raise your hand if you have made over 300+ hp on a 16g

[tim4g63fast]

yeah just wanted to get a list started for a friend.

He believes that most bolted on dsm 16g cars with proper fuel support make less than 300hp

 

[H82lose91]

I think i qualify!

 

[90laserRSfwd]

I've made 339 fwhp with a big 16g and a 50 wet shot of ZEX juice..

 

[bastarddsm]

Ive never dynoed, but my car traps enough to be making 350chp, at 17psi on a china gt on E85

 

[g_ferg]

Not really sure but i think i blew mine yesterday night never got a chance to dyno it before this.

 

[2gdanny]

i made 346awhp on the e316g just 20 psi on pump, and the fuel mods where megan fpr from ebay, by the way what does your friend drive?

he drives a honduh....go figure

its funny I know the full potential of a e316g but I just want this list as he dose not seem to believe a damn thing I say. In fact I think no matter what I say he just goes opposite.haha

 

[DougR]

Just show him This, 460awhp/469ftlbs


And Curt Brown's 499 awhp

Tell him these are just 2 examples of what a 16G is capable of in the "right" hands. But for average Tuners. 300 whp is just a basic tune.

 

[2gdanny]

some of my friends are honda owners, do what i did even after you beat them back to back to back if they seem to think your car is still week give him a ride home and bring him around our forums im sure he will learn something.

the megan fpr is actually successful? the megan fprs are the ebay fprs with megan brand and add $10-20 more on top for the better brand and customer service--or lack there of, that comes from megan. i was thinking about those (without the megan tag), but there wasn't too many reviews on it, care to tell us about yours?

 

[SOADweskey]

I made 294 AWHP on Ca pump 91 craptane. And this was a tune that was prety conservative as it is my daily driver and I get about 23mpg at this power. And mine isn't even and E3 it's just a Big 16G un-ported.

Well, that sounds promising to me because that is the turbo I will be putting on in the next couple of days. What fuel mods do you have with that?

 

[2gdanny]

the megan fpr wansn't bad at all, the only reson i solled it was becouse its wasnt bling bling as the aeromotive ones that was it, as for the tune let me state that i mad 346 with the e316g but tuned with dsmlink and concervative.


this is the one from sbr--

Slowboy Racing, Inc. :: DSM :: Fuel :: Fuel Pressure Regulators :: Megan Racing :: Fuel Pressure Regulator


and this is the one from ebay--

eBay Motors: FULL ADJUSTABLE GUAGE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR KIT Chrom (item 120298076713 end time Aug-29-08 13:10:22 PDT)

the one i had was the same things as this 2, but it was a from seller and he was selling it as a used megan fpr for 20$ so i got on it, to me it looks just like the sbr one and when i had it it was just as good as my aeromotive.

Pretty sure that I was over 300. As I am dead even with a 600+whp supercharged 2004 viper. I put 3 to 4 cars on a c5 vette that ran 121 in the quarter. and can walk away from my friends on 600cc sportbikes (brand new ones) all on the interstate.

This was on a e316g and e85 on 35-36psi of boost and 26* of timing with a 8800rpm rev limiter. (boost would drop off after 7300rpm to between 30 and 33psi depending on the outside temp).

that was on a stock 4g61t motor.

 

[jrohner]

I did 370.9AWHP on a Dyno Dynamics, which is said to read lower than any other dyno. This was on E85, with the boost 25psi falling to about 22.5.

 

[jrohner]

This was on a e316g and e85 on 35-36psi of boost

35PSI - how? External wastegate or no wastegate at all? Try a different boost gauge for a second opinion; when I first got my car I thought I was at 24psi, got a new gauge and I was actually at like 17. I can't see a 16G holding that kind of boost except maybe on a 1.6L Hyundai. I can hit like 31psi at 3500rpms and still can't get past 24-25psi at like 5 grand. Post a video.

My air-fuel ratios were at 12.0to1 across the whole rev range. and I was at 80% duty cycle on 1000cc injectors at 7000. I was reving to 8800.

I have a big intake and exhaust that helped a ton. I made my own intake pipe and new big k&n filter and went from 31psi to 36psi. I also have a internal gate that is shimmed. the turbo is very ported and the internal gate is dumped to the atmosphere.

this is on a jdm 1.6liter (1g size intake ports but the smaller combustion chamber) with fp2 cams. the car ran great

until a rod bolt let go :-(
I had ZERO knock up to 7000 and then the bolt let loose.


I have had 2 different boost guages in the car. both the same.


Make a really big intake and the biggest exhaust you can stand it makes a difference!

I will have a 2liter in the car soon with the same mods so we will see how that goes.

 

[SOADweskey]

Well, that sounds promising to me because that is the turbo I will be putting on in the next couple of days. What fuel mods do you have with that?

I have a 190 fuel pump re-wired, 720cc injectors (only hitting like 68% duty cycle) and DsmLink.

 

[droppinbottom]

UMMM you don't get traction untill 4th in a awd car?



If I remember correctly I was around the 330 awhp mark on my old 16g.

haha this is so true.

This is on my daily (1989 mirage turbo) I put the engine code I didn't specify the 1989 mirage turbo, sorry.

I own a mirage turbo a 1g and 3 2g's.

Your friend is entirely correct. I would argue that most 16g equipped DSMs do not make 300whp+. I would also argue that this thread is no indication of, well...anything. For obvious reasons.

There is no question that 16g's are capable of 380 and apparently even 499whp. But, the thing is, the number of people cracking 300's is minuscule and are definitely the minority. I would argue that most 16g owners hardly even visit dsmtuners, if at all.

Those less dedicated or less informed probably don't the have the perfect fuel setup, nor the tuning knowledge to make it happen. DSMtuners is something we take for granted.

Unless there has been some drastic change, 2 years ago there was proof that few break 300whp (despite the many who do) in the form of the dyno slips and other available resources that could indicate "the going rate".

The bottom line is that the knowledgeable DSMers break 300 and the less knowledgeable don't.
Care to guess if there are more informed or uninformed DSMers on the streets?
