That feller better not come ridin' through Or-y-gun. I may have to impound it.

Jim's car did really well on the dyno, normally aspirated, > 300 RWHP IIRC, with rounded spark plugs!

Could someone confirm that "465RWHP" is NOT a typo!!! Holy crap!

Dave:

The 465 is on Jim H.'s GT. Seth's results are yet to come, but should be awesome. I still am stunned by the 465 at only 7 PSI in Jim's car. Jim's is Autorotor while Seth's is Jag-Eaton. At this modest boost there should not be that much difference, but we will see later. Also, I'm not sure what boost level pulley Seth selected...it may have only been 5 lbs with the option to go up later.

To get around 165 new HP to the ground (not sure of Jim's baseline) from only 7 PSI is pretty astonishing, isn't it?

Yep, it says 465. Most likely 4th gear. Are you on your way down to DEVEK yet!!

I chose 6.8 to start and I think Andy, you said you had brought another with you.

If I make anything close to 465 I will giggle like a schoolgirl.

I did a reset of the LH/idle adaptation with the JDS Porsche (John Speake) Spanner and my idle is still high and rough, particularly when warmed up. Vacuum is good (20 lbs idle; 25 lbs on deceleration ) and the engine dies when idles stabilizer plug is pulled, indicating no major vacuum leak. Off the idle, car is fine. Wondering about idle A/F mixture or defective throttle body. Dunno.

Don't want to steal the thunder from this thread. 465 still has me speechless.

Oh, and I want to thank all the people who helped me during the install, and especially Dennis Kao. Dennis drove me back and forth way out of his way and was there the whole time turning screwdrivers and wrenches beside me. Thanks Dennis!

more like 547 (465/.85)...for manual tranny....but still awesome...now we need to see the before numbers to get an idea of how much he gained. His Dyno jet numbers were 301 rwhp..not sure how the Cloutier dyno compares to the dyno jet though...

really looking forward to hearing how the car runs....

later,

OK, now I'm interested Does anyone know how the GTS from So Cal came out.

Lets see Jim H / 301 rwhp before 465 after = 1.5448
If I did this / 319 rwhp before w/ Cats = 492.79 rwhp after. This is getting quite tempting

When I saw that car on the dyno it pulled about 275whp in 5th gear, which is quite a bit lower than it has done previously...301 before on a dyno jet, however it appeared his flappy valve was not fully engaging, which could cause a loss too....but since he no longer has a flappy valve he doesn't have to worry about fixing that!

So that means his car went from 275 to 465!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice 190hp gain for an intercooled 7psi autorotor kit....a 70% increase in HP...not bad at all, amazing 27hp per psi, even 23hp-psi from the 301dyno! Torque should be well over 400 too...that will be a beast...200mph+ and very low 12's or better 1/4 mile....NICE.....where did I leave that spare 10K?

Bill
Just about what you thought it would do! The first one done too!!!!!!!!!! Nice 72hp gain for a weekends work! When are you gonna take me for a ride!
