It would have been great if you were there Grant so we could get actual figures, its impossable to guessGrant wrote:Hi Michael,
TX. Just using Promotec to get fly wheel results on my Troll and also talked to SAC and for this I should be at 143kW and 459Nm, but boost on my Troll is only .6 Bar. Must be the large inter cooler I have and the 3"straight through exhaust. Not bad for 400 +km on it.
What I don't understand is that I also have a 4.5 with manual gearbox (compared to Henning's auto), same size tyres, also 2001 model and I got 129 KW / 298 NM, so what ratio do they use to get to the flywheel power and torque?? It must be different for auto and manual boxes.Picasso wrote:Hi All
Thank you very much for a well organized Dyno Day.
Nice Day, Nice Event and very nice people.
I was quite surprised about the big number of different engine variations and also quite surprised of the performance of the various diesel powered cars.
With 131 KW / 285 NM (flywheel) I was ranking on the lower end…. But nevertheless, I am quite ok with that result. Driving like nanny I will in any case only use a fraction of the power available.
Special Thanks to Oom Mac as well Leon and team/ SAC Boksburg for making this event possible.
….and not to forget Kobus for the nice and interesting chat + the patrol manual.
Thank you all
Vielen Dank

Ian een - a bit of off-topic backup upcoming.IanT wrote:Hay Juice, I was on my way, bankrupted myself fueling up the 4.8 (and got my ticket stamped by SWMABO). I was told that things would end only at 3 but when I phoned Oom Mac at 1.00 he told me they had locked up and you lot where watching the worse dry out on the braai!
Where is Ian twee to back me up getting filled with lead in the flak jacket
