I am wondering if anyone has access to a dyno who can test a van w/ a 1.9L motor. I would be interested to know what the van puts out with the performance tuning of 6 degrees before top dead center verses the anemic 85 hp that is produced at 5 degrees AFTER top dead center. My van seems to run so well, I would guess I am at around 100hp. I can cruise all day at 70-80 mph ( 4000-4600 rpm) with the temperature just below the middle of the gauge. Mileage is 17 mpg, but I am driving her pretty fast! Malibu Tony |
