Today I went up to AET Motorsport who have a Dynapack dyno. This is the same make of dyno that APR use to tune and advertise their outputs for their cars. these Dynos are all calibrated to run within 0.3% of each other and so I thought I'd see what my R would do.
Only used the LOWER two of my three settings on the dyno as the higher setting was just hitting the over boost shutdown and I didn't want to push things too far.

Here was the result......465whp ( 511bhp - target achieved  :cool: ) and 385 wheel lbft.

Full boost just after 3500rpm!!

Does this mean a new goal, 600bhp?

The question is, how much can the DSG gearbox handle?  :rolleyes:

Stock Clutchpacks with my software will handle 450lbft without any slip. SSP Clutchpacks are rated up to 600lbft. It will be the gear sets and driveshafts that will probably let go first, but so far no aftermarket BT Golf R's have let go like this yet, which is a good sign. :cool:
