My DCI65 dyno (diesel haters beware)

[vincent]

Well I have a 1.5dci that was once a 65bhp tractor, it still is a tractor but it has come a long way, so i tought I'd put the dyno results on here.
all power displayed is power measured at the wheels unless stated otherwise.

what do you all think?

Cheers!

Nice efforts! Wish the trophy had that much torque! lol

:bump:

 

[Tigger]

Go on the dci

Why diesel haters beware? It doesnt stop them being rubbish to drive, lol

Amen.

I should get mine rolling roaded - 'strong' custom re-map & K&N

I'm guessing 110bhp (from 86) and at least 170lb/ft (220NM) with only 980kg to shift

I'd definately go for a remap that gives more torque than BHP if I were you, torque is king:lolup:

 

[Ulle]

Oh my god! :quiet:

I hope that you have replaced the gearbox! For a DCI 65 the gearbox is not made to handle more than 200 Nm at max.

 

[black kro]

gearbox OK - clutch goes first :-(

Your point being? My hybrid is 185 bhp, over 150 lbft and weighs 880ks...AND both the power and tourque hold on for most of the rev range, unlike a diesel which has come and gone like a virgin on prom night :rasp:

LOL dieseeesels rev to about 5.5k max, therefore you have to change gear every 2 seconds.

Not many infact any from memory rev to 5.5k then again they pull from under 2k so the power band makes the 172 look rubish reay.

Yeah they do, governer is set at 5.5k in loads of cars. 5k for most normal diesels (306 DTurbo for example).

Pulling from under 2k is really useful, the only time my car is revving below 2k is on idle lol.

 

[RichMcc]

haha fair play!

What has a 5.5 k red limiter then?

Red limiter? Do you mean red line, or govenor?

The govenor is set at 5.5k in our works Audi. Either that our the gauge is out lol.

Govener.

Unusal that what exact spec is it never looked into them to much often 5k is the best they let them rev to Most limit at 4.5k.

It's an A4 estate, S-Line it has on the back. God knows what engine it has though, they do loads I think from 1.9 to 3.2??

 

[Clio_Princess]

Mine is a 1.5DCI and i love her :rasp: :rasp:

 

[al]

I'd swap my site 1.2 16v engine for a DCi80 ANY day!!!

(wouldn't swap the rest of the car tho )

 

[Ali]

M'on the oilburners!

 

[Tigger]

What exactly does the governor do?
I get the "oil, stop & serv" lights flashing sometimes when overtaking (flooring it) :S

Just stops you reving any higher no warning lights should come on at all.

Sounds liek you need to get the fault checked out might be a oil pressure sensor or level warning.

 

[manji]

Could be the "safe mode" too. That usually happens when the boost goes to the "limiter" 1.2bar on dci80's.

Cheers!

Still getting this (at 3500 revs) and my 36k service is due.
Anything in particular to get checked out?

 

[kiza1986]

You checked the oil tigger?? Might sound stupid i know lol

 

[Tigger]

I'll check it tomorrow mate

Don't really know much about the mechanical end of engines so I'm a bit worried :S

 

[kiza1986]

Sounds stupid but perhaps the oil is a bit low??

 

[Dan@SJM]

what mods have been done to get those sort of results?

To get 100hp at the wheels you'd need the bigger injectros form the 80 a serious custom remap and a suitable intercooler. also things like k and n etc wll help. WIll be a bit smokly though.

love my dci 86
