Indy GSXR dyno setup
Wondering about having my MK Indy setup on a Dyno. It runs well but with a stock set up through a Power Commander module. I think it could be
optimised though as it runs fairly rich and is very thirsty when pressing on..
Any suggestions welcomed - I'm on border of Herts and Beds

### is very thirsty when pressing on..
That comment is priceless, particularly if the engine is the GSXR1000. Even the NA engine in my road-going car will consume fuel at 1litre/minute when
pushed hard.
IF you have no error codes, no electrical gremlins or anything of such similar nonsense then get the car to a Dyno.
My preference is PDQ (Slough), but Powertec (Peterborough) will also do a good job.

PDQ in Slough. Brilliant guys who know their bike engines very well, andhave done many a remap for BECs. They found just
over 190bhp in my ZX12R powered 7 when I went there...

Yeah - realise now that sounds like stating the obvious..
I suppose I meant to say it slurps fuel (1/4 tank = 20 miles..) when doing anything other than just pootling around under very low load. I'm not
expecting or even looking for economy but just got me thinking that it's probably not running optimally (is that a word ?).
No technical issues/faults at all. Thanks for the tips - will give them a try.

Anything around 1 litre/min for these engines isn't excessive. A good track day will empty two 20l Jerry cans of high octane. Build a
(seriously) tuned engine and start running race fuel.... ooo... it gets quitre pricey.
I still have a 2.5NA Transit diesel engine available if a Pinto replacement looks too thirsty :-)

Get over to pdq. You won't regret it.
