Wow Tom, your old SVX is on eBay.....

Wow Tom, it looks very much like your former SVX to me...

It's on eBay now? Are you gonna buy her back?

Anyway, you can verify this...based on the specs and everything,
it just makes me think it is your old SVX.

yuppers thats mine!! That SOB dynoed it and didn't tell me. 191 AWHP baby, that is sick because he doesn't have the ECUtune stage 2 either. I cannot wait to get my new cams now. Maybe now that he is selling it, I can get the money he still owes me back

I just saw that auction on Ebay as well and realized it was Tom's when I saw the rear quarter panel dent, the painted intake manifold and the Konis. He does have an SAFC-II installed in the car which was obviously tuned pretty well.

Here's the dyno plot which I've saved to my locker (so it's not lost when the auction ends):



It looks like the rpm scale (which is partially hidden) runs from 2,000rpms to 7,000rpms, showing a peak power being reached at a hair below 6,000rpms. It also looks like the SAFC-II needs better tuning around that region in the rpm band...

funny, it echos like mine... black, 5speed, rotors, with ugly right front and rear corners... I want koni and those wheels. I was going to get drop springs, but after seeing this I think I want GC too!

Looks like there are two dyno runs on the plot. What's the difference between the two?

I'm thinking before vs after dyno tune using the SAFC-II.

191.74whp assuming a 25% drivetrain loss (5spd awd) = 255.6hp at the crank

Not to shabby at all. With a good driver and traction, he could probably get that thing down into the low 14's.

-Chike

P.S. It'll be interesting to see how the dyno numbers might have differed if he had used the Stage 2v5 from LAN...

yeah kinda funny how he takes credit for all the upgrades Tom did.

on the dyno plot - how many other 5 speeds have been dynoed and how much of that gain is from going auto to manual?

Phil (PhastSVX) dyno'd his 5spd SVX right before starting the turbo install. I think he made around 184-185whp. His car had the stage 2 software but didn't have the cams. Tom's old car has cams, but an SAFC-II instead of the stage 2.
