related.
