Im no expert on reading these things...but it appears you have around 130kw ATW. Torque im not too sure on because i dont know how to convert N to Nm. Anyone able to help?

CreeR2, as Woody mentioned, 130kw at the wheels. Extrapolating back to the on-paper figures from Subaru, I'd guess you've improved from 180kw to somewhere in the region of 195kw or so. Torque wise, I'd guess around 305Nm at the flywheel (engine) - that compares to the on-paper figure of 290Nm

Doubt a heavy duty clutch would improve power at all unless your clutch was slipping on your last dyno run (when you got 140kw)

What da hell! How come yours is so powerful compared to mine!

That's like a 10kw difference!

If you look at the graph, the stock power was already pretty good, how can there be sucha difference? That's like 10kw!

Had my 3.0 6mt on the dyno on Friday. Made 131kw. It was pulling timing and IAM was dropping. Only mods are Hitech Quads. I would post the dyno sheet but for some reason I can't copy and paste the link from my Photobucket account. :(

Purpose of the dyno run was to get a pre tune figure so I can do a before and after to see what gains I have made if any.

Thanks to Mark, parso_rex and Port Hacking Automotive.

So, do I hv some more power atw after installed the HD clutch , should be more than 140kw for now?? (I know the power at flywheel remain the same)
or should I do 1 more Dyno run?

Simple answer - NO
Clutch does not add power. You should have 100% power transfer even with a stock clutch. A HD clutch will only allow better "bite" for take off/gear change and should last longer before slipping occurs due to higher pressure plate.

I guess I just got lucky in the engine department. I test drove a cople other 3RB's before buying mine and it did feel to be more powerful than the others I had driven.

Well I did recently test drive the Gen V Liberty GT and my car felt more powerful. I'm keeping my RB. :P

After the VTune there's definately some very usable power with the 3.0

I know the clutch do not add on power, but as I know, a better clutch which will transmit an increase in engine torque / power atw? correct me if its wrong
