DC5R got Toda'd

[ginganggooly]

mphs and et is fine. there's no questioning that. more power, lighter chassis.

but it doesnt change the fact that a tuned dc5r makes less power
than a tuned eg k20 on the dyno..........right..

are you comparing jdm k20's to audm k20's?

[ginganggooly]

Thanx m8.. let me know how u went

Would their be a 'healthy' increase if I added an ecu? Adrian told me that unless I do cams its not worth getting an ecu with my current mods.. apparently I'm only guna get 5-8 kw more max..

However.. cams + ecu im lookin at 150 kw

adams egk20 ran a 13.9 with the stock ecu, and 12.7 after dave fiddled with the tune. with stock cams...
blows the cam theory out of the water hey

type_shane, are you ricky's brother?

[EL_DC5]

My Stock S did 124 at Bels

i didn't get a chance to dyno my car stock! although yeh from what i can see average is 105-110kw ALTHOUGH it really does matter where you get it dynoed..

i did mine on bels garage which i got 120kw atw with BC headers, cuistom cat, rm01a catback and gruppem intake

type_shane, are you ricky's brother?

Nope.. no idea who Rick is

[XP02ED]

all good, thought ur my mates brothers who just bought an R...

EL_dc5, i aint gna compare your results to mine, got a figure of before and after?

[z3lda]

are you comparing jdm k20's to audm k20's?

i assume most of the eg swaps are with jdm k20s therefore im comparing it with jdm dc5rs

i don't know of any local dc5's with jdm k20's to compare... but common sense should really kick in about now....

[EL_DC5]

Ahh Is the Engine a AU K20 from a R or From an S because the S has the JDM Type R CAms = more agressive cams,

adams egk20 ran a 13.9 with the stock ecu, and 12.7 after dave fiddled with the tune. with stock cams...

[XP02ED]

most EG swaps have aftermarket ECUs..

the dc5's you are comparing it too have standard bolt ons i/h/c with no ecu YET>. unlesss u can specify whos dc5 u comparing the outputs too?

theres some dc5R's whos hit 170kwatw.. from memory.. he posted it on all motors before.. although he did quite abit

[EL_DC5]

LOL Agreed

Well my DC5R had simple add-on I/H/E without any ecu or tuning so I'm sure it would make quite a bit more (20-25 kw) if I did

And I think ur talkin bout a JDM K20 (as noted by a few otha ppl)...
