Hi Richard,
The only Dyno that I've ever done was at Abbey all on the same day using a Dynapack connected directly to the wheel hubs (hence more accurate). Senses were fairly level headed since I had rough idea what to expect on the dyno charts from Hondata website.
If I remember corectly Doug did the first run using a stock ECU and then he tested with my re-mapped ECU. The most significant power changes are seen at 6500 rpm where stock power was 150BHP and Hondata power was 190BHP. Similarly stock torque jumps from 118 ft/lb to 155 ft/lb at the same revs. The torque is generally up by a minimum of 10 ft/lb and a maximum of 37 ft/lb at best.
I finally had a chance to test the results of all my mods since my car was driven stock at Castle Combe when I went to Goodwood yesterday. I felt pretty unstoppable. I started off in the intermediate group and managed to pass everything including a well driven TVR Griffith 500. I then change to the advanced group where I managed to escape various beasts including a current M3, a Fomula Ford and suprisingly all Caterfields. Still got nailed by a track prepared 911 GT2 though
Suffice to say, the car felt incredible and suprised me when I was keeping up with a 400BHP 300ZX on the straight.
I'm happy to let you have a try of my Hondata ECU next time I'm down Castle Combe so you can see for yourself. I send you copy of the Dyno chart in the post if you want too?
I hope you can help me with something. I'm interested in getting a set of Team Dynamic ProRace 1 15s like you run on your DC5. Can you tell me what offset you use? Did they fit straight on without having to modify the Brembo calipers? I have tried to order Pro Race 2 16s but DT don't seem bothered about making them for me. I was intending to by them with a 45 offset but was wondering what the effect would be considering the stock wheels are 60 offset. I'd be interested to know what you think the difference with have.
Regards,
Jon
