Feels very smooth and the torque is aggressive but not lumpy at all

@ RocketRoss - you are looking at the BHP axis not torque  :wink:

Torque looks ok but its the rate at which it drops off along with the peaks and troughs in the mid range

Does it feel smooth or jerky on the road??

@ Rhyso -I was saying the torque looks off and lumpy not the BHP, bhp curve looks fine.

You said the torque drops off to below 100lbs ft

Well in your graph you see the torque drop off at a really crazy speed and drops to a very low amount.

Looking at the graph i posted, Revo stage 1 should drop at a slower rate. In the graph you see it drop to about 280 N*m which is approx 205 Ft-Lbs. Your actually drop below 100 ft-lbs.


Feels very smooth and the torque is aggressive but not lumpy at all

Then it may well just be the dyno operator not doing his job properly and the car possibly not strapped down fully  :undecided:

Do you have another dyno local to you? Be interesting to see how it performs on that one

The graph is in lb/ft and the torque doesn't drop below 150lb/ft, at 5500 rpm it still has 255 lb/ft of torque? am I not seeing something I'm a little confused here?

It was Ross who was getting confused  :grin:

The curve should look a lot smoother than that though  :undecided:

Agreed the graph looks a little lumpy maybe that's just the operator on the rollers or the bolting down? all in I'm pretty pleased another boy with a stage 2 mk5 only got 250 so I'm
Not as disappointed as that :P
