After all this time I am having my car dyno tuned with all my mods. The guy at the garage has told me that the car is putting out 130 whp at 4000 rpm and he is still way off with the tuning.

Is this good or is this bad with all my mods??

**DON'T QUOTE THE POST ABOVE YOURS NEWB**
is that with a nitrous shot or without? If it's with a nitrous shot, it's way off.

You've gained about 15 HP if it's with the nitrous shot.

^ his mods are listed in his sig

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>1998 Beta 1 with Alpine Supercharger, SMT6, 4-2-1 headder, 2.5" exhaust with sports cat, magnecore leads, Injen CAI, Mad Johns BBK (awsome!) on front, Black Diamond vented and groved discs on rear. 270 Cams, KSpec Intake pulley, OBX Cam gear, OZ Spec underdrive pulley, 17" OZ Supaleggera's, Lowered 30mm with KYB AGX Struts with MS Design Springs, 25HP shot of Cold Fusion Nitrous and Custom Sound!!

CP Pistons 8.8:1, MLS Gasket, KSpec Engine Mounts, 42lbs Racetronix Injectors.</div>

130whp with any kind of FI is WAAAAAY off. Even untuned you should be 150ish at the very least. I pulled off 141whp with I/H/E/UDP/Cam Sprocket.

Way off is right. Do you have the 1.8L? Tuned you should see at least 50 above that I would say, depending on boost

first, i HOPE that is WITHOUT spraying nitrous.

second, that is very low power. you should be pushing around those numbers with these mods that you have (not including s/c): SMT6, 4-2-1 headder, 2.5" exhaust with sports cat, Injen CAI, 270 Cams, KSpec Intake pulley, OBX Cam gear, OZ Spec underdrive pulley. those mods should have you in the 130-140whp range.

with the supercharger, even if it was at like 5 psi you should be up to like 160-170whp or so. WITH nitrous you should be seeing numbers around 200whp.

Yah i thought they were pretty decent numbers for mild N/A, then i saw you had a S/C

You should be pulling WAYYYY more than that. How much boost did it pull on the dyno? if for some reason the car isnt boosting or the SC isnt installed yet then those numbers are fine.

I thought the figures were a bit low, however this is at 4000 rpm as he has not taken the revs any higher due to an emergency. I should know the power figures by the end of the week so will post up the chart.

But I did think that 130 whp was quite good at 4000 rpm...maybe not looking at your comments

I think because I have dropped the compression ratio it is affecting my power output. I think im just going to have to get some sort of water injection and a smaller supercharger pulley to rectify the situation!!

This is without the Nitrous

just because he has a nitrous shot available does not mean it was fired durring the dyno run.

Damn guys! Your jumping all over his nuts without realizing the entire situation. Read what he said: "130hp @ 4000rpms".
Now how many of you have seen a Tib PEAK at 4000rpms? Go look at the dyno thread and tell me how many people make over 150whp before 4krpms.
He could gain at least another 30-40whp before peaking.
