| TechnoPower2 Kit installed.. CAN YOU SAY TORQUE! BOB W - Friday, 9 December, 2011, at 9:17:58 pm |
Pedro:
Just wanted to say WOW!!!.. MY 2001 Boxster S now has some "peel your cheeks off the back window",, torque!
The new TechnoPower2 Kit installed on my car makes me smile.. After I sold my 1990 911 C4 I have been looking to make the Boxster feel more like the old Air cooled 3.6 liter,, . This kit does the trick.
The TechnoPower2 Kit was fun to install , and pretty easy to do,, thanks for all of your help. I am proud to say my Car has the FIRST TechnoPower2 kit installed ...in the world...
The idle, throttle feel, response and drivability are great!! , I can't wait to get this car on the track as I am sure it will surprise a few from the Dark Side..!!
Thanks!!!

... dynos because they don't give you the whole picture.
I prefer accelerometer data because that data takes into account not just the engine, but also the tranny, friction, air resistance, weight, etc.
I will make the data available in graph format as soon as I can l.
Happy Boxstering

... when I do an accelerometer run I jot down all of those parameters:
Temperature
Humidity
Time of Day
Conditions
Additional weight or reduction of weight
When I do the next runs to be compared I wait until the same original conditions are present.
I don't take into account wind speed because I do 5 runs one way then I turn around and do 5 runs in the opposite direction (so the wind is averaged out automatically).
I then take the high and low results of each run and throw them out and finally the remaining 6 runs get averaged and compared with the original (also averaged) runs.
Happy Boxstering,
