I now have a before and after set of dyno sheets for the Sportivo recall changes.

I have graphs for:

old computer with old (long) airbox/trumpet
new computer with new airbox/trumpet
new computer with old (long) airbox/trunpet
new computer with new airbox/trumpet and airbox feed removed

All graphs are a direct comparsion same dyno/same fuel/cool down to same temp between changes/average of few runs. Most were on the same day in the same session. I have thirteen in total, but the four above are the most significant.

The facts are:

The car is very obviously louder with old airbox /trumpet.

The new computer gives much improved mid range and AFR is consistenly better with the new computer. Many have expected just a boost in the "lift" section of the curve, that only the peak would increase, but that is not the case.

The air feed to the airbox is a significant restiction, possibly great than the airbox itself. (proved on the dyno - but bloody obvious if you have eyeballs) This is possibly where cheap power gains could be made. Properly built CAI's obviously have excellent potential.

Comparison between dyno graphs I've done (by both myself and the operator), and a number other stock cars on the same dyno make Toyota's claim of 141kw AT THE ENGINE realistic.

I also have photos of all changed parts and part numbers for all of them.

I ask one request:

Before all the dreamers post anything to this thread, I ask that you re-read your post and check to see if it's factual (or based somewhere thereon in). If people will become stupider by simply reading your post, don't post it.

I have spent substantial time trying to provide this as real info (as I know alot of posters do) - I'd preffer it was not splashed with a perpetuation of misinformation.
