bhp predictions ????

[shaunwil]

I\'m off to pips tomorrow to finalise my LPG tuning and im wondering what i should expect :mmmm

The car has a stock nikki carb with a impco 300a bolted on top. I have pips stainless exhaust system without any of the emissions stuff.

I\'ve just renewed my dizzy cap, rotor arm and coils for new and pip will be removing the emissions stuff off the engine tomorrow.

The engine is a stock port 12a n/a with 110k miles on the clock.

The LPG is 107-110 ron so makes this interesting

whats the prize for guessing correctly?

 I am going to say 70hp at the hubs

Thought the stock setup was more thn that with the emissions on

Shaun

I think Mazda were a little optimistic in their figures and it\'s only a guess

[Brett]

I will say 100atw :yes

[John Yorke]

I will say 100atw :yes

How can you quote ATW with a hub dyno???

[Brett]

Because I have no technical basis for my prediction and thought 100 was a nice round number

[shaunwil]

lol, atw is 10% less. Im hoping for about 100bhp at the hubs.

Probably overly optimistic.

Shaun

[grinder]

hummm i reckon about 105 at the hubs

[mpk490p]

my 1st gen with a racing beat exhaust and all the emmissions removed made 115 atw\'s on the re worx dyno but that only had 44k miles on it.

I\'m not sure how much you will lose on the gas, my BMW doesnt seem to lose much but its a multipoint seqntial system.  

I reckon you should see 110 at the hubs on petrol, maybe 90 - 95 on gas.

good luck tomorrow

PS:   I took a stock first gen round the track on the north weald activity day and managed to drift quite well with no power and an open diff , so you will have a great little car when its done.

[shaunwil]

Yep, the handling is so much fun. Get the same feeling with that as with the FD, just at much lower speeds

Can\'t wait to swap all my bushes over and have it running like new !

Hopefully with the gas running higher octain i should see good results
