I used to have an 05 Orange Blast SRT-4, but had to get rid of it to make more room for kids. Now I have another, and glad to be back. I am in Albuquerque. I went to the Dyno meet today at Motiva. Here are some pics of my car, and my dyno sheet. Now here is where I am disappointed, and could use some help. The results of my dyno were not what I expected. If you have any ideas on how to correct this, or what is wrong, let me know.
Welcome. You got Nate's former skittle. Nice. If I had to guess, you probably have a boost leak somewhere? Nevin knows this car well, so you might want to hit him up. I saw you leaving earlier at the Dyno. Several people told Mains and KingNate you were wanting to talk to them, so we all stayed near my car. Next thing we know, you are driving off. lol
I remember Nevin from my Air Force days, but I figured he would have moved on by now. I'll PM him. After it was my turn, I went back and forth looking for them, and didnt see them, so I took off. Oh well.
Sweet!! So I guess you're a renewb? A once newb twice shy? :grin: Anyway, :welcome: and you can't be too much of a newb, you actually posted pics without any harassment from the peanut gallery. :happy:
Is the bottom graph your AFR's? If so then that is probably a good place to start placing blame. Mains and I told you the stuff you need to fix first (vac lines and breather). Get that straight then move on to looking for boost leaks.
Yeah, the bottom line is AFR's. I know its supposed to be around 12, but dont know how to bring it down.
12 is the absolute maximum and you still risk blowing the motor up at that point. From what I have learned is you should be at around 11.5 on the spike and fade down to the 10's to be safe. Here is a dyno run with a setup similar to yours. (CAI, o2 back exhaust, and s2 wga).
Yeah get the vacuum lines in order and you will be good fatten that biotch up and I bet you have at least 40 whp on the table left...
Once I get the Vac lines taken care of, will the AFR fall in line all on its own, or do I need to do anything else?
vac lines and reset the ecu... the problem is that your car has no idea whats going on, so yes it will fatten up just right again... I give you my word.
Sweet. I'll get those vac lines taken care of asap. To reset the ECU, I just need to pull the negative bat terminal for about 2 min right?
Who goes from orange to white... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! j/k...:welcome: anyways...traitor. :rofl:
I went and found a diagram of the stock vac line setup for you. You should only have to reroute a couple lines and for sure disconnect the blue line from going to the throttle body cause that never should have been connected like that. Next I would reset your ECU and adjust the WGA. A good place to start would be to set the preload on the wga to 0. Like I said at the meet I have an AGP wga I will sell you and then all you need is a 7/16 wrench to adjust it without disconnecting it.
KingNate, how much do you want for that WGA? Plus, how do I tell if the preload is at 0? Thanks for the diagram. I just asked over at RSW which one I should fillow.
