77 Horsepower!

[xsivspd]

Magnusmotorsports.com has....
the Mazdaspeed and just returned from the dynometer in Scarborough Ontario last night to record:
1st run: 203 WHP fuel-cut gallore,
2nd run: 223 WHP,
3rd run: 221 WHP.

In this months modified magazine, MSP has a baseline of 146 hp and 151 ft/lbs of tq.

That is a gain over stock WHEEL horsepower shown by:
77 horsepower.

Modifications completed:
Magnusmotorsports.com: 3 inch turboback exhaust
OSOFastracing.com: MBC set to 9 PSI
K&N: custom elbow and cone filter

The impact of additional flow courtesy of the exhaust was considerable. All that is needed to complete the package is a FMIC.
I will post the graph of the dyno once I have it scanned.
The numbers speak for themselves, I do not.

wow...thats some pretty good gains outta the msp...I am surprised myself

 

[perfworks]

good job now imagine what you can do with a piggy back!

 

[tekkie]

jesus christ thats nuts, thanks for the info, now I know what my next mod will be

And this is with T25 turbo unmodified?

I have to be honest here in that I smell total bulls***!

Terry, running an MP3 with a full 3" exhuast, no cats, links management system, and a G16 turbo, not a tiny T25 was barely running that at 8 PSI!

Thank you F*&king THANK YOU!!!

You mean you *didn't* have a CAI on the car?? WOW- IMAGINE THE POWER THEN!!!!!

I try to tell you guys over and over.... There are your damn dyno numbers....

I admit that it sounds outrageous but I will be happy if I get half of that

1st run: 203 WHP fuel-cut gallore,
2nd run: 223 WHP,
3rd run: 221 WHP.

what do you mean here? did you not get fuel cut on the other runs or did they do something to get around it?

 

[Ryan]

no s***, give me link to that turbo back, its mine next payperiod hehe

 

[YP5 Toronto]

Just to give you guys some info....Magnus Motorsports is extremely well respected in the racing world. they are worlds fastest 2G AWD Eagle Talon and are not bull $hitters..

how in the f@ckin hell can an exhaust, 2 psi & an intake aid 77 whp. I gotta see the dyno sheet for this one. If this is true i know what im buyin next!!!

 

[1sty]

Not saying its BS just being sceptical!

 

[RuggedMazda]

The numbers sound great...
Is there a dyno sheet you can scan or something
just to totally confirm for us??
Not saying this is bulls*** or anything really,
I just would love to see the dyno sheet
so that I can do all that's in my power to
come up with the money for this...
Thanks & again don't take it the wrong way....

2psi? I know my car was only 5 stock so that is a 4 psi increase.. 4 PSI= anywhere from 32-40 HP *usually* plus the exhaust and K&N adding more air to a pig rich fuel mixture. What part of this is not believable? Magnus does not bulls***..

[03Speed]

sorry dont know why i typed 2, my cars holding 5 psi too. Its just hard to believe that these little modifications added 77 hp. Im sure that mangus doesnt bulls***, i just want to see a dyno sheet.

2nd run: 223 WHP,

Why was there fuel cut on your first run? What did you do to fix it on runs 2 and 3?

Modifications completed:
Magnusmotorsports.com: 3 inch turboback exhaust
OSOFastracing.com: MBC set to 9 PSI
K&N: custom elbow and cone filter

So they are claiming that an INTAKE, EXHAUST and TWO measely extra psi netted 77 additional HP?? I hate to have to sound like a tool, but it does sound a little fishy. The 2 psi may be good for another 15whp or so. Hell, let's even say 20whp for grins. A 3" exhaust may get you another 15whp on that car if you ditch the cats. Intake has show around a 15whp gain, but that varies on the intake. So 15+15+20=50whp. And even 50whp sounds a tad generous...but no biggie. Either way, 50whp is a far cry from 77whp. 27whp difference. Sounds like maybe their dyno is a little out of tune. Why didn't they do a baseline before the mods on their own dyno?

The impact of additional flow courtesy of the exhaust was considerable. All that is needed to complete the package is a FMIC.

While the numbers sound nice, I'm a bit skeptical. As nice as it would be for those #'s to be true, I kinda doubt they are. Not saying that the dyno didn't spit out those #'s, but the dyno may be off. Are these numbers "corrected" dyno numbers?

 

[kwiktsi]

Oh boy here we go...... xsiv- contact me off the board and we can go over some things. Congrats on the numbers, but I don't believe them- maybe 2 whp, you know cuz that's what my boyez Honduh got with the same mods and VTech is as good as a turbo ..

[tekkie]

lol @ Joe

 

[Ryan]

god guys dont you know, there are craploads of things u can do to get exta horsepower, like sticking ur hand out the window will give you 15whp cuz of the downforce and, pulling ur mirrors in will be more areodynamic and having stickers on your car will give you that exta 25 whp. and if your really cool and have window tint thats another 50whp my car is popping trannies left and right so i cant hang my arm out the window no more ;(

 

[SuperSpud]

whoa whoa whoa whoa.. first,, the K&N cone filter will give you about 5 whp max (according to this months modified mag)... bumping psi to 9,,, a good 20'ish whp.. turbo back,, no clue.. I dont know how restrictive the stock DP and exhaust is...

MAYBE that was crank HP... that would be a little more believable... but still sounds like to much to me...
