CA20E DYNO!!!!

dyno'd the ca20 out of pure laughter and enjoyment today. threw down some power.

*we could find anywhere to put two straps, so we just had 3 people hang on the end :grinwink:

(cant figure out how to embed video, so heres the link to the fail)

result
68 whp
81 wtq.

power curve went flat after 4200 rpm!

this is with no airfilter, pacesetter headers, and full exhaust :laugh: ca20e is teh failz!

epic win., it easily won lowest hp throphy

the beast with its trophy :yes:


feel free to bash the ca20!

lol you sold brandon a turbo? his car ate like 10 turbos that weekend!

yeah I sold him the last one he used lol

Wow! lol... this is pure epicness, can't say i havn't been curious to see this lol

Lol, wow. I wonder what mr. 200rwhp ca20 thinks of this :P

wow, i made 93 rwhp and 103 tq

and there was another member Klox i believe that made like 101hp don't remember the tq numbers tho....

All I'm going to do is smile

:D

Lol, wow. I wonder what mr. 200rwhp ca20 thinks of this :P

i think it was na actually...he said he knew some super secret awesome engine building tricks...and then kept bragging about beating on kids in brostangs...whateverz.

yup, tis why i said non-turbo :P  i had enough acronyms in there already :P

i ignored the non part...idk why...

Any chance you'd let the header go?

lol, and mine sure feels more than that...on dyno day i should take it and dyno it...

I made 68.7 horspower and 85 lb/ft of torque with nothing but a K&N filter and my lovely Auto trans. lol

since it's na you should advance the timing a bit and dyno again.....

lol why bother?

Lol the Timing was advanced. Like 22 degrees. I'm also at like 5500ft altitude. But then again, the ca20 just straight up fails.

oh damn lol

lol thats funny

ahahhah this thread is full of fail. that motor was full of fail. it finally shot a spark plug out like 3 months ago. the car is ka powered now.

damn even with it tweaked for power AND the pacesetters it did that bad... wow.  we have to assume it was cuz of the altitude.  just so we dont break the poor ca20s heart, it was cuz of the altitude *wink

5500ft altitude

hp loss = (elevation x 0.03 x hp @ sea level)/1000

5500 x 0.03 x 68 / 1000
11220 / 1000
11.22.

So the motor is losing 11.22 horsepower at that altitude. So it has about 79.22 Horses. Fucking beast.

lul.

I have one of those boat anchors in my garage awaiting rebuild.

Ca20's definetly have no power. I could probably transplant my riding lawnmower engine for more power...

72whp and 84wtq

after that dyno i adding timing. that didnt do enough to notice but header added bottom end that made a big difference in drifting. the car can drift its own weight now without constant clutch kicking

ca20 ftl lol

Pacesetter use to make one for the CA20, but it's long been discontinued.

This thread is so discouraging for CA owners lol I think I'm in the market for a KA now lol especially going from driving a Z32 everyday to a CA powered S12 don't get me wrong still love S12s till the death of me but my last S12 was KA powered and that motha Fuka was boss lol
