gtech #'s :-)

[Marc Swanson]

I finally found a nice stretch of road in southern NH that I could safely do
some gtech runs on.. so I had some fun today :-)

I thought I was turning a bit more power than I actually am but I suppose
that considering that the power calculations are based on wheel horsepower
rather than the engine hp #'s that most manufacturers give I didn't do so
bad.  Here's what I got:

0-60: 7.1sec
max hp:  145
60-0: 135 ft

This is running stock boost (about 6 psi) with an UrQ intercooler.  I
noticed that I could never go as fast after the first run because my IC kept
heat soaking.  So I'm sure this will be an even bigger issue when I up the
boost.  I'm hoping for around 10-15 psi..  Then hopefully I'll be up closer
to 200 (wheel)hp or so.


Later
