This little V6 is getting dyno'd Monday

[97rs4life]

Wow, I can't believe thats all it made. Did you do a build up thread on here?

work in progress yet. It will be around 250-260rwhp soon enough. Remember the engine only has 90 miles on it now. It is still being broken in and I didn't want to push it too hard. Just had to make sure the tune was good for driving around and breaking it in more.

A/F and timing are spot on with what they should be though which is good.

Oh yea and once I get it broken in and around 250hp, then the nitrous comes in....200 shot combined in two stages...400+ horse out of a v6 then

[meissen]

Not bad, Travis! Awesome! Can't wait to hear future results!

Get those bugs out and dialed in. I'm surprised to see what V6 engines can make.

sorry but I don't think you are going to get 50 more horsepower in better conditions, maybe 15-20 more. I guess we will see. I'm still waiting on that race motor to motor...

that is because you don't know the difference from a heat soaked engine that was not being ran all out on the dyno with full exhaust and a car that is broken in and running a cut out after sitting for an hour to cool down.

It will motor....motor right on past that red T/A of yours ha

What I do know is you better watch what you say, that little v6 still hasn't proved anything to me in the past 2 years of collecting dust in the polebarn .

lol, you guys are funny

[sman]

Oooooo, this is getting good!

A stock 3800 puts down roughly 160 right?

yea an auto 6 usually does 155-170 stock

265 motor, god only knows with the spray.

Well we figured out the PO341 code I am getting. the magnet on the cam sprocket that runs off the timing belt is facing the wrong way. The magnetic part is towards the engine instead of facing the sensor. We ran a fiber optic camera where the sensor goes and turned the engine over by hand to see it

So now I get to have fun taking the front cover off the engine and flipping it around and putting it back together....grrrr

This goes back to the original builder as the code was on after the first rebuild. Geez, fun times in the modding world right? lol

[97rs4life]

Well I have the car back on the hoist right now and the parts are coming off. Need to get this magnet flipped around. Hopefully have it ready to go again later tonight.

[sman]

Sounds good Travis! Keep us updated! Could pick up some ponies from a jacked up sensor!?!

[97rs4life]

yea got the magnet flipped around and cover back on. The person helping me grabbed the oil sending unit while we were setting the cover in place and it snapped (cheap plastic)...so now I will have one of those here in the morning. lol. It just doesn't end


Also finished wiring my two stage nitrous setup tonight. Turned out really good. I will snap some pics and such in the next couple days. I need to detail the engine bay again and get it looking shiny again first.

glad you got it fixed man.
