Has anyone out there had their GU TD42 wagon (naturally aspirated) dyno'd before? I have seen heaps of rear wheel specs for the turbo'd ones but interested in the ones less a hairdryer. If there is anyone out there who has done this tell me whether the exhaust had been modified etc

Thanks i just had mine Dyno'd and it was 46 kw then i opened the fuel screw and now it is 50.4. A mate dyno'd his gq tray back which started at 49 kw and now he has 62 kw (na). Big difference hey. Another mate turbo'd GU no intercooler got 100 kw at rear wheels.

Des,
Worth noting too that results will/can vary between dyno and dyno (ie: no 2 are the same) and also, you can get different results for the same vehicle using the same dyno on different days, or even at different times on the same day!!!
It's all about atmospheric conditions (ie: air pressure) and other variable stuff that none of us has any hope of controlling.
So, don't worry yourself too much about dyno results....they are an indication at best and don't always mean that much in the real world when your trying to climb a steep, shaly, wet grade etc....haha
Cheers
Roachie

Roachie,
We dyno tractors everyday and allow for ambient temps, humidity, Barometric pressure/altitude, air intake speed etc etc when we come to our results and that is how this this Dyno operator works as
well.

Hmmm,
always thought my dyno figures were suspect!
However from two years ago when I had my turbo fitted on my TD42 they were 77Kw before and 121 after......
All I do know for a fact is that the old girl now goes like a rocket, AND gets better fuel economy.
