What's with all the arrogant replies? I'm asking nicely what's the go. How about we grow up a bit kids. I'm stating the facts and asking nicely for advice.

so practice makes perfect
if you do a couple more runs and ur car aint running any better but ur reaction times are good
mayb get the car tuned n dynoed again
it would make sense that if ur car has the pwoer claimed then u'd b runnign a bit better, but dyno numbers can be a fair bit out of whack at times.u'd b hoping to pull some good numbers as ur car has a bit down to it so by no means is it a sloucher
good luck with it
Thanks. Yeah, honestly I didn't think my first run would be good. And I'm keen to go back.

either you are a super bad driver or your tuner has fooled you with some dodgy dyno numbers.
No, Last time I checked the dyno graph (which when I get home I'll post a picture of) it said atw kw in 4th, but I'll confirm for you it's not disney watts
FYI All, the hondata install and tuning was done at Springwood by James during the Hondata Mass Group Buy at Advanced Performance Centre (APC) in Springwood. You're in Brisbane barefootbonzai, what's there dyno? Maybe you've had a car on it or can confirm it spits out cheap numbers.
Ironically, I remember reading your post here which said "why do people think a couple more runs are gonna cut a second off". So you're saying I'm a shit driver, which I accept based on it being my first run, but I won't cut a second off?

Attached is the timeslip. I have good memory, thanks.

Thanks. And I completely agree with you. But if you infer what barefootbonzai said in his other post, 1 second which he said couldn't be cut down even with practise, would bring me into the rough expected range. This is one of the reasons why I started this thread, instead of just heading out. Well, Brisbane is raining and will be for another week so I won't get a chance.

Umm, no. Dyno graph is coming. And as said above, it was on the Hondata Group Buy a few months back, tuned on APC's Dynos by James. You seriously think a hub dyno would spit out 115 for my engine with mods?
Sorry, my USB cable doesn't work so I'll have to go home and take a digital camera photo of the timeslip.

I think they are just trying to help, you should understand what they trying to say behind their words...
-
i reackon u came off your throttle too early
hence the lower mph speed ?
-
maybe your Vtec fell off hehehehe
nah serious mate there's something wrong with your time. Give it a few go. Btw what rpm were you launching it @
-
where is the attachment? 72mph is unrealistically low but, maybe 92 for your ET sounds more right...
-
Each dyno reads differently. Your 115kW cannot be compared to someone elses's DC2 or DC2R run on a different dyno.
Everyone has said, your 72mph number is wrong. 72mph is not a 15.2s trap speed. Why? An Accord Euro which gets 15.8s traps at 91.8mph.
If you are asking for help and advice, you are going to have to be able to accept any criticisms and to think why you have some dodgy numbers.
In my opinion, the device measuring your trap speed was malfunctioning.

Maybe I did come off the throttle to early.
Here's the full dump of the data until I take a pic of the timeslip. Maybe it'll shed some more light on the issue?
Reaction: 1.023
60ft: 2.346
330ft: 6.498
660ft: 9.889
MPH: 72.42
KPH: 116.54
1000ft: 12.770
ET: 15.215
MPH: 91.59
KPH: 147.41
Over/Under: 15.215
OOOH. I think I've quoted the wrong MPH!! There's two. The bottle MPH is 91.59 which sounds alot closer to what you guys are thinking!
Which brings us back to the original question!
Thanks guys!

well there you go buddy, should check before you go jumping to conclusions.
And yes i guaranty you that, even if you had another 100 runs with the same setup you won't cut off a whole second.
I'm assuming you are on real street tyres
best case senario...
you get a 60ft time of 2.0 which would equate to around 14.6-14.8
-
tats more like it lol Still , room for improvement ! Thats stock DC2 territory.
So get out and practice more !
-
sounds much better...
looks right now.. just improve your 60ft and your time will drop into high 14's without an issue.

Thanks. I wasn't disagreeing with you, just a mishap on my behalf.
Which brings this thread back to the original point.
I think without stretching this out any longer, I'll get my ass down to Willowbank again, get a few more runs and see how we go before I come to my original question of why the car is only good for this time.
Thanks

Kinda brings my back to my original question though. A 115kw dyno tuned DC2 with my mods, is expected to run high 14's? I didn't think this was the case?
