civickiller & Civicspoon, civicfreak1 mentioned in a pervious thread he lives in Pakistan. I fully trust him when he says there really are no dyno's around. He mentioned above that the UAE had a dyno, but look at map, that's quite far. Importing his car to a forgein country would indeed be very expensive. If you look at a map, the closest route to the UAE is via boat, and sending a car via boat is not cheap and takes a long while. If he chose to trailer it there like was suggested above it very well could mean driving through Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia to get to the UAE. That's quiet a distance. True, a dyno is the best way, but a dyno there seems to be too far for him to get to, just like he has been saying. I am sure if the dyno was closer he's find a way to get there. A trailer trip through @ least 3 countries to reach a dyno don't seem like plausable idea.
The reason I suggested the G-tech wasn't to tune the car. It was to give him an approx peak hp output reading. As we know, no dyno not only affects the tuning, but he won't know his peak hp level. The G-tech comp would work fine for that. At least he'll know an approx peak hp with the G-tech. It would give him an idea of where it stands if nothing else. BTW, Civicspoon, that toulene/octane link you provided was an intersting read.

Re: Race Gas / NOS
Oh he's in Pakistan? Why the hell does his profile say Canada? Guess I can understand why he doesn't have a dyno anywhere near him then I was thinking to myself "he's in Canada and no place near him has a dyno, wtf?"
Glad you like the link, I also thought it was a pretty interesting read. |

hey eckoman didnt i mention in my last post in this thread that i realized hes in a different country, end of page 2 in case you didnt read and pay attention. what feel big and you need to point out things that i already mentioned.
g tech is good if you want to know your peak hp but thats it, if there are alot of other racers in the area, you might want to think about setting up a dyno, first dyno in the area could make alot of money |

It's not big, I brought up he's in Pakistan because no one seemed to realize this. In every thread this guy posts, I see someone saying " go heard or order this." Being so far away is most likly one reason he is trying to ask and learn things. There likely arn't many options in Pakistan, so he is left doign a lot of it himself. Please do not falsly accuse others and then insult them by saying "disappoinin." Whether this was an honest miscomunication or an attempt to save face, it is uncalled for. Now lefts drop all this and get back to helping civicfreak1 with his questions. We are all here to help other members, not to bicker and argue.

Re: Race Gas / NOS
hi ppl back agian .,,,,
with the same thread... same question i am getting low-led 100 octance gasoline... and i am planning on adding 30% toulene to it.. do u think ... this will work fine ... i think it'll give me around 106 to 108 octance somewhere/// should i add something else to it ... like the transmission fluid and a little bit of diesel... also..... should i disable the knock sensor while doing the management or.... should i leave it there to retire the timing in case of detonation ??? |

Re: Race Gas / NOS
since you dont have a dyno to tune on. go buy a knock monitering device like j&s so that way you can monitor knock. the stock knock is good but you cant monitor it.
thats about the best way you can tune timing without a dyno, keep advancing till you start knocking then retard a few degrees. |

Re: Race Gas / NOS
i wouldnt run anything but ngks in my car. not knocking champions because they are good spark plugs too, i just rather run ngks
and privateandrew, i doubt htey made a huge difference, unless the spark plugs you took out were so badly gone already. i think it was all in your head |

Re: Race Gas / NOS
I agree in some applications champions dont run very well but in nitrous applications they have seemed to do well.
Personally I run denso/ngk but champions have had good results with nitrous.
