I booked a appointment for a remap at WGT on Monday morning at 8:30am, pretty excited on going there as i have never been and finding out the power i would get at the end, what kind of hp would i be looking at with the following mods i have done so far:
HKS Titanium Racing Muffler Exhaust 102mm piping - 115mm tip (Connects from front pipe so cat is deleted)
Blitz SUS Power Induction kit.
Apexi power FC.
Sard 280L fuel pump.
Guess it would be hitting the 300hp mark?
Also is there anything to do around WGT? shopping center or anything?
300+
And no there is nothing to do near pips, I went for a walk along the canals which says it all .
Say Hi to Pip from my side :), there is a nice resturant near Pips-just by the Shell Petrol Station. Apart from that you always have nice cars parked in Pip\'s Car Park so you can spend sometime admiring them :). You can always ask Pip to allow you to see through the dyno window so that you can record your dyno session. I highly rate WGT and if Pip is mapping it, then you are assured that you will run a safe map and power.
Best of Luck
Don\'t forget to say hi to him from my side Lollll

Don\'t know how to pronounce "Syed" Guess i will just say the 20b guy from London :D
Lolllll You can say "Sa yi ed". Don\'t you watch Eastenders, you have Syed there! Off course I am not gay! But it\'s the same name lolllll :D :D :D :) :) :)

If your early (like I always seem to be) I always go and get some pancakes at the little chef next to the shell garage. Bit of a walk from pips (but I\'ve done that before).
Once car is on dyno you can watch behind the rattly glass of the custom viewing corridor (just put your hand on it to stop the rattle). Then you can enjoy watching it get put through its paces. Always interesting the first time :D

Cheers mate! :D
so what power you getting then?
324.3 at the fly at .8 bar but your maxing out the standard fuel system. so you need an uprated fuel system and then another mapping session. may as well do it the expensive way.
made 290Hp
Yeap, made about 290hp and 259ft, i will get the dyno sheet posted later on...
Could have made abit more but as Pip says it had a fuel pump problem, problem was that feed to it doesn\'t get full battery voltage. what it should do is approx 9 volts off boost and then jump to full battery voltage when u get boost, but its only jumping to 11volts. its caused by resistance in the wiring.
I didn\'t bother with that as it would only make about 10-20hp i would think, but the injectors was maxed out.

Good or bad i don\'t know but is the rex not 280hp standard? pretty poor to just get a extra 10hp!
What year is your car? As it was only the later ones that had 280bhp and the earlier ones had 255.
Is your HP measured at the hubs? As mazdas I think mazdas HP rating was at the flywheel so you have got a larger increase in power than you would think. But at the worst case you have gained 40HP. Which is good.
At what boost level did you achieve that HP number?
Sort your fuel system out, pump, filter, injectors and FPR and you should see some more HP with some more boost.
Is that graph not flywheel power?

I can\'t tell as Im using my iPhone to view it.
I thought pips dyno was a hub dyno?
Depending on his year of car then head gained either 40hp or 10.
I think I would be happy with that without upgrading fuel system, as he did say the injectors were maxed out.
Mine\'s is a 2000 model.
Am unsure if its measured at hubs or flywheel, but i sent a mail to ask, whats it mean by the hubs? unsure on boost level too as i don\'t have a boost controller installed.
Am pretty much going to sit with this till the engine goes as don\'t want to waste money on build the standard engine when i have single turbo conversion plans later when engine gives up.
Question? when will u know if your engine is going to give up and its due for its rebuild?
Keep an eye on oil and water level. It would be ideal to check compression often! but then again, it would largely depend on the age of the engine and the abuse it has encountered during its living life..So many factors are attached. I would say keep an eye on the water and Oil level.
Cheers

Guess if oil and water drinks fast then time is near?
Pip was saying "Yours made nearly 300 flywheel" so i guess its at the flywheel.
If it goes through water then yes you may need a rebuild but if you look after the car, change oil and plugs regular and run it on vpower and not standard fuels then there is nothing to say that it won\'t last for a lot longer.
