hey guys

had the car on the rollers today, only mods i have is gtec 1, cat back system and a induction kit. I made 282bhp and the same in torque hahah, can this be right? or is my car running a different turbo?

Lol. Even running a different turbo, thats not possible without other mods i dont think.

Graphs? Where did you run?

Ross

What were the at the wheels figures? I've seen a few rolling roads which grossly over compensate for transmission losses!

at the flywheel its 282.3 bhp
and power at wheels 232.3

and max engine torque came out at 275.8 lb ft

max speed hit 121.5 mph at 6219 rpm

I think the flywheel figure has been calculated wrong, they have factored in too much transmission loss. If 220 at the flywheel is about 190 at the wheels (standard 20vt), then 230 at the wheels is going to be just over 260 at the fly. Did you get a fuelling graph and a boost graph? Could also be running lean or overboosting, you need those figures as well as the BHP graph to be sure it's in perfect health.

ah i got graph and everything here mate, aint got a scanner to upload it, he said my fuelling was spot on too, had a look at it while it was running, so i dunno, maybe im not running standard turbo im not sure?

What boost was it at redline?

Ross

Do you maybe have a red rocker cover? That adds at least 50bhp.

Is that how YOU done it?

Ross

Yup.

400bhp here i come!!

ROss

Ah yes the fabled "red devil" LE engine that makes 300BHP standard.

Do you know, thats where barbz got mines from

Ross

p.s. cant admit that tho, so thats why i have all the mods, to keep it a myth.

where? old trafford?

Nah beckham said Alex ferguson was from Scotland

Ross

Wonder who started that rumour? besides an LE owner obviously. making up for a lack of something elswhere?!

Well i think alex fergusons accent gives it away pinin

Ross

I wouldnt believe anything he says, he calls football "soccer" and named his kid brooklyn

I think victoria writes down what he says anyways, thats why she wears trousers and he wears shorts.

Ross

any graphs Paz? it seems high for Gtech1 and induction kit!

i know, i have graphs yeh, cant post them up though not got a scanner, i also have cat back system,but thats the only mods i have done to the car,but it does go like stink. Strange. it does feel like 280 bhp but i dunno. only way to tell would be against a well tuned coop

Photocopy the results and post them to a fccuk boffin.

Any boffins please stand up?

Well ive got exactly the same mods as Paz and i got 210bhp at the wheels which worked out at 255bhp at the flywheel and 253lb/ft.
