micra on a dyno

[evade]

There was a dyno day on Saturday and decided to put my car on the thing again, with a little more boost.

10psi = 110kw = 150hp (at the front wheels)

here's a little video

nice mate

 

[squarepants]

not bad, will you be trying to push it over 200bhp?

 

[evade]

nah, will be trying to sell it instead.

as for 200bhp..depends, i think you guys up there have the dynos giving flywheel figures most of the time? if you figure in drivetrain loss back on to the 150hp it'd be a little over 200hp already.

 

[Ian]

what?! You really think a micra has that much tranmission loss? not a chance, its not a skyline after all.

 

[59 bhp is more than enough]

150bhp at the wheels!?!?!?!? i bet that thing flys. have you taken it up the quarter mile then? what times you got?

high 14's on the old tune afaik.

 

[evade]

good thing we dont care what the flywheel figure is therefore drivetrain loss doesnt really matter lol

14.8 @ 93mph with a 2.4 60ft. that was with a slightly slipping clutch and 7psi.

since that its got a big front mount intercooler, 190mm clutch, lightweight flywheel and a slightly better tune.

on 10psi i'd prob be good for a low-mid 14

With those times you would be pretty close to the ST!

 

[evade]

haha ed, thats if you don't blow a hose half way

 

[Ed]

Yeah. Too true! Not only water seeing as there are so many!

 

[evade]

haha..how many miles did we do that night? i remember i kept on thinking the miles to km conversion was less than it actually was

If you count Paddington to Warlingham, then in total (there and back) it was about 150 miles (240km)

Not bad in one night hehe
