• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Made it to the Dyno the other day...

...and back home again without blowing anything up! Is great success!

Put down 268whp. I'm pleased, giving that I'm only running 8psi. I need to go measure the pulley size, but it's on a GenV blower, so it's way up from stock efficiency. Since I bought the car already modded, there are quite a few unknowns (tune, injectors, Tstat (though I think it's a 180*, giving that's what the gauge is showing))...but the obvious is that it has a GenV with a slightly smaller pulley, intake (unsure of the TB...I assume it's stock), and full headers/exhaust setup. The car pulls like mad. You can see that it has some kind of decent tune, as the A/F ratio looked great on the dyno. I plan to get the HPTuners Suite and Wideband O2 at somepoint to see exactly what's going on with KR, injector flow rate percentages, etc.

I asked in a different post, but I'll ask again...does anyone know what this black box does? It has two wires going to the one device on the intake (idle adjustment perhaps?), and two go back into the wire loom and out of sight. It has a ground wire, and one control wire that leads into the cabin (I think to an on/off toggle switch that doesn't seem to make too much of a difference when I flip it).

Overall, I'm thrilled with the car...and just need to take the time to find out all the little upgrades that have been done to the car. If this car looks/sounds familiar to anyone, and they might know the original owner, please let me know. All I know is his name is Leon, and he moved from NJ to NC when he traded in the car.

One last question - how much vacuum should I see at idle and decel? Right now, I'm seeing ~19mm/Hg on decel, and about 17mm/Hg at idle.
 


what pulley? how much timing?

that black box looks like an AFC to scale your MAF to add/subtract fuel on the fly. its also possible that the knob is a happy knob to control your timing. does the car get faster/slower when you turn it?

your vacuum looks good. its a problem when its too low (zero).
 
Honestly...go back to the dealership and see who traded it in IMO...thye should be able to give you his name/phone number...and ask wtf they all had done to it :D
 
this is why i would never buy a modded car, unless i knew the person well and knew what was done. Then there's no guessing game. Nice numbers tho :th_thumbsup-wink:. That is a stock t/b with a genV adapter.
