Here is a more recent dyno graph. This was this year @ the GST dyno day. I lost some power from the first tune but Mike said my fuel pump was done. I replaced it with the Walbro. Can you tell from this chart if maybe I am loosing top end compared to the first dyno charts?





Looks like my hp stays around 250 on the first dyno sheet and a year later it almost gets to the line and seems to taper. That is what it is feeling like too.

I think you need to log the car and not try to judge from the dyno charts.

I have a feeling your car is pulling timing on the top end and causing the issues.

242@5500 vs. 248@6250 = major difference, do you have a boost gauge? what's your actual boost level like in say 3rd? What's it supposed to be at?

time to buy some loggin software and a cable (=

I have a feeling since the issues with the existing fuel pump and replacing it with the Walbro your car would more than likely warrant a touch up tune. If your in the area I would be more than happy to do this for you.

I just need the cable (shoulda ordered a long time ago).

I have open ecu on my laptop.

I have 2 boost gauges (LOL) On Defi and the AVC-R reads boost. I hit 1.4bar in 3rd, but I will set my Defi controler to record and go do a run after work.


It sucks being so far away from civilization. If I could I would leave work right now to see if Mike would chuck me on the dyno. This is really bumming me out. I guess in the scheme of things it's no big deal but my car is hella important to me and I am frustraited I am not seeing power like I should. Oh well I will go grab a tissue.
