I think 130 odd RWKW is quite good considering its just an exhaust with extractors... good s**t.



Cheers

cheers mate, yeah i was only expecting around 160hp, especially with the auto and 225,000k's on the clock. I still got the stg 2 RPD cam, springs and vernier sittin in my room. But im thinkin bout sellin this ute and gettin another xh but an XR6 5 spd and put the cam in that.
What do you think i will be expecting in hp @rear wheels with the 5 spd and stg2 RPD cam?

its hard to say, different engines, different dynos, different days... 180 now, Id be expecting 200+? or so... Im running the RPD stage 3 in mine, Im waiting for dyno day, but..well, its got power :-D

The XH XR6's are nice... very nice.. Ive got an XH engine in my car :-D..

But there's one way to see the results from the cam, and it would be very interesting, Ive been for a ride in a EL XR6 RPD stage 2 (dc todd), and god damn lol... scares the s**t out of me.


Cheers

G'day guys, The dyno reading posted was wrong. When they done it they just put wheel chocks under the front wheels instead of strapping it down. Now i just found out from Terry at BPT Motorsport that doing this will give you an incorrect higher reading. When on wheel chocks the drive wheels will ride up onto the front roller taking less load on the back roller thus causing higher reading. This is called "Riding the Rollers". When strapped down it puts full even load on both rollers giving a correct reading.
Anyway the RPD Rspec3 cam is in but i only have the the "before cam" dyno result of 165rwhp, which is more like it.
Will post up the sheet tomorrow when i get the car back as well as the "after cam" result.
Cheers Jeff

Wicked as man, yea any time i have Dyno'd my car i ask for it to be strapped down, 1) its a bit safer, and 2) u get a proper reading...

Are u coming on the FM cruise this weekend?
