Post up your RENNTech numbers

Hi all. Can I get everyone to comment on their stage one dynos? I don't care about crank "corrected" numbers, I wanna see pre and post numbers to the rear.
I was thinking I would be at around 420 stock and 450 post RENNTech 1. Is that realistic?

I think 2 are done. Mine goes in this week. When are you going in? I'm hoping they can post some numbers soon.

On a sdie note, does anyone know if it is possible to get the info as an e-file so we can put it into excel and do comparisons between cars and pre post?

should be good. did not badge rear-lid, but did badge side-strip on front wheel-well below V8/K...you should be getting rear badge and two side strip badges w/ kit; can do plate frame too-easy removal also etc. also, keep all orig. pulley/belts etc. have fun-you'll enjoy it.

Any interest in ASP numbers?

Dyno jet pre pulley 399hp and 448tq
Dyno jet post pulley 468hp and 548tq

That's +69hp and +90tq
(Oh, and the I/C pump was also replaced in between - that must count for something)

Wow - Those #'s are strong! Question: does a Renntech car put out more power than Kleeman car? Does a k1 car put down those #'s at the wheels?

Very Impressive! Is this a Stage 1 car as well? Does ASP have stages or just 1 kit?

What the cost on this setup without the IC's? If the price is right, this seems like a great kit!

Kleeman is terrific too, though not sure of K-1 #'s, but there are more than a few RT-1 55's running 11.6-11.8 & 120-121 trap @ 1/4.

ASP only makes pulleys. They're a bit larger than Renn or Klee pulleys. Installed for 1,200.

Probably a bit more risky too, when you're spinning the engine that much faster .. maybe I'm wrong.

I think there's a rumor that RennTECH is coming out with a bigger pulley.

Yes, Renntech is coming out with a bigger pulley, with special water pump pulley and special belt.

The bigger RENNTech is no rumor. The release date is not known (by the public). I will be upgrading mine when it comes out. RennTech offers it as a free upgrade right now, if you get the IC upgrade as well, so no need to hold off on the Stage 1 or to go with another tuner.

As far as gains between RennTech / ASP / K / and even EVO pulleys and ECU upgrades, I'd say that most RennTech customers (myself included) look at more than just straight performance numbers and price. This is my car as well, so how well the products are developed and backed by warranty is a huge deal to me. If you care about either of those, then it falls to RennTech hands down. You pay not to be a guinea pig. Simple as that. There are no kinks to work out.

Add to that the fact that they are coming out with a bigger pulley and even more mods to come for the E55 and I am stoked!!

Renntech will not be offering the new bigger pulley for free with any IC pump upgrade.

Sorry jangy, whoever told you this is a blatant lie.

Well,

I talked to Renntech last week. None of the management team ever mentioned that to any dealers. The pulley is more expensive to make with new special water pump pulley and special belt. There will be arrangements for existing clients that want the bigger pulley, but it is not free upgrade.

I'll second Jangy's comments on the quality of the Renntech product. I recently did stage 1 on my CL600 and picked-up 126 RWHP with just an ECU tune. Thanks again to Adam@Eurolites for the mod.

Here is a dyno chart of that run:

Thanks for the info, Adam. Do you have any idea what kind of difference they are thinking? You may also want to get verification from RennTech just for the sake of your own customers. If all this is so, then RennTech should never have leaked that a new one is coming, since everyone will stop buying the current one. Not very smart marketing, if you ask me.

First of all, Renntech never mentioned about giving existing clients a free upgrade with any IC pump purchase.

Secondly, the bigger pulley can only be sold in conjuction with the IC pump. Not everyone wants to spend more than the current Stage 1.


Once the newer pulley is released, then Renntech will decide the arrangements.

Till today, i do not know the specs of the new bigger pulley. (diameter size, etc) Its all up to Renntech at this point to enlighten us.

So, do you think they may offer both pulleys even after the larger one is out? I can see where not everyone will want to spend it all at once, but it is a sweet upgrade. What stage would that even be? Also, do you have any word on the "race only" headers? I've been craving them ever since you mentioned it.

I would think Renntech will offer both the bigger pulley and the current pulley. Maybe its called

Stage 1
ECU + crankshaft pulley

Stage 1+
ECU + crankshaft pulley (diameter size) + IC pump

As for the long tube headers, i dont have any information on it either. Sorry.
