AP Datalogs

Postby Originalguy » Mon May 02, 2011 9:14

so i got my ap recently and i married it to my car. i loaded the stock map on it cause i have my standback still plugged in and my tune is on that but i was doing some datalogging and i love that dyno feature. granted it isnt very accurate but these numbers are awesome with my car set at 3999 pounds and running from 3k to 6200 rpm in 4th gear

I've always wanted to try that on my AP, but never have. Where did you get the weight figure, out of curiousity?

When I had the AP on my RX-8 I could do back to back "dyno" runs with the same weight entered, same rpm pull, same everything is get variations of up to 250whp. It's a gimmick.

The best "performance metering" of the AP is the 0-60mph and 1/4 mile meters because it's a set and forget type of feature, no messing around, just come to a stop and launch and it lets you know how fast you are. Pretty nice features, I used it to compare my 0-60mph times when my RX-8 was NA and then turbo.

yeah i know its a fun toy but there are too many variables like i turned my weight up to like 4800lb then went down a steep hill at full throttle and it showed like 721hp i was like wow so i guess everything has to be just right for it to read remotely accurate. and i figured if the ms6 has a curb weight of about 3600lb (iirc) plus my 160ish plus my two twelve inch subs and box plus the two rotors and rotor housing plates i had from an old 13b in the trunk i figured 4000 was a reasonable guess
