133.9 hp NA Aveo now become 144.6 hp

Sometimes dynos (not just engine) read in bhp. What kind of dyno was this performed on?

[aveodude]

bhp does not equal whp. Normally the dyno converts it when it prints. At least that is the way it was in England when I was there.
And as far as power adders go, you are not getting any better than a nitrous setup. People will say turbo and nupercharger but $/hp, nothing is better than nitrous. And when people say, "well you have to refill so it cost more in the end", just remember that at $40 a fill for a 10lb bottle that will last around 20+ full races, you have plenty of fills before you reach the price of a turbo/supercharger

not to go too far off topic here but remus mufflers are nice. i must request a vid of the sound. and yes, upgrade ur exhaust pipe size. what was the camshaft sensor mod?

[xiaogary]

I am sorry for he confusion. I know nothing abt bhp or whp. I only ask whether its on wheel or on engine bhp. The dyno guy told me its on the wheel. The dyno is a floor drum roller type. Yes, there is another graph which shows 161bhp peak. But I never print that as the dyno guy says its estimated/calculated figures by the dyno machine on the engine, so not accurate.

The original crank shaft has a stroke of 73.4mm. The sensor for crankshaft looks is the teeth like feature on the crankshaft as shown in the picture.



The 81.5mm stroke crankshaft I bought off ebay is without the crankshaft's teeth-liked feature. Had to modify the crankshaft in order to fit in the teeth-like features in for the sensor to sense the rotation position.

These are my pistons. Custom made 11.1:1 compression ratio. I don't think they can be turbo charged right?

NOS is interesting. Has anyone in the world installed NOS in Aveo before? Is it risky?

rotrex that biotch

[mikedudley17]

all vehicle mods come with a risk. some more than others. nos if u used correctly can be a good mod but still has risks. hell a simple cai can destroy a motor.

To high of a compression to get decent numbers. he could maybe push 4-6 lbs before something gave out.

Non is a brand, there are many other nitrous kits out there. Nitrous is safe when used correctly. just get quality parts and set it up safely.
Plus think of it this way. You spent almost 4-5 grand between all the parts you bought to get 40whp. Same thing could have been had with a $600 nitrous kit.

i forgot what car we were talking about...there arent really much tuning options to be able to be running boost with that high compression

[xiaogary]

This is an original piston for a 1.6 aveo. Compared to the one I had. I doubt mine is high compression. I expected 11.1:1 compression ratio piston to be dome shape. End up, its flat with valve cutting. Does it look like high compression piston?




How to check the compression ratio I had. If its not that high, I might add a Turbo charger for some boost. Since the internals are already forged. Or worst case, I might change the pistons to a new set of forged low compression if I intend to keep this car for long.
