Chris, can you give them a different email address to try - like a hotmail or gmail?
I'd volunteer mine if you don't have another one to use. We want those plots!

Here's a teaser... I don't remember which run this is because the shop sent it as a "test email"... I think this is the first one right after doing the ecutune swap... not sure though...

I hope that's your first baseline run, because assuming 25% drivetrain loss, 184 WHP translates to 230 BHP...which is a stock SVX rating.

an AWD car has more like 30% loss

It seems that most power estimates figure 25% loss for 5mt and 30% loss for 4EAT, if I remember correctly.

Taking this as a "given", then it looks like Chris' car has ~252 hp at the crank. Kinda makes you believe that 275-300 NA Hp at the crank isn't unrealistic -Bill

Chris, Bill, do these numbers sound reasonable?
Stock 4EAT SVX, 30% loss: 70% of 230 equals 161 stock hp Stock 5MT SVX, 27% loss: 73% of 230 equals 168 5mt hp Stock 5MT with stebro dyno baseline: 175 hp S1V5 5MT with stebro dyno result: 183 hp So, 5mt adds 7 hp to the wheels, Stebro adds 7 hp, and S1V5 programming adds another 8hp. Solid gains totalling a significant 22hp Sound reasonable?

I went over to SOuthern States Subaru just about an hour ago to get my new Strut Top Hats. While there picking them up I ran into the Head Service Tech, a guy named Quincy. He has worked for Subaru longer than most college students have been alive (but not me cause I'm old ) and he actually owns an SVX. We got talking about my suspension noise (he thinks that it is my endlinks bill, waiting to hear about yours) and that eventually turned into talk about the ECUTune Stage 1 that I just did... That's when he sprung the suprise of the century on me when he said, "You know the origional prototype SVX had 309hp right?"... WHAT?!?! He said that he was there when they brought the prototype over to the states for testing in the north and after testing it they decided to "detune it" because american drivers would hurt themselves and try to sue... I thought this was a little stupid, but when you think about it it kinda makes sense... Subaru didn't put a 5 MT in the SVX because they didn't have a manual that could handle the power reliably. Now the 5 MT in the WRX is essentially the same gearbox that they had back then. But it's limit of power and torque are rumored to be right around 300hp. Hmmm, that causes an eyebrow to raise alittle... Then when you think that we DON'T get the Spec. C over here. And all the other engines that are detuned, it starts to make alittle sense... Quincy said that he remembers the parts that they swapped out to take the EG33 from 309hp to 230hp... They swapped the O2 sensors, the fuel injectors and remapped the ECU... I asked him how hard would it be to get the engine up to it's original 309hp figure? He said, get some good wide band O2 sensors, get some larger injectors and have the ECU reprogramed... So if someone is good with ECU programming, we are essentially sitting on an engine with great potential. Maybe that's one reason why the engine is just so damn bullet proof today. It's only producing about 2/3 the power that it was originally designed to produce... Anyone else buy into this?? Like I said, I believe quincy because he's worked for Subaru forever, he owns an SVX and he was there when the prototype SVX came to the states... Learn something new every day huh Quote:

I beleive he is correct, when we flow tested the heads off a SVX on a test bench they were coming up with high flow number simlar to a lot of expensives high performance cars. If they had of released it with that much power there was no Auto transmission around that could of stood the power at the time.
