what kinda pipe u running? if your on a 4 branch manifold with a filter etc these are slightly above the figures youd see with them mods
if you aint got a 4 branch manifold thats a pretty high output for just a system and filter, but then they always say they loosend up, the looser they are the more horses they kick!!

I don't want to "rain on your parade", but it might be worth getting it tested at another place to compare figures. Dyno tests can vary wildly between places.
I would have thought them to be standard, but I was informed differently.

I know of a VR6 with a panel filter who claims 217 BHP on a dyno run in Aberdeen, where as all my work by AmD has only just pushed my VR6 over the 200 mark on their equipment. And I know mine is quicker than his!

Dont take that figure as gospel, i think it is quite known that Stealths rollers are quite generous with the horses, all in all that is good though, but i believe Awesome's rollers are coming out well too at th moment. I am having my RR'd mid october with a RR day on seatcupra.net

looking forward to that ...

If you want to know, then look in the track section on the forum, there is a rolling road planned at silverstone in the coming months, loads of us are going to be there, giving it the best crack possible and see what we all get.  :cool:

looking forward to seeing how much below the stated power output old lardy tappet @rse is spuing out...... will be the laughin stock of the day i reckon... mind you if me wheel spacers have turned up by then (i fookin hope so) then she might be too low to get on the rollers :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
