Dyno'ed the cobra!! *PIX* and *videos*

what size are those wheels??

that bish needs the imrc plates cleaned

Ring flap is just what it sounds like. It usually occurs on higher mileage cars at high rpm. It's not major, you will just burn a little more oil. Basically the rings are flapping in the cylinders at high rpm and letting some oil from the bottom end into the combustion chamber. Mine had the same thing when i dyno tuned it, it didn't happen til about 4900-5500rpm. Your just losing a little compression and power, it doesn't mean you need a rebuild. Blue means your burning oil, grey smoke means you're running rich and all the fuel is not being burned and being shot out your tailpipes, and white means you are burning coolant or water. Just FYI. Could explain some of your lower numbers though.

yeah, i think im with tom....i dont think my car would be burning oil at 37k miles....is it hard cleaning the plates...?? will sea foam help?? dirty imrc's equals less power right?? maybe that explains my low numbers....

my car doesnt throw any smoke if i juss rev it in neutral.....today me and my brother checked and revved it till 6,500 and no smoke....i guess it does it only under load?? can someone explain that??

Every car smokes on the dyno. I can't be helped, it's just a by-product of combustion. When you're going down the road or the track, you don't notice it because you're moving. Not to mention you're not looking in your rear view all the time. When your car is stationary and being loaded on the dyno, smoke is common. Too much smoke though, and you could have a problem. I wouldn't be too concerned about it though.

Nice gains with the pullies!! I'm impressed

thanks, yeah i asked a few friends which had gotten dynoed bout a week before i did and they said it was normal.....i do think i need to clean my imrc plates though....will seaf oam do it or do i need to take them off....i dont know what they are or where they are...never seen em.....can anyone pinpoint it to me plz ? thanks

anyone??

You can do the seafoam, but i would just open the intake and take a dremel to the are the build up

wtf do i know, i gots a 5lobra

Congrats, your Kebra is sweet.

NICE gains man! More than I would have thought . Before you know it, you will be @ 300RWHP

who me?

you need cams or FI in a 2v to beat me

im hoping i cant get there with just simple bolt ons....but i dont know....right now im not gonna do any more hp mods cuz i cant hook the tires that well.....so my next mod will be MM uppers and lowers....we'll see from there what mod i do next...
