My Dyno Run

[adamarchibald]

Well I finally got my fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator
installed. Stuck the FWD fuse in and gave the car a bunch of runs on
the dyno. She pulled 145.2 hp and i believe 141 max torque. I have
the chart scanned and will post it for you guys to look at. I would
have liked to hit 150+ but I will blame it on being a very hot and
humid day when the test was ran. I now deffinitly need a new turbo
and an engine management system

As for the drive impression after the fuel pump and fuel pressure
regulator, there is a noticable difference. The car pulls much
better near the top end, no more sloppy feeling. I am also looking
for an electronic boost controler first or second hand. Anyone have
any and what price (please list if they are in US, Canadian, Aus, etc
dollars).
Thanks Guys!

Adam,

What do you have done to your Legacy Turbo power wise??? Did you do a dyno
run when the car was still stock?

What are the charictoristics of the turbo? How much moding is
required?

[adamarchibald]

Unfortunatly i never did i dyno run stock. Would have been nice to
have a base line, especially because we are not sure if the car pulls
propper number while in FWD mode. As for the mods here is the list.
IC install off a 95 EURO WRX
Over boost from 8psi to 13psi using manual boost controler (crap)
Custom 2.5' Exhasut with downpipe and high flow cat
K&N air filter (wow that added 10 hp atleast ;P )
removed snorkus from air intake
high pressure fuel pump, and fuel pressure regulator
that is it for engine mods

next on the block, bigger turbo, EMS, and EBC

Can you get a little more specific on exactly you've added to your
car from stock?

Oh, and specifics on what pump and regulator?

I love the Apexi AVC-R, but the HKS and Blitz units are very nice as
well.

I will take some pictures of everything i can and post them with some
descriptions. Has anyone else dynoed their cars with simillar mods?
This was about the hourse power i expected still running with our
crappy little turbo, but does anyone have any number to compair?
Keep in mind all you Auzzies that this is a North American Legacy

Since Cobb Tuning is moving to Salt Lake City this year, i'll have
access to an AWD dyno, and am surely going to get some numbers from
my car when i get a chance.
