What was cool was that it was above 200hp@wheels between 5900 and 8000.

Nice work Dave! I'll upload some videos/images tomorrow of a few runs (low battery meant I couldn't get everyone's on there).
I achieved a massive 20.1hp at the rear wheels which isn't too bad considering it only ever had 36hp at the flywheel, considering drive train losses and the fact who knows when the last rebuild was. The engine and gearbox will be for sale shortly so if anyone wants a champion little dyno tested engine - u2u me 馃槈
I haven't got any of the numbers on hand, but here are some images:

I don't think you can really even hear the almighty exhaust roar of the 20.1hp monster over the noise of the dyno! 15kw - what a handful!

What a great DAY !!!!!!! Thanks to all entries and sponsor's .
Think we had a good variety of cars and one trike for this years event.
The only downer was the lack of spectators on the day ,may becouse being on a Saturday ! Put this event on your calender for next year !
I have lots of dvd footage to share with everyone after abit of editing ,stay tuned .

Rod's run with the stinger on (another 3hp from memory)

Allan , cool vid ,but it made an extra 6 to 7 hp then hit rev limiter at 7400 .
check out weight bags in back of car ! wish that was me becouse the sound out side was well over 130 decibpls (thats as high the reader went ).
On his second run I forgot to take of his fan belt as well (next time )
Dyno owner and driver had great words to say and very big smiles on there faces after Rod's and Dave's runs .( 168hp ,218hp )
Just notice the VW Warwick advertisement as well in back window :thumb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep the noise was pretty phenomenal......as a sponsor of the event (Pacific Hearing) - perhaps next year I will have to more strongly advocate/encourage the use of ear plugs!
Hearing aids aren't cheap so don't think you'll look like a nancy boy for blocking your ears, or wearing plugs. Rant over 馃檪 Speaking of which, guess which Audiologist forgot his own custom earplugs? D'OH. The fingers in the ears had to suffice for me on this occasion!
Cheers again for a great day.

Definately wasn't as loud in the car!! Even though I had to perform some pretty full on bending and stretching to get around the roll cages!! Was awesome to sit in the back of both cars and lend my weight to stop some wheel spin on the rollers.
A lot less noise in there as well!!!!

This is the type of work Custom Exhaust Specialists can handle. (from mild to wild )
This is Troy Alders turbo and efi set up on show .Going in to a vw fastback for Warwick drags .I'd tryed to steel it of him for dyno day but exhaust hit on wheelie bar bracket.
When its finished mate ,you better keep it lock-up !馃檯
Corey was the guy walking around snapping pics all day at Dyno Mania. He has posted some shots from the day on his website. All up he took approx 170 pics!! A couple of these are blurry for a reason as they can be used as a background behind text.
Click on the arrow on the left hand side top of the page and then click on the VW section.
