Sounds good to me, all dynos will give you a different reading and are never 100% accurate, so use that same place as a base for future tuning 8)

Mine is currently 198bhp with exhaust mod :lol: On another dyno it would probably be over 200. Depends on the Dyno.

Either way, sounds healthy to me!

Cheers well I always use that dyno so..I have the print out so must get it on here..it was 199 before an I had a problem with the engine let's just say I have comp.bearings in it now so it prob helped to..

A dyno is only a tuning tool you could go to ten different dynos and they could all give a different reading.. It's how it performs on the road that matters.

But definatley use the same dyno that way everytime you do a mod you will get a true reading of the increase in hp and torque.

What was the problem with the engine? :-k

 

[petie180]

The bottom end rattled..so I hada strip it an I rebuild it was lucky the shaft was ok..it would be a great engine for tuning now

Seems optimistic for a nigh on stock car, but as above, use the same dyno for future measuring as a comparison.

 

[petie180]

Well it's went from 199 to 212 on the same dyno so I'd be happy enough with that figure..

 

[viggen]

i got the same as you.212.2 bhp with top fuel intake and spoon cat back. xthumbsup

Really why?

With a catback and V-Power, what would be optimistic about 215bhp?

 

[Stoo]

Because it's nigh on stock... An isn't on the prescribed 100RON fuel.

Speaking from experience here, it's optimistic.

 

[C&S Evo7]

I would say that was spot on for a STD ish car, the fuel difference is worth a couple of hp only

 

[Stoo]

Ooops! For some reason, I thought it said 222bhp, which is why I said optimistic....
Skim reading FTL!!

212 sounds about right

I got 217bhp before with standard engine then on another got 212bhp. Then another with induction kit and exhaust got 221bhp. Goes to show how much they all vary. I preffer to high reading ones though :lol:
