EVO IX - HKS 272 Dyno Numbers!!!
After weeks of anticipation - we finally dyno'd the IX RS with a HKS 272 exh cam. We also added a EcuTek flash. The results were rather impressive - although we didnt hit our lofty goal. But we came damn close!
TOPSPEED TUNING in GA
On the Dyno -
After just 10mins of tuning with the EcuTek software, we had gone from 274 torque to 334 torque! With no change in boost - only the EcuTek!! Thats a gain of 60lbs to the wheels! INSANE!!
Dyno Flash - 26psi - 100oct
We then added a couple gallons of race fuel to bump the octane up to 100 from 93. We also added 5psi of boost. A couple tweaks to the timing and fuel maps and we hit 380lbs of torque to the wheels!! Thats over a 100lbs gain from without the flash. Can you believe this? The IX is simply amazing.

Bone stock EVO IX v. EVO IX w/ Bolt Ons - No Flash
My car has a full 3" exhaust, intake, 272 exh cam and hard intercooler piping. These numbers are uncorrected, but you see that the torque difference isnt that much - but the horsepower is +30 with my bolt ons. No bad. Considering these mods were accomplished by spending only $700.After Dyno Flash - 21psi

EVO IX Bolt Ons v. EVO IX Flash 100oct
Here is the first pull overlayed with the 100oct pull. Although we didnt hit our goal of 400 wheel hp. We came pretty close. When the vendors come out with a MIVEC intake cam, 400hp can be broken - easily. Right now, this car is a rocket - low 12's/high 11's - with perfect driveablilty and stock turbo. All these mods are simple bolt ons. And we now have a 450hp EVO. NICE!Last edited by SmokinJoe; Jan 20, 2006 at 04:07 AM.

damn, I don't know why I look at all the evo9 dyno number threads that get posted, all it does is make me wish I waited a little longer before I got my good stuff man, nice numbers, shows how much potential the 9's have

Great numbers. I thought you said your goal was 400whp on pump gas, though, which is when we all said HELLLLLLLLLLL NO. Getting close on race gas is a much different story.
Now, considering you are putting down 380/380 on 100oct vs only 330/330 on 93 oct, that is amazing. What was the final boost on race gas and on pump gas? I only got up to 380wtq on 28psi, so I can't keep up with you, haha. I am only willing to do 26psi on a regular basis. Knowing how hard 340whp/360wtq is for me to control, I can't imagine your IX with 380/380 - oof!
One question, though...why did you switch to DIN on the final graphs? That made the numbers even higher than Uncorrected...

However, if 100oct were available wherever I lived, I would use it very often - at least a 50/50 mix on every tank - but there's nowhere to find it here. Now that I'm on alky, it doesn't matter, but 100oct can't be claimed pump gas, since it's not commonly available.

We have a few stations with 100 oct at the pump, but it's not consistent. When one of the local stations had thier site plan in for review I talked them into adding it
I think most consider 91/93 to be "pump"

I can go just as fast on 100oct as I can 110oct, so I buy the cheapest octane I can find when at the track.

well theres like three stations on the same hwy near hickory that sell 100 and as for tracks selling race gas, yes they do 110, 112, what ever you need but when i go top the track i have never seen them sell 100, must be a northern thing and then theirs plenty of stations that sell 100, sometimes you have to open your eyes a little more, kind of like their showing al in the meagan theard.

No, you're just lucky. It is EXTREMELY rare to find gas stations with 100oct. Just because you are lucky enough to have some near you doesn't mean it's normal elsewhere. For instance, there are 4 stations with 100oct in Denver, but there are 0 in the DC area.
Yes, many tracks sell 100oct, 104oct, 110, 112, 116, 118, C16, whatever. It has nothing to do with "opening our eyes." You can actually search and find the stations that sell it - they are listed, and believe me, I looked really hard around here, because I get a cool 30whp/30wtq right away on even a mix of 100/93. Still, as Jason also said, pump gas means 91-94 oct...
