Is that much loss between the engine and wheels normal for that set up? 

That's quite a bit of loss.

30 to 40 bhp loss is about right.

Really??    Couple of times I've run on R-Tech's RR and I've seen losses of less than 20bhp

Or is it just a feature of the TSR RR?

Anyhoo - good effort

Well when I worked for TSR we always seemed to lose 30 to 40 bhp.

cheers bud. i will be at r-tech on the 29th august, so we'll see what happens there too.

TSR did have to spray the wheels/rollers with some sort of belt grease or something.... dont know if that would cause a slight loss at the wheels...

yeah, its 1.4 on the v5 now as i sent off the v5 to the dvla, but they need a headed paper from a garage to confirm the change to the engine code and engine capacity, so they told me to resend the new v5 with the headed paper then its all sorted
