Dyno'd today!

Quite pleased with this. Better bhp than a standard 5L griff although I get beaten on the torque. Thanks to Track Car.

Looks good to me. Is it a standard 450?

[pullingpower]

It's not standard.I wish I had before and after figures.
It has V8 developments Stage 3 heads and a fast road cam (Kent "vizzard" cam), and the ACT smooth induction pipe. No other mods and not remapped (yet) and still has the cats.

Nice HP figure. Can't make out peak torque without making myself go cross-eyed - what is it?

[pullingpower]

Peak torque just over 287.

Niiiiiiice - @ what rpm?

nice to see you today Michael. Did the car drive back ok? .. was nice to get the mixture down from lambda 0.6 to something more sensible .. no extra hp to come from having the fuelling mapped tho, the fuelling is still very tidy and your car is nicely modified by RT Racing/V8D (once again another stunning engine from V8D .. those guys really can do no wrong in my opinion). Once again I've seen another car with very good fuelling .. where are all these weak-at-the-top-end TVRs hiding??

Sadly (for you) the 5 litre griff has spent the afternoon on the rollers and now sports a bit more hp (from 262 to 284) .. but yeah your car outperformed both the std 5 litre griffs I've tested so far on outright hp where it counts in the performance end of the rev range.

Oooh.. thats impressive for a 450!


Nice numbers!

It amazes me the difference these engines put out, my std 450 had 254bhp but 300lb torque at Surrey RR.

in that case you have a very good car to start with
what are you having done ?

[225]

Just baby steps, getting the rear silencer mod done so more sound rather than power. Trying desperatly not to get on the slippery slope of engine mods.... Is that your engine bay in your profile? the purple looks great!
