youre running the vf30 and the stock intercooler right russell?
The PE series turbos produce way more power than the vf series turbos. the PE1818 is basically the same size as the vf30 and vf34 except PE series has bigger internals and it is dual ball bearing. Not only that freddie has a bigger top mount. Russell, you are also only running 15psi of boost right? Freddie is at 17.5-18psi. Doesnt it seem kinda strange how freddies car running more boost and a bigger turbo with bigger intercooler only be 5 hp more than you and still less than vishnu's strongest stage 2. I think something is going on here. |

I dunno guys.....
but it is getting to be VERY interesting!! I payed $2,000 for Vishnu TMIC + ECUTEK + 1hr tuning (thought it was included).....plus $1,300 for the BETTER turbo........ and get 6 more HP than those without these mods. Don't get me wrong guys, I am happy for your guys numbers....but when comparing the mods and #'s....... Shiv said his dyno was "RECALIBRATED" since my last run with 259.8 whp.....and also said it was due to a "bad batch of gas in California".... I guess we got hit bad, here in the BAY AREA, with this "bad gas". Now...it is alot smoother, and seems to be A LITTLE faster....(pe1818).....but I am sure you guys would be about the same....since there is only a 6 hp difference. hahahahaha Anyway, I'll let you guys talk now.....I have a feeling I am in a LOOSING situation now..... -freddie Last edited by 1WRX2NV; 02-28-2003 at 02:05 PM. |

All cars work differently though I seen a people posting how they only get 230 whp from the vs2, and then others who will post saying they got 252 whp from the vs2, there is a thread right now in factory forced forum I believe, in which people are talking about what numbders they got from the vs2...
Im woundering if i up grade my ic will i only be at about 245 as well, hmmmm dont know if its worth putting 600 down for a bigger tmic then splitter 100, hopefully I can use stock bov, then of course have to get my car re-tunned being I have the ecutec another 200.00... damn thats puts me around 900.00.... Anyways what u boosting at freddie. |

First off...I am not trying to BASH on anyone, so I don't want any pissy replies or PHONE calls...
OK, here is my theory...... I started out @ 259.8 whp......(basic Stage 2 w/ UNICHIP + EMI). Now, I put on the Larger TMIC+ silicone hoses + PE1818 turbo + ECUTEK....and I gain "lets say"....20hp. That would put me to 279.8 whp...right?? Now, the Dyno is "RECALIBRATED".....there is a loss of 13.7 hp... ( I get this # because I am NOW getting 246.1 whp)..... Shouldn't my numbers be: 279.8 - 13.7 = 266.1 Still MORE than BEFORE the dyno was "RECALIBRATED".....because of the EXTRA MODS..... OK now lets say...we take my 259.8 (stage 2 w/ unichip+EMI)...put it on the "RECALIBRATED" dyno.... -13.7 = 245.8...... Now let add my mods....Larger TMIC + silicone hoses + PE1818 turbo + ECUTEK @ "lets say" 20hp... that would be 245.8 + 20.0 = 265.8..... get it? or even if I only gained 10hp with all those EXTRA mods...that would be 255.8....that s about a 10hp diffence than what I have now!! Maybe I am all wet...what do you think?? -freddie Last edited by 1WRX2NV; 02-28-2003 at 02:53 PM. |

and I know each car is different....but when I was 1 of the 1st to have the Stage 2...they were impressed on how stong my car was and how high the number were. So, it's not like I have a car that produces low numbers. -freddie Last edited by 1WRX2NV; 02-28-2003 at 07:12 PM. |

The answer is really simple and if I had a dollar for each time I explained it, I wouldn't need to tune cars
With CA 91 gas, we are OCTANE LIMITED. That means, no matter what modifications we have, we will only be able to make a certain amount without running into detonation. You cannot play the addition game with respect to additional mods. Things like intercoolers, turbos, etc,. will have a much more profound change on output consistency, torque curve shape, etc,. than absolute peak hp numbers which will be bottlenecked at a certain point. In the case of a WRX, the MOST we've been able to safely make on pump gas, on our dyno, is 250-260wheel hp. In fact, anything over 250 wheel hp is considered a resounding success. On 93 octane, we usually see an increase of about 10-15 wheel hp at Stage 2-like levels. On 100+ octane, the sky is pretty much the limit as long as there is enough airflow supplied by the induction system (turbo, ic, etc,.) Even our Stage 3 car, on pump gas, has only been tested to make 260 wheel hp. On 100 octane race gas, however, it makes 368 wheel hp since we are able to run appropriate boost, fuel and ignition values. Values that simply aren't safe when running 91 octane. Cheers, shiv |

