Wow have made a big difference
Extra big Rush headers
Magnaflow X pipe
Lukey Ultra flows
2.5 inch
Big stainless tips
They were going to be fitting the intercooler too but ran out of time
Now she sounds like a V8
Computer is starting to realize that the engine can flow now
The hole system is based on Peter Scotts
the only thing I have done yet are the Cats (Car sound)
I hope to put them on after the car goes over the pits

Looks nice Gary. May I ask how much it set you back, without the headers?

Here we go with the dyno diff
Before 179.2
Now 188.4
& the lower line should be the torque figures I think

Gary, dyno was in Shootout mode, pretty sure that the lower lines are air/fuel ratio.

In kilowatts you went from 133.63 to 140.49 = gain of 6.86 kilowatts.

From the graph you can see that the top end (revs) has benefitted from better breathing.

The guy at Xspeed asked me who did the exhaust
he said going by the graph it is very good
But with an air fuel ratio ajuster I should get over 200hp
Then he said with the supercharger it will fix the problem too
along with my unichip

No idea, I thought I read that shootout mode was just a simple mode for comparison testing and the bottom line was largely irrelevant.

I am about to do my exhaust too, is it safe to drive around for a while with the exhaust done with an out of whack a/f - I will be getting a unichip down the line but not sure how long that will be, Gary - if your people have done a V8 header installation I might head down to them and get them to do it as opposed to someone who hasnt done one before.

I have my before dyno sheet Gary I can send that to you if you want - wont be for at least a week until I fly back, mine got 191.7hp before exhaust, will be very interesting to see what I can get after exhaust!!

Gary, how many km's before putting the exhaust on, and getting the dyno done?


Steve the AFR's will sort themselves out over a couple of weeks of driving. Its nothing to worry about.

Nah, I meant to say, how many kms between getting the exhaust done, and getting the dyno done.
