Rolling road figures
« on: 19 January 2019, 22:37 »
has anyone ever had a MK7 or 7.5 GTI that’s totally stock on a rolling road to see what it makes? I’m just interested if VW published figures are conservative or optimistic ?

Many tuners have before and after graphs of rolling road tests.
The Octavia vRS running the same engine also has a good few graphs available online.

I always felt my 230 PP was putting out more than the published figures having come from modified mk4,5 and 6 GTi’s.

The manufacturer quoted figures have been pretty much spot on in my experience.
