for the longest time i thought i might have had a compression issue because of that kick at 5K RPMS. Although, happens for me at 5600 consistently.24DSXY1 wrote:I did some searching and found another n/a ka dyno with the same bump up in hp at 5k rpm and someone said it was cause there was no knock sensor on the motor so the ecu retards timing until 5k then return back to original timing, hence the little hp boost. He also said if the knock sensor was back on the motor it would have made more power. So did you remove your knock sensor too?
not to go off topic but how much does the the octane level affect performance levels on a 100% stock motor? JW if its worth it to buy the premium.Bigvinnie wrote:Those are good numbers for 94 octane.I made 162 whp on 95 octane and all emissions still intact, so your numbers aren't bad at all.
100% all stock motor with no ecu tuning, not much maybe a 1% gain using higher Octane.Marahutay wrote:not to go off topic but how much does the the octane level affect performance levels on a 100% stock motor? JW if its worth it to buy the premium.
