JKM dyno = 174.9bhp 332lbft


Our rolling road 171.9bhp 333lbft


Spec2 still with running issues at peak boost 179.6bhp 338lbft 


The main gain was another 15bhp/15lbft across the whole band.  Not much peak power but the car was tranformed due to the smooth curve and greater avg BHP.

With an extra 15bhp and

Does that mean more smog?

Does that mean more smog?

dunno  hope so!!! 

Though I 'think' because the boost levels are upped then it helps burn the fuel so less smoke.

Nick can confirm that though 

[Adam]

Iv got more smog! I love the smoke.

Them graphs depress me now. Need to get that sorted.

[jonnyturbo]

  = smog

So no power untill 2000rpm then its run out again by 3500 rpm.

So a 1500 rpm powerband 

Its like a reverse vtec with a lower power band!

I wondered if you'd show up 

look at the BHP figure as well though and see how its maintained right to the end; in effect its almost have of the rev range

End of the day you hate diesels FACT and you're looking at the wrong graph 

When you getting your MK4 by the way so we can laugh at your lack of power

good sh!t just had a chat with the r tech people its around 150 quid for tunign ti and rr it think am quite limited now to get more gains coz ill have the milltek on and i have the r tech map unless i spend big bucks i think it will just stay around 200 bhy mark which is quality.. the only thing is am gettign used to the dam map now and the buzz is wearign off plus i dotn really boost it past 3000 revs on the motorway or overtaking  coz i think am ragging it by the sound of the high revs?! am i?

depending on how your map is setup then most useful power will be done by about 3500rpm although the 150 does maintain the power for longer due to the bigger turbo.  Its always good to give it a thrashing now and again to help clean out the crud

Steve's peaks at 28PSI and then holds 23PSI to the redline!!
