Great news Matt, really great.

And just think, you missed out by 6 hp on the target - good result.

Are going to turn the wick back a bit now, and can you do that manually yourself with the Profec (sorry mate, cant remember what model Profec you bought)?

So, that puts you inot No,2 spot on the totem pole doesnt it?

Cheers,
Tricky

Hi Andy, yeah I think I can I have the box sitting on the floor of the car (haven't had a chance to review the literature) 8) . But the dyno sheet shows it holding the boost perfectly at 16. As for winding it back, the guy said that she was rock solid at 16 and that I could/should leave it at that level! I might set a lower boost level for the wet but apart from that I think I will leave at 16 (depending on how it performs as I haven't had a chance to thrash it in anger).

Yeah short by 6 but Phil indicated that there is plenty of opportunities to increase the hp but he felt I should sort the brakes out first (seriously). So I am going to do that and also get the suspension set up. I am happy with 195! And yes I dare say 195 put me in second place.

The engine seems both so smooth but also pulls so hard!

Anyway off to find the lead for the scanner...

Cheers

Matt

Great news matt, glad you finally got her back and with a great result too!

What are wrong with your brakes? What size injectors are you running?

Great news Matt.

Glad the the wait was worth it.
Will be interested to hear how it behaves with the aftermarket management once you''ve sussed it all out.

Cheers

Matt,

Dont forget to post your results on the Austarlet forum, as i am sure that a few of the Starlet drivers would be interested in the results too!

Cheers,
Tricky

Hi all have scanned them and will put on here tonight. And yes Andy will definitely put it up on AUStarlet. I think this would put me middle of the pack...

Nice graph Matt - well done! it sucks that you had to wait so long, but you've finally got the results. Time to bring it up here to the drags i think :)

Have you got a graph with the A/F ratio on it?

When you say the boost comes on 500rpm earlier when are you hitting full boost? - Looks to be boosting around 3-3500rpm?

Have you ever checked what injectors are in your car as i had to put new injectors in mine as i ran out of fueling at about 172HP on 17psi @ 5500rpm.

I'm getting a bigger W2A cooler made up for my car maybe next week as the PWR barrel just isn't providing the cooling. :(
