Virtual dyno for street tuning.
1.00 correction, it is a start.

Yes mass vs acceleration, with engine rpm, tire size, and gear ratio it should be darn near as spot on to a dynojet. It might make the spring dyno day to confirm.

Re: 91 Galant VR4 #597 Project redemption

I have put 600 miles on the car. The turbo is just about toast so I will be installing a mutt level 1 turbo and some 760cc injectors I picked up. I am also going to swap in a spec stage 3 clutch or similar and a set of stock cams.

Also a set of tires and better suspension will make it a better driving car.

Re: 91 Galant VR4 #597 Project redemption

I did get 1100 miles on the car.

But now the knock off 16g is shot, it does not make much boost anymore. And with the race car needing a few things back to get up and running I picked up a Spec stage 3 clutch, Evo 8 FMIC, and I will swap the cams, cam gears for stock units, and pull the shims out of the valve springs.

And I want to pick up a set of stock 2g wheels or something for the car, right now I am borrowing a set of rims and tires from a friend.

So the goal for the car is better drive ability, better MPG, and less bangs/rattles, and hook up the power steering again.

I agree with all of those goals!

Re: 91 Galant VR4 #597 Project redemption

Time for a small update.

I have finally made progress on this thing. Its up and running with the MUTT 1 turbo, 17psi on pump gas with the back up race motor, spec stage 3 clutch, winebro FP, AEM EMS vs 2, etc.

I figure its making about 260ish AWHP and has been a decent DD for 2000miles.

My next plans are install EBC, put the PS back in, buy a set of wheels for my 15" drag radials for summer use, and I might even track down AC parts.

I also installed a babe seat car base if I need to haul little Liana anywhere I am set to do so.
