So last week I finally got to install the last bit of my mods. I already had jb4, vrsf catless downpipe, forge chargepipe and mpe for quite a while, so the next mods were obviously IC and intake. I decided to go with forge FMIC and aFe CAI, it is so amazing how these two mods can make such a difference! I mean the car pulls like crazy. Next week ill go to the dyno to check out numbers, since I have access to 98 octane ill guess it is around 350-370whp. Still, the way my butt dyno feels it's more than enough for me

Should I run Map 2?

[goodNIGHT]

Nice. In for results..

[Dylan86]

Nicely done! Sounds like the IC made a big difference giving you all of the power available opposed to heat soaking the factory IC.

I'd run Map 2 with the mods you have.

[Jeff@TopGearSolutions]

Congrats OP, good luck!

[mike@x-ph.com]

Nice!

[SeanWRT]

Can't wait to see the result please.

OP,

Did you connect extra EWG harness to JB4 ?

If so, by all means run map 2 but its an additive map like map 1.

If JB4 controls EWG directly, then try maps 5 and get map 6 set up. Both are absolute maps which allows Jb4 to raise boost ceiling higher, safely.

Map 5 is autotuning map - continually optimising JB4 boost curve to suit yr driving style etc

Map 6 is custom map - best setup on dyno.

Enjoy !

Results were 358WHP and 377WTQ

You were right on the money on your guess

[goodNIGHT]

Wow. Great result. This was on a dyno jet?you don't have any baseline numbers??

I did some runs like 5 months ago just with mpe and downpipe and the results were 305whp and 329wtq. I would assume that the downpipe gave around 8-15 whp to the stock figure because with mpe alone you really dont notice any gains at all, just a bit more sound and burble to the exhaust.

Now, I have a question for you guys. The dyno numbers shows that I reach peak torque at 4300rpm and peak horsepower at 5350rpm, what would be my optimum shifting points during drag races??

Was your dyno done in map 2 ? What grade of fuel were you using ? Do you have any logs ?

I ask as peak power rpm looks low and drops off quickly very quickly.

Below are 3 lines on the same dyno of my car taken at different times/stages of tune using Shell V power 98RON & all figures quoted are at the crank.



Blue line from 2014 dyno run - car stock c/w MPE ie JB4 map 0 on Shell V power c/w 1st gen F series JB4 no EWG wires - 320/350 power/torque;

Green line from 2015 dyno run - JB4 updated with EWG board, EWG wires installed and map 6 refettled with AFE drop-in and AFE airscoop 395/470 power/torque;

Red line from last dyno run in Oct 2016 - intake upgrades as per my BB thread 405/460 power/torque;

Power / torque curves are different shapes and top end is stronger for longer.

Yes, the last dyno runs were in map 2 with 98 octane, no logs. Crank hp and tq are 412hp and 434tq. Im interested in knowing the best shifting points because I wont be changing from map 2 and will run the car most of the time with 98 octane.

I think you're leaving a lot of power on the table with your mods and octane, but I understand if you want to keep it conservative.

If you have EWG wires hooked up I would at least run map 5. I think it's perfectly safe and still conservative. (I used it Saturday for my track day).

You think i could achieve more power in map 5?

If you're running 98oct as it's rated here in the US you should make more power on map 5 than map 2. Just keep in mind it takes a good 3-5 WOT pulls for map 5 to get a good baseline tune. Then if you switch back and forth between maps it has to learn again.

[db235]

Still.. waiting on someone who knows well about these n55 dyno graphs to recommend some shifting points

[Bee Pee]

Looking at how quickly power tails off on your dyno there's no point revving beyond the ~5500 rpm peak.

[FSociety]

What did you Dyno on map4 ? should be good to see as your last run for a baseline

I think there's more to it than that. I feel like this guy does a pretty good job at explaining it. Does any one have some real world experience with this?

That's my point - based on OP's dyno plot - he's better off short shifting to stay in the torque plateau rather than winding out to redline !!!
