Re: Bullet superchargers
A thought came to me randomly last night, they haven't fitted an inlet restrictor have they?
That would limit top end boost while giving a big kick in the mid range torque.

It is very torquey over 300 NM.
Hoping to start some tuning next week, so will see how it goes.

Re: Bullet superchargers
300nm measured where, even at the crank that's really not a lot?

Dyno chart is at tuners garage, but from memory 320 plus ATW.
Standard NC around 188-190 NM.

Re: Bullet superchargers
I always thought that wheel torque on a dyno should measure quite high? (somehting about gearing or whatever)
When I dyno'd my old car, a Ford Mondeo, the chart showed wheel torque as something like 400nm
from memory the factory quoted engine torque was 140nm or something.

Re: Bullet superchargers
Maybe you are comparing nm to lb-ft?

nope, all metric.
gear ratios, diff, ratio, and tyre size all add to magnify the torque.
WHeel dynos usually use 4th, which on most cars is close to 1:1 ratio.
Then the diff ratio, which on an NB is anywhere from 4.1:1 to 3.6:1
Then whatever sized wheel/tyre combo.

Re: Bullet superchargers
Yeah as kansei said.
A stock na6 dynos at over 1000NM in 1st gear.

Re: Bullet superchargers
Still sounds really low, unless it's a corrected value?
as I said, my Mondeo Dyno'd around 400 (uncorrected)
I would hope that a stock NC would outdo that, let alone a supercharged one!

Re: Bullet superchargers
It originally had 200NM, now it has 325NM.
The actual numbers don't matter, just the difference.
A 60% improvement in torque sounds about right for 7lbs, but a 14% increase in peak power makes me think that there is something wrong here...
Novice1 - Does it hit 7lbs before redline?

No updates Regie. Unless I can find Ecutek tuner I think I am stuck with what I,ve got.

Re: Bullet superchargers
So your mechanic "the best tuner in QLD" couldn't do anything for you?
You might have to head overseas for a good tune. Mike from Moto-east, all I've herd is praise from what he produces

Re: Bullet superchargers
Ron I'm pretty sure Lachlan from ChipTorque can do EcuTeK, he did a great job on my NB.
