King Tut's FA20Club.com Dyno Tuning Experience

Thanks:

I really want to thank these guys. Without their help, who knows where I would be with my turbo charged BRZ.

LJ @FullBlown Motorsports for building such a damn good turbo kit. He has always been there to answer my questions, and still well after the sale contacts me to see how the turbo kit is running.

Toni @FA20Club.com for finding the time in his busy schedule to dyno tune my car. He already wanted datalogs from the car before it was even off the dyno, and I know his support will continue to be there in the future.

David @Sportsguy83 for setting up the dyno tuning with Toni and hosting me in his house for the weekend. I also need to thank his wife for the great food.

FA20CLUB Turbo Kit 10 PSI Preliminary Testing

Long day at FA20Club all around got to throw the turbo FRS on the dyno to test our new base tune we finalized this week and decided to crank it up a notch and see how she liked it. Car runs even better on the new base tune than before and bumped up power on same 5psi level. When i ran her up to 10 psi we got 337hp 255tq. This was no timing changes mainly just the improved cam phasing and a few other things to make drivability better on the current kit. Next week we will complete the test with E85 on the same boost level and see what we get before we push it a little more. sorry just a crappy cell shot the dyno printer was dead. ill be back next week anyway so you guys get a sneak peek for now.

FA20CLUB: GOOD REASON TO REMOVE YOUR TURBO KIT RIGHT AWAY....

We at FA20Club wanted to share with your why our shop car is now without our turbo kit. When an opportunity arises sometime you have to make moves you don't want to. It was a sad day a couple weeks ago when I was forced at gun point j/k but Phil @ElementTuning (Hydra EMS) needed some help in a short time frame, due to the over whelming orders we had for our turbo kits FA20Club wasn't able to get him a kit in time due in part by his short deadline. We at FA20Club still wanted to help him out so as option FA20Club  offered to pull the kit from our personal shop car for him to meet his races. Since he asked up less than 2 weeks for a kit and transit time considered it felt it was a more favorable option than delaying our retail customers. Well the next business day we removed the FA20Club 60 trim turbo kit packed it up and it shipped it our for Phil at Element Tuning. With little over a week to go and installation tuning and building the rest of the car still to be done we all crossed our fingers. They made it and DAMN did they impress taking the win in the unlimited Class without hitting the dyno. The turbo screams and its the 60 trim you can hear the gate responding quite frequently to throttle input in the video. Please enjoy some of the photos and video by Element Tuning.

ECUTEK BRZ & FR-S Reflash Dyno Results Are In

Incredible........Thats what most are saying the improvements have been with the docile FA20 engine with a quick reflash. We had the opportunity to start a R&D program for this platform and have yet to be disappointed as far as gains and progression are concerned. We started with our own AT FR-S and have since then moved into the Manual version. the gains are still on par with our experience on the AT.

The FR-S, BRZ twins with simple bolt ons we were able to see an immense gain throughout the entire powerband. I can only say so much but the numbers don't lie...check out the chart. If you have any question give us a call or shoot us an email.

ECUTEK Software on board....

After making the final decision to join the ECUTEK team were were extremely excited to get down and dirty tuning the FA20. From common results we had seen up to this point we say some easy improvements After making a few baseline runs it was obvious where these gains were to be had. What were observed was an engine that runs extremely rich @WOT. At redline the AFR was actually 11.2:1 on our baseline runsl never exceeding 12.3:1. So first thing to be done was to remove some of the excess fuel under heavy load.



The powerband easily jumped up after tweaking the fuel table a bit. That was the easy part though. Now it was time to get down to the finer aspects of refining our tune. The major issue with this car is that nasty dip heading into 4k rpm and exiting. After looking intot he cam angle tables there were some variances that made this more dramatic than it had to be not to mention the injector phasing between the direct and the port around the same rpm range.

We look forward to working on the Scion FRS, Subaru BRZ, and Toyota GT86. After about 6 hours testing and teaking we had come up with a satisfactory tune for the A/T transmission FA20, Onto the manual......
