I hated school!!!
everything was irrelevant to my interests, the teaching methods were polar opposites to the way I’m able to learn, I got far to many detentions and there wasent a dyno room.
so why would i decide to go back to a place of education in my spare time and also pay for it…?
because “learn how to use a dynometer” course is one of the best things i have ever done!!!
Ash and I are both doing the course and this was a second week. This week were looked into ignition timing and the effects it has on torque , power, and was also interesting looking at the changes in the exhaust gas temperature.
this was all done on a holden 5lt which made around the 135-140 rwkw mark.
got the chance to quickly have a run with the Beams, I was playing around with the laptop but it froze on me (computers and I don’t have a stable relationship…)
ended up making 109 rwkw.
The tune seems to have plenty of room for improvement, possibly might get the chance to change it over to TPS X RPM instead of the current MAP sensing.
Its an awesome course and the lecturer Jamie is an absolute champion!
highly recommend it to any one half interested in cars
