rr day Halifax - results and pics.

a K03 car, maintaining power to beyond 7k rpm?

Hmmm.

K04 car i can believe!

....When it eventually gets published later next week, check out my Dyno-Dynamics plots (K03) - The max power is held up to 6.8k revs and doesn't nose-dive but just gently eases off.

You guys think I have boost leak? I thought around 250lbft was low. May be worth getting the forge DV my standard one may well be leaking. but wouldn't my bhp be down too with a boost leak?

[chungster]

interestin RR...cos one of the biggest differences between the K03 and K04 was the ability to maintain boost/power beyond 5.5k rpm from all info i've seen in the past 4 years. Apart from the "one" custom example that did over 300bhp I've yet to see any others until this graph from yesterday.

Look forward to how yours did on JKM's RR, but i bet it wasn't anywhere near 300bhp

tis a curious graph tho, almost OEM style with flat torque curve. Sure its APR and not a Bluefin remap?

u run less boost at top end, so maybe the leak, if there is one, only happens when its boosting higher. which would then point to dv not holding boost just when ur remap is asking for the full monty. Maybe your Forge Spacer doesn't help matters either!

they dont nose dive that much. the way people go on about this you would think the turbo just stops spinning all together. post#9 they dont seem to drop off steeply to me, its more of a level out and gradual drop http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=9545.0

RR do you have a dsg map as well. Did i red somewhere that the DSG map will let you hold on to power a bit longer

Looks like it was a cracking day out guys and some spot on figures too, bet the weather certainly helped.
I need to stop reading threads like these as I just depress myself by seeing all the cars again and wish I was there..  

Gaz - Are you S2+ now I take it? Awesome figures bud   How does yours compare with Tom's on the road? With you      having  a noticable power advantage and Tom being S-Tronc?

Tom - Loving the Turinis  

Matt - Nice to see the motor kicking out some healthy horses now mate  

Bacillus -   Where do you hide the Nos bottle?

Joe - Poser!

There's also the upgrade to Revo2+ to consider if you change your pump.

No need to change the software but it would allow you to run stage 2 to its full potential. Thats why pumps were invented.

But for £50 it's a no brainer really.

But stage 2+ makes the HPFP run to its full potential too i think.........

Let's see if father Christmas will remove the spacer and fit forge DV. APR map @ awesome, will call them Monday, there is an updated map I have been told

....Yes I have the Revo DSG map but the production version was loaded after the dyno sessions. Pre-release Revo DSG map, early version from March, was already loaded.

I'm not greatly fussed about maintaining max power at the higher revs as I tend to have usually shifted gear soon after 5.5 revs anyway. More useful on track though to have the power stay on, but like you say, the engine doesn't just suddenly give up!

is bacilus def k03 then. anyone know his mods and software. dead impressed with that.

....That's what I think too, chungster. And hence by running to its full potential along with 2+ software encouragement of other components, the whole is worked harder and the envelope of tolerance is reduced.

We each want different things from our car (as stokeballoon says).

....Some say that The Stig regularly eats two turbo's before breakfast.

Some say that bacillus is running a K04 under his hood.

With curves and figures like that, bacillus is either female or must be doing something special. The word on the street whispers "K.. 0.. 4" but is bacillus going to spill about his mods or will it all remain shrouded in secrecy?
