Tony, if you still have your car "for sale kinda" when I actually have a good paying job, I'd be more then happy to take it off your hands

I'm still considering going against my mantra of not ever launching my car for just one run to see what I'd get in the 1/4 and 0-60. Hmmm... what's an ideal launch engine speed for a slightly modded '51... 3500??

FSAEracer03

ran for traps... 104mph (good for low 13's?)

EDIT:

temp.- 78F
elev.- ~1000ft.

NZ951

No, I ran a 14.2 with a trap of 105.

FSAEracer03

Hmm, well by the looks of tests and bracket drag racing results, most trapping 104 are low to mid 13's

How do you adjust Coeff of drag and roll out??

bunch

234 HP with 3000lb

FSAEracer03

Bunch, nice numbers for what you have... but remember, your car weighs 3000lb WITHOUT you in it Adjust that and watch your wheel horsepower number go up.

toddk911

OK, I just hooked mine up and tried to do some runs. Readings for hp were all over the place. ????

I used 3200 with me in it and 1/2 tank of gas.

Anyone else here have some results? My mechanic played with my car and hes G-tech yesterday he gave me a call today and told me the result was quite good.(or to be acurate he called me in the middle of the night here ) 377HP. How does the G-Tech Pro measure against a REAL dyno? How much rwhp would that turn out to be if so.. Will try 0-60 tests and a new HP test when i get back home from China. Hopefully take some pictures as well.

So that's what, 320hp at the wheels subtracting 15%. At what boost?

Adonay

So the vitesse setup is bang on the money 14,5 psi at overboost for spoolup then around 13 steady after that

toddk911

320whp on 1 bar is not bad at all.

Again, there are so many vaiables with these meters. It is basically measuring how hard the measuring device insided gets rocked backwards. So if the car shoots off real hard, it will measure a much higher hp reading than is actuall which I found out as some runs I had low 200 something and some high 300, lol.

Plus the importance of actual weight is crucial.

Adonay

Yeah i have no idea how they work or how accurate they are .I gues its a GPS speedo and measures how long time X amount of mass uses to reach X speed Seems to be quite near when he measured the 911s around hes garage several that has been dyno tested "according to him". Anyways i am happy with how the car is for now

toddk911

Do you know what weight/mass he entered?

Adonay

Not sure but gues he used the weight in hes tyre\suspention Jig or the Regisration papers +85kgs driver i will ask him more about that later once i go back to Norway.
