Plenum induction sound.....

[astra22bertoneauto]

Heres a treat for you all......1st video of the plenum sound with K&N filter behind the front n/s/f fog light.

Not the best video with sound maybe?

 

[Matt]

Bloody hell that sounds nice!

lmao my computer table vibrating from the base

that is deep !!!!

 

[astra22bertoneauto]

Cheers. The exhaust helps but the video doesnt do it justice much. Had the roof down as well but maybe should try with roof up?

Hehe mine did too. Have you 5.1 surround with the box under the desk?

 

[MikeS]

yeh

 

[Sjdickso]

Sounds nice.

 

[astra22bertoneauto]

cheers

Well hopefully tomorrow i can get a better video on the rollers.......

Standard engine but with improved airflow in and out. Whats everyones guess at figures??? Id be happy with standard bhp for the mo but i can feel improvement in torque.

115k engine with service history (so oil got changed a few times haha)

Mods:

Plenum with K&N filter
4-1 manifold
2.5" system with 200cpi cat.

143
it do sound good

 

[MikeS]

torque is undervalued imo

especially on the z22se where get a nice amount as standard

RR'D Lottery as they say but around 140 ish?

 

[Matt]

I'd say 140-145 but again, it's totally dependent on the RR being used.

 

[astra22bertoneauto]

Well the results are in............heres the video.

TX Autosport done the power run and heres the results.....

How did they get 158bhp from that graph, when it doesn't cross the 150 scale on the right?

I dont know Matt, Weird isnt it. I might go back down there and ask them for the full run specs. I can only guess it hit that figure in another gear or something? Or on the 1st or second run? Printouts are of the third run.

They also didnt attach any measuring devices to the cam cover, so not sure whether that affects it either?

Whats your opinion on the RR?

 

[MikeS]

engine sounds like a type r

Can't say I've seen many results from TXAutosport before. Did they do a run up before to calculate transmission loss, or are the just plucking that figure from fresh air?

 

[astra22bertoneauto]

On the video the first minute they did a "smallish" run. Whether that is how they calibrate or not I dont know - should of asked really.

 

[Sjdickso]

Nice results but as pointed out it never goes over 150 on the print out which is very odd, you seem to be getting low figures on your torque and the typical Z22SE 2-3k dip is missing which could be to do with the intake?

I am no RR or print out specialist but that final figure doesn't look right or the plotting to other graphs a I have seen for 2.2 but that's the RR'd lottery, take it with a pinch of salt.

Nice video though and car sounds well.

 

[evocarlos]

me ether but even a standard engine with just a K'n'N show 150hp
heres mine from 2008ish i think you can see the torque is 160 peck
