A&Q about 350Z
Q:
ok, i've got it matching your numbers.
now the only issue is correcting for VE, (TE too?), possibly friction and the AF ratio as well.
basicly the torque is a straight line across the graph...
A:
Sorry about the late response, it is crazy week for me.
Well to find the actual vales of VE and the AF ratio (more specifically the “fuel map”) at different conditions is going to very difficult. I did some quick searching on the internet and could not dig anything up for a Dodge Neon. However, I am sure there is information out there you can use if you take the time to find it, but this is not information that is made readily available.
You should try posting on different dedicated Neon forums or maybe try some aftermarket vendors. If that doesn’t work try to find information on a similar engine, i.e a naturally aspirated 2.0L inline 4 cylinder.
Good luck
A:
so basicly doing it for something that will work for all cars (kinda my goal, i was just using the neon as an example, as i found a chart that gave it's hp/tq at intervals of rpm's)
A:
Well i suppose this will work for NA engines, your neon srt will definitely not yield the same numbers
A:
well i can say one thing from the engines ive selected components for and assembled... engines are like kids, they may look normal enough, but you never know how they are gonna turn out
A:
i've got to say... with the complete linerization that i have now, and the fact that i'd have to figure out some way to mimic efficiency to move ANY further, and that i've done all that i originally set out to do, i'm probably done with this project for now.
thanks for all the help though.
