So did the dyno runs take place last weekend in the Philippines? Any interesting results with different nozzle placement?

Yes we did 3 vehicles but 3 were automatics and with the extra power were up shifting so we could not get a read on the lower rpms.

The Toyota Fortuner which has the same D4D 3.0 Turbo diesel as the Hilux we did was the only one to use the dual nozzle set up but has full time 4 wheel drive so we could not dyno it, Plus he had extra mods like a front mount and Unichip, But lets just say he could burn the tires around the corner even in 4 wheel drive.

The Hilux picked up 25hp across the board using a 2gph nozzle and isoproply alcohol, Switch to a 4gph and 50/50 methanol and it shot up to 70hp and more than 100lbs of tq more if you look at the chart progression. We could not actually get a read on the lower rpms but at 3000rps it was making 56hp more hp and I believe 80+lbs of TQ more. The Kia Sorento had the triptronic tranny and it could not be dyno tested due to the vehicles self protection it would force a shift even in the manual selected mod. On the streets with 4 people in the vehicle myself included it was ripping the tires loose on the 2nd gear shift with the AC on full so I would say his increase was around 50hp or so, We ran that one on 90 proof Gin

We also did a Landcruiser, also full time 4 wheel drive, 3gph nozzle 50/50 mix, If you no what there intakes look like it sits right over the dang turbo and gets extreamly hot, It was a beast on the streets to drive. The owner said he thought we put nitrous on his rig.

I'll have alot more coming soon as more of the vehicles get the kits installed.

The Hilux dyno
Base, 2gph rubbing alcohol, vs 50/50 methanol, Like I said the power was to much for the tranny to hold in 2nd gear so it would up shift. The only problem with the Hilux it was overfueling in the top end and could really use the Progressive Controller. But the low end power was so strong the owner did not want to change down to a 3gph nozzle which would still have given a easy 60hp gain in the lower ranges as well. This thing could smoke the tires with ease after the install.
