uh oh!!!! dying to see this monster lol

 

sounds like j's racing might have a slight competition....

 

I'm not competing on any circuits yet..... So Busy with the New shop. Finally found time to pull the motor and get this thing done!

Feels real strong! Dyno is 9/22/09!

 

when you going to show us your goods gypsy?

 

what a ride... im still in shock lol

 

I'm assuming you went for a ride in Lance's car? Nutz huh? I got 1 word for you buddy........BRAKES!!!!!

 

This ride is crazy!!! Cannot wait for the tune!!!

 

lmao... yes it does

 

After the tune on Tuesday I will keep you all posted! I'm hoping for 235hp to the wheels as my goal...... we'll see!

 

Dyno Tuned the k24/k20 frank today....

224hp peak / 188 ft.lb tq. (Final 220.8hp / 189.4 tq) More Mid-range power on this Tunned Map.

When I get the digital of the graph i will post that up.

Jeff Evans from Evans Tuning - EFI Tuning Specialists, says that if I remove the restrictive Fit Exhaust and put on a 3" and open up the "intake plenum volume" (Make an extender box) for flow efficiency, I should be able to squeeze out another 15-25 whp!

So, in the next couple of weeks to come I'll have that done and I'll be dyno'ing again. My goal was 235 whp, and I'm so close!

 

i think the Fit has a really modern solid chassis built for Kswap

 

i was there... VERY LOUD lol

 

This thread is such a roller coaster of emotions man. I need to go be by myself for a while now.

 

.....ok? lol

gettinafit: did you have to upgrade the suspension for the k20? just coilovers? or something custom?

 

Hey Lance...lemme' know if you're swapping out the Fujitsubo, I wouldn't mind trying it on my car to see how loud it is.

 

It's all your!-(Literally) As you've heard above it is not beneficial for my setup, so it has to go!

I'll keep you posted as to when it is off. Prob in the next week or two!

 

untuned test runs...
yellow numbers first untuned run and Green second untuned run...

 

Yup, that was the untuned Baseline as I bought the car to Jeff Evans. I was on the money pretty much. I figured that before any tuning started, I was at about 200whp. (196 was close to my guess-timate).

It was the final tune number that got to me a little bit 220whp.... , so that's why I'm out for more HP on just a couple of those little things that my Midas Shop can handle no problem..... like CUSTOM MANDREL 3" EXHAUSTS!! hehehe

I'll be keeping everyone updated with the "(after tuning session 1)" graph when I get the chance to scan it. It has the baseline and the after tune mapped overlayed on the same graph. You can really see the gains and the magic of Kpro and a professional tuner!
