So after having the injectors cleaned, the Tamora is pulling what it should.....

From a 3.6? That's some good numbers!

You're 20bhp off a standard healthy 4.0 - that's really good.

It hasn't even needed any mapping for this, just had the injectors cleaned. It made 333bhp before.
The torque is a bit lower than expected, but hey ho !

That's good, I had my totally standard 3.6 on the dyno in May and it made 343.6 and 290lb. I was very pleased indeed.

When I first ran the car on Joo's RR, it hit 333, then started to lean out so we didn't run it further.
I went away and did fuel pressure checks and that was fine. So the next step was to have the injectors cleaned.

The result was a far happier AFR up the rev range and the power delivery shown.

What set up do you have, as we have almost identical bhp figures, yet your torques are nearly 30 less than mine.......or is torque still a matter of conjecture/estimate etc etc

349 v 352 and 260 v 288.............. seems a bit of a difference!

To note, mine was done on Joo's dyno when he worked at RaceProved

As far as I can tell the setup is standard.... I was surprised that the torque was 'so ' low but cannot expain why, maybe my compression is slightly down??
