Hurdy's Golf .:R - project 600bhp.

[Hurdy]

Update.......

Dyno'd the R on the Loba L0400........

Peak torque up 15lbft Peak power up 28bhp

Although at the top end it doesn't run out of puff like the K04 and so at 7,000 rpm it is making over 50bhp more power and over 40lbft more torque.

Spool is very slightly better, but as near as makes no discernable difference.

The map is MUCH smoother and stable in conjunction with the turbo so around town at lower rpms it feels better and overall I'm very happy.

Big thanks to Steve Jr and Craig at my tuners Statllers for putting up with my pacing about like an expectant father!

Update.....

Did a few runs using the Dynolicious app. Using 99ron without WMI.

Each way runs were almost identical.

60' time is over 0.3 down on normal due to needing new rubber. Means I should be around 0.5 seconds quicker with a normal 1.8 launch to the 60'

[Hurdy]

Another run, this time using WMI. Tyres are fading so should be quicker.

0-60 1.8 seconds!? Typo?! 

[Hurdy]

0-60 1.8 seconds!? Typo?! 

60' not 60mph

60' not 60mph

Was reading on a works PC so couldn't see the pictures! It all makes sense now 

Amazing figures.

Next up, NOS! 

[Hurdy]

No NOs this time!

Off to York Raceway Monday. Any time under my current 12.3 will make me feel okay, but an 11.999 or under would have me dancing around my car!

Well, have you been dancing round your car today?    

How did you get on with the new turbo?

[Hurdy]

Not a bad day yesterday. I improved on my best, but still cannot get the 60' times I managed earlier this year.

12.11@112.25

Closer to 11's, but need to get my 60' time down. My best 60' yesterday was 1.85 which gave me my best 1/4 mile time, but is still over 0.1 slower at 60' than I'm used to. Just reducing my launch would  get me into the 11's, but not this time.

I've asked for a revised launch rpm, which the map will allow, so we shall see what happens with this and slightly grippier tyres.

[Booth11]

Always good to improve.

is it just the launch that's slowing the 60' time?  What rpm are you currently launching at, and what launch rpm will you get with a tweaked map?
