I had my stock ECU reflashed to run Sprintex. I was expenting a little bit more but i ended up with 160kw at the wheels on my 4 speed auto up from 118 when the car was NA. I was just looking at some dynos here, few people got over 180kw with sprintex setup oh could that be perhaps varience between different dynos? supercharger is definately giving me proper boost, it start of about 4.5 psi frpm about 2500 rpms & full boost 7psi by about 3500.
Im guessing relatively small power at the wheels is due to laggy 4 speed? My car is going to my mechanic for manual conversion so it would be interesting to see KW differnece between the two.

My guess would be the 4spd holding you back, I probably would be expecting close 180kw atw when you do the manual conversion.

160kw at the wheels with the 4spd slushbox is pretty good, dynos have a large varience between so dont look to closely at that, but up from 118 is happy days.
mine made nearly 140 ATW with no engine internal mods whatsoever, but thats with the 5spd manual.
whats your exhaust system like? i hear that people were getting poor figues untill they got a full exhaust system with hiflow cat

^ What they said. Was that 118=160 on the same dyno?

Did you take those resonator things out of your quad cannons before the dyno?
160fwkw fairly normal for a 4sp. magna00 was making somewhere around that on his. Add another 10kw for manual

160kw with an auto magna, yea man that's pretty awesome. VRX's are about 129kwatw stock. How much was the flash?

Chisholm's Sprintex's Sports made 180kw even with a 5 speed manual, so 160kw out of an auto doesn't seem too bad.
There was a Qld'er with a Bullet SC with a 4 speed auto and his was around 160kw too (forget the username, was an aqua TJ).

118 -> 160 = 42kW gain.
42 / 118 * 100 = 35.59%. Happy days. :D

Yea i guess net % increase is pretty good.
Good point, i left my silencer in my canons when on dyno so it probably took a couple of kw. From above comments i can see what i got is quite normal so i guess im happy. Car has extarctors & 100 cell cat.
Tune cost me $850, what i really like is that no need for MAP sensor, factory MAF is more then capable on running much more boost then i am. tuner told me that ECU is very similar to EVOs & even has boost control capabilities BUT it would take too long to unlock & easier to use EVOs ECU in the first place. Its also possible to adjust your shift points for auto box.
