Heart Breaking Dyno Dynamics at Millennium...

Just got back from Dyno Rev Party at Millennium Motorsport Sunway organised by a good friend of Satria GTi Club. At first I wasn’t too keen at letting the Pocong let loose on Joshua’s new ‘heart breaker’ Dyno Dynamics treadmill because 1) 99.99% chances some of the horsies will be MIA 2) 50-60% chances it could be more than 10-20 hp 3) I was flat broke with settling summons, SuperSport dampers and 100cc kart test.

True enough, lots of 4G93s registering well below 110hp and another friend who dyno-ed at the same place I’ve gone registered 139hp but at this ‘heart breaker’ dyno merely 119hp, that’s 20 horsies gone! But considering my unbearable curiosity, I went for this Russian Roulette at the very last minute.

The end result is expectedly lower than before but not by much …. 174.6hp/213ftlb(288.7nm) which got me smiled all the way home. ~4hp MIA but gain ~35nm! I suppose much of this down to the value for money ECS Clutch Kit Stg 1 complimented by the DV and cheap & cheerful BKR7E copper plugs.

Having said that, the power delivery wasn’t as linear as before and Pocong is suffering from heat soak as subsequent runs netted 10hp less which means FMIC is inevitable!

I was kind of happy actually but power delivery needs to be more linear

This was done in two years ago

  1. not a fair comparison. you should dyno it back at GT Auto. you know dyno machines can produce different results on the same car with no additional mods.

  2. Yip,
    Yeah considering Millennium's dyno is quite kedekut, i've a hunch that if I dyno at GT Auto, peak hp should be a shy bellow 190hp ...

  3. strange, i would have expected a drop by about 15% especially from dynojet to dyno dynamics. Unless you have done more toyol work over the last two years (or since your dyno in GT) :)

    As GT now has both dynojet and dyno dynamics and they have done back to back test and the results are consistently between 15-20% lower on the dyno dynamics compared to the dynojet.


    funky dyno curve, would have thought the torque curve to be more flat across the rev range. Looks peaky esp at the 3.5k area. But must be fun to drive i am sure.

  4. Mugil,
    That is new because a friend of mine who actually went for dyno got himself 139hp at GT but that day toned down by 20hp on 4G93 NA. Having to think but it, dyno dynamics is overreading the torque figures and the delivery is more jagged than GT dyno jet. That's why I'd rather stick with GT for mod benchmark...
