[topher]

dont suppose anyone recorded their whp figures?

Probably would mate..

DRIVER SKILL!!!!! has a big part in it Vtec!!, i went out in GTijames's ed30 with all his mods, and yes its faster, sounds the bussines, but figure of 315-320 are way way out imo. We saw 4-5 std GTi 5's today producing stock readings.

You have a talent being able to launch an ed30 from a standing start  Vtec, im sure you in the hands of any of the modded ed30's would produce simular results, but i really cant see Revo giving nearly 40bhp then other mapping companys. They even said, that 315+ is "Very Poptimistic" with the mods that have been done to your Vehical.

You must either come south, with blue_182 aswell, or try DD rollers.

Ok so what figures do expect to see from a Bluefin only ED30?

Ditto REVO?

Bluefin should make at least 290 and Revo just over 300..
As for driver skill mate, I have DSG, so once off the line makes bog all difference. My 60ft times in the ED30 are no better than most average drivers (2.3) as it's a pig to launch, so it's not the launch..
I would love to have a run against Phil's car, even on a rolling start. As judging by JKM's results he should be with me most of the way. But going off what my ED30 was like standard, I very much doubt it.. NO offence to Phil of course (any standard ED30 DSG would do) 
In fact i'm at Pod next sat if anyone fancies it...?

I would of liked to mate. But just was to far for me and had stuff on..
If JKM's rollers are 100%, WITHOUT A DOUBT, BANG ON! Then there will be a lot of Tuning companies that will be in trouble with Trading Standards..   And someone needs to explain to me how a 270bhp ED30 can do 0-100 in 11 secs and see off A LOT of bigger powered machinery..

I don't think anyone is saying a well setup ED30 with the Revo Stg 1 and a TBE will only achieve 250-270bhp, even mine with only a very generic remap and a better filter got 277.7bhp.

If we can get another RR day in the midlands or not too far north then I will be happy to come along to give some form of comparison.

Your right - however from today it seems that these figures are realistically unachievable - be that due to the atmospheric conditions/temperature etc etc etc. I'm sure in theory they can be achieved. Don't tuners quote hp gains that can only be achieved in completely ideal conditions - conditions that are nearly impossible to achieve in real life? But as we learnt today, every single car is different...so you may have a goodun'

i would of thought that all remappers would give very simular figures, but given the way the torque curves changed shape between maps was a simularity i noticed today

[MAT ed30]

we will see what we get at the end of the month with the revo lot   me,Ben,Gaz,I have come from a leon cupra r running stage 2 APR and that was making 270bhp and i had it on lots of rollers and it always came out pretty much bang on every time and my ED30 pulls alot harder than that ever did
