Hey

Had it on the rollers with Red-Dot guys all good standard car produces 223 max bhp and 158 lb'ft torque is this any good also what gains would i get with a chip

Cheers Alex

Torque is way down. Bhp is good.

My guess would be that your ebv isnt working properly or boost leak and your getting close to base boost.

Ross

Wow yeah torque should be around 229/230 lb/ft

Any graph btw?

Ross

surely bhp would be down aswell if boost was leaking. Red dot is that a mobile roll road at fcs 2007? was reading about a guy on the c2 forum whos vtr bhp was ok but was way down on torque he had rolling road by red dot at fcs 2007.
Mobile rolling road generally are sh** they just want the next guy on to test to make more £££.

It depends what kinda boost leak he had. If it was one based on pressure i.e. at a certain pressure a hose was developing a split letting out boost, then at redline, where the boost is less, it might not be affected.

Ross

To make 223bhp with a peak of 158lbs/ft you would have to be redlining at 7500rpm. A standard coupé redlines at 6800rpm so I think Alex may have made a typo there

Are you going on the 5700rpm rule? About torque and bhp crossing?

Ross

Rolling road printout

see above my car is running a prv set to 1 bar boost as have a guage and a k+n ind kit as far as i am aware this has got me a little worried i am new to coupes you guys help is much apprieciated

Thnx Alex

The scale is totally incorrect, that print out cannot give both the BHP and Torque on the same scale... it is the torque that is totally wrong.

It doesnt look right.