OK, so I had 259.8 on your dyno....now I put on a TMIC, hoses, BETTER tubo, and ECTUEK.....now I have 246.1
When you add mods...it is not common to LOOSE...you gain something. You guys tuned JT2s car on WED. and he has stage 2 ..... he has 252.8....and WITH OUT UNDERDRIVE PULLY INSTALL!! http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...highlight=shiv Now I was tuned on Tue. night...with stage 2+ AND a BETTER TURBO and I get 246.1......I din't get what you guys are saying.... thats a 6 hp difference with less This looks like it would NOT be worth getting stage 2+ for $1000.00 or more!! -freddie Last edited by 1WRX2NV; 02-28-2003 at 06:59 PM. |

The larger Turbo and intercooler should both be adding lag. Do you have your turbo charts both before and after? |

It is kind of low from what I've been seeing what others have output with some of the same mods and sometimes lower boost. If you look @ Dan's (Godspeed) dyno plots on the 1818 , with 92 octane and conservative tuning, the numbers are alot higher. I don't think the octane of the gas was such a major factor. I understand that dynos are all different, but what's going on? I'm curious and want to know.
From ClubWRX: First one is with stock injectors, uppipe, downpipe, exhaust Unichip. Nothing else running 15.5 PSI. This second chart he upgraded the fuel system and added a Blitz IC running 19 PSI. The blue line is the stock WRX chart. |

Freddie,
Why didn't you tell us that you were running a PE1818 and not the old VF30/34 that you used to run? Don't you think that would have helped the cause? I spent 3 hours trying to get what I believed to be a VF30/34 to behave like a VF30/34. shiv PS. Dynapack's read higher than our dyno. Last edited by Vishnu Performance; 02-28-2003 at 04:17 PM. |

That is why I held up my fingers saying 270. You should have said..."oh by the way...we had some work done on the dyno so now it reads more accurate but lower numbers. So, not knowing this fact....I saw lower numbers and felt that something was wrong. In my mind, thinking..."this has been a waste of my money".....again not knowing this fact. But then I see guys with LESS parts on their car pulling higher numbers...same thing came to mind. And if you saw something wrong on the dyno...why didn't you let me know? The only thing you asked was "what octane do you have"? To a customer, who has spent a lot of money with your company, And who advertized or "showed off" your product, so everyone would know about Stage 2....honestly... I was disappointed!! I even said so when I saw the numbers. And I feel that with the turbo I have on...and the propper tuning....I should have better results. With a fast, safe wrx. Maybe, many people don't know about turbos, the way you explained to me when you called this afternoon, but a lot of people are thinking that I should see slightly higher numbers.....not saying this is ABSOLUTELY correct....but thats what people are thinking....and telling ME!! I am sorry if you are tired of explaining this to people all the time, because they don't know, but hey...they are the ones spending thousands of $$, so repeated explanations are needed and are part of the business. I don't want you thinking I am a BAD guy, but Shiv, people are already saying things, and I have many times defended your name....to people I have never even met. When they post...you usually say something to them....so you know what I say is true. Now Shiv, I am not saying the tuning was bad....I told you that it is A LOT SMOOTHER, and feels slightly better. I am NOT trying to tell everyone, NOT to buy from you. If this was the case I wouldn't have spent extra money myself, with your company. Hearing other peoples stories and seeing the results I got....put up a BIG "?" in my head. Now when people get dyno tuning from you, at least the don't have the expectation of a higher number than the last time you tuned their car.....like in my case. If there is something we can do, for the tuning with this turbo, now that you know I had and have a PE1818, ....let me know. Thanks -freddie |

Shiv,
When was your dyno supposedly "recalibrated"? |

Freddy,
I did tell you that the dyno has been recalibrated since you ran that 260 wheel hp. I told you several times on several different days. I even told you not to expect to break 260 wheel hp when you came in for a reflash. If you, or anyone else, has any questions, see: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...aseline+vishnu It explains the differences in testing proceedures between now and several months ago when we first got the dyno. It also explains how a stock WRX which dyno'd a long time ago at 176 wheel hp came back since the dyno calibration and made 165 wheel hp. The difference isn't actually due to a re-calibration of the dyno software. It had to do with standardizing the testing proceedure (intake temp sensor placement, run duration, cooldown period, etc,.) These standards, like all standards, are set over time based upon trying different testing methods. The net result of the standardization has reduced dyno numbers by a few %. I am well aware that people like seeing big numbers regardless on how slow or fast their car runs. But them there is just the facts. Cheers, Shiv Last edited by Vishnu Performance; 02-28-2003 at 07:18 PM. |
