Thumper Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 I went to the dyno on saturday and finally got a better idea of my torque curve. Boy was I surprised. There are two runs on each page. One page shows max torque and the other shows max horsepower. The lighter line is hard too see but it is at the lower boost setting. Although less power it doesn't have the big dip in power at 4500 rpms. My last graph shows my boost graph and a/f ratio. My a/f at first was 11:1 so I lower my fuel pressure to get it between 12:1-11.5:1. I also found out i've been shifting about 1k rpms to late in 2nd and 3rd so this should help alittle at the track. If you want a better copy give me your e-mail address and i'll send it to you. Make sure you can accept images up to 10mb. Later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted February 7, 2005 Author Share Posted February 7, 2005 So what do you guys think was the biggest effect on the torque dropping off so fast, the starion intercooler or the stock turbo? Both the intercooler and turbo are in great shape. I am about to buy a large npr intercooler so hopefully that will help the hot intake temps. Although there is only so much a good intercooler can do with a t3 at 20-18psi:twisted: I'm thinking about changing the cars name to Torque Spike Monster what do you guys think?
