311lbft of torque.( :shocked:)

274bhp.

One seems a little high, the other a little low.

What does anyone know?

Yes its my car, the 274bhp is at the wheels, 298bhp at the flywheel, 311lbs/ft is about right for a remapped ED30, its bin as high as 321lbs/ft before now

as already stated these figures are measured at the wheels not the flywheel as shown in the graph on top

The torque figure is lb/ft and not nm.

These are very good numbers form just a remap 295 ish bhp and 310 lb/ft

I cant wait to get mine and i'm sure i'll be visiting awesome very soon.

I don't think I could bear to look when my car is remapped and put on rollers... even though there is a fan providing air to the radiator, it still doesn't match the draught you get when actually driving on the road and it can't be good for any car to be hammered like that on rollers.  :shocked:

its not that bad; just make sure its up to temperature before going on; i've been on two rolling roads and never suffered any problems; the temp gauge didn't even budge and that was after 2 runs

Its not so bad it isn't flat out for very long at all, just a short shift through the gears then to the red line or there abouts in fourth, no problem.

I have no doubt it'll do 300 once loosened up a bit more, it had only done 1600 miles at the time, its done 2000 now and just feels stronger and stronger
