My DynoJet numbers... - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 11:39:26 (1082 views)

Nice numbers. That thing would be a monster on race gas! - CO AVANT 2008-04-29 08:54:34 (104 views)

Thanks Jordan. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-29 10:48:00 (108 views)

Solid numbers roman. Do you know how i can get my hands on a JJ Tip? - EBG 18T [Eric] 2008-04-26 13:50:36 (135 views)

Thanks Eric. Winston can help out with a solid TIP. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-28 08:59:23 (115 views)

The are other steel tips available - MC Hammered 2008-04-26 17:24:18 (183 views)

Good to know. - A4darkness 2008-04-27 17:40:44 (74 views)

winston - ygm - EBG 18T [Eric] 2008-04-27 04:40:31 (122 views)

Maybe u should sell me your recaro's so you can partially fund your BAT project 8-) - RASTA4 2008-04-26 08:17:55 (130 views)

Not gonna help much. My price for the recaros will be less than $1K. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-28 08:57:38 (111 views)

yeah and you should sell me your alcantara steering wheel to help get those funds up - hehateme 2008-04-26 08:19:10 (126 views)

alcantara steering wheel is crap. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-28 08:58:00 (134 views)

why is that? I was a little concerned about it getting dirty , thats why I held off. - hehateme 2008-04-28 20:38:11 (79 views)

I got it since I was told it was thicker than OEM which it isn't - MC Hammered 2008-04-28 20:56:23 (120 views)

Mine is clearly showing wear at 9 and 3 o'clock. I've been running it for about 16 months. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-29 07:51:27 (79 views)

My alcantara wheel might be up for sale as I'm thinking of custom wrapping my leather one - MC Hammered 2008-04-26 12:49:21 (128 views)

custom wrap your leather one? whats the advantages to doing that? - hehateme 2008-04-26 22:15:33 (117 views)

I like the feel of the chunky VW r32 steering wheel. So I hope to have it thickened up and wrapped. - MC Hammered 2008-04-27 20:50:51 (115 views)

I'd love to see that mod. I have an extra OEM steering wheel somewhere. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-28 08:58:37 (74 views)

second that. I never even considered doing that. winston is a GENIUS!!! :p - hehateme 2008-04-28 20:39:09 (72 views)

Winston is a GENIUS!?!? I don't know about that... a little obsessive - compulsive maybe - MC Hammered 2008-04-28 20:54:20 (111 views)

Like this one? Nice and chunky. - A4darkness 2008-04-29 12:15:17 (129 views)

That's the r32 wheels I was talking about. It's so nice to hold. - MC Hammered 2008-04-29 23:02:48 (105 views)

that thing looks like it was p-shopped or something. Look at the right side. ... - hehateme 2008-05-05 17:43:16 (95 views)

I'm pretty sure it's just the angle... there were a few more in the set that didn't looked chopped. - A4darkness 2008-05-05 23:43:09 (53 views)

I've driven a few r32's and that steering wheel is the real deal. If I could retrofit in it I would. - MC Hammered 2008-05-05 23:14:34 (57 views)

DAMN, that is a thick ass steering wheel! - hehateme 2008-04-29 17:39:53 (98 views)

we should start a paypal fund for u to go BT - jimmyc83 2008-04-25 14:32:35 (138 views)

I have tree fiddy for it right here! - A4darkness 2008-04-25 15:21:26 (103 views)

I have $8.30 - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 15:28:01 (151 views)

$0.50... - MikTip 2008-04-25 16:38:53 (149 views)

You got to go BAT soon - MC Hammered 2008-04-25 12:55:22 (295 views)

The more I read about your setup the more I want to do it. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 13:00:27 (175 views)

Here is a picture of a Full-race GT3071r setup going on a B6. - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 14:52:00 (275 views)

Once I get the setup dialled in it won't cost you that much - MC Hammered 2008-04-25 13:06:45 (151 views)

That's actually a very, very viable idea. Seriously. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 13:10:25 (148 views)

Yeah really. Count me in when my car is paid off. - MarkChai 2008-04-26 10:50:31 (114 views)

So you're numbers aren't corrected (aka the numbers are at the wheels)? - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 12:10:54 (149 views)

They are whp readings but with a 1.03 SAE correction - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 12:20:30 (149 views)

Ok, but its not a standard correction to get chp numbers, right? - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 12:30:51 (101 views)

To get CHP from WHP you just use (whp x 100)/78 = chp - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 14:42:44 (146 views)

i think DJ is closer to 20% and DD is 35% - Merkin 2008-04-25 18:33:16 (93 views)

DD is 30-32%. - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 20:15:29 (131 views)

Those are pretty good numbers - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 15:30:18 (142 views)

Well you also remember the dyno added 3% on top of what he really put down - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 17:33:23 (144 views)

Oh thats true - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 19:47:52 (129 views)

damn that's some big tq - hehateme 2008-04-25 15:23:53 (126 views)

The K03 can make those # too but on a race gas tune. - 2.0GT35 2008-04-25 17:37:07 (94 views)

Those are whp/wtq numbers. DynoJets read higher than others. Unfortunately... - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:16:27 (149 views)

I should go to KMD and get Dynoed, I'd like to see how much power I'm putting down once and for all. - QuattroFan02 2008-04-25 12:10:43 (135 views)

I'm doing the same when I get home - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 12:16:11 (143 views)

Very good plan. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:17:14 (135 views)

Yup. Might even toss the FMIC on - quattrothatcould 2008-04-25 12:56:25 (134 views)

Do it. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:14:03 (100 views)

weren't you telling me not long ago that you thought the 1.8t w/K04 was better than a 2.0T w/ a chip - TwentyValveB5+S4 2008-04-25 12:05:26 (168 views)

Ha. I knew you'd see this post ;-) - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:13:37 (192 views)

never said it was night and day, just said that it was about even - TwentyValveB5+S4 2008-04-25 12:23:38 (144 views)

I understand completely (now). It's a very nice engine (still sounds like crap at idle tho)... - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:27:04 (157 views)

No car payment is PIMP :P - hehateme 2008-05-05 17:44:35 (97 views)

w00t, there you go. - TwentyValveB5+S4 2008-04-30 11:35:09 (95 views)

nice, about 35 more hp then my fxk03 set-up, but about 65 more ft/lb tq!! - heateris 2008-04-25 12:03:09 (213 views)

Can't compare a Mustang dyno sheet to the DynoJet one. Mustang reads lower. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 12:04:49 (149 views)

Interesting. So, with the proper fan setup, what do you think you'd hit? - A4darkness 2008-04-25 11:52:15 (136 views)

I believe with a proper fan setup my 2nd run numbers would've been about the same as my 1st. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 11:53:03 (109 views)

Ah, okay.... didn't know if you were saying the first run would have been higher as well. - A4darkness 2008-04-25 11:56:06 (135 views)

Roman on a DynoJet?! Now I've seen everything. - skeeball 2008-04-25 11:48:17 (106 views)

Lol. Yeah. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 11:52:12 (174 views)

206/250 - nanotech 2008-04-25 13:49:40 (154 views)

is a flashed 2.0 really that much faster than a k04? The numbers seem to be about the same, right? - hehateme 2008-04-25 15:25:49 (104 views)

A chipped 2.0T is a bit faster. Not by much. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-28 08:55:45 (112 views)

Apologies. I fixed the threads where I mention your tq number. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 13:55:31 (107 views)

No worries :) I don't trust the 2.0T dynos we saw, until RPM is measured - nanotech 2008-04-25 14:01:15 (139 views)

That's true. - Tgr_Clw 2008-04-25 14:05:29 (137 views)
