190 @ the wheels

[devonutopia]

The latest RR result. (in 5th gear too)

Sounds good matey torque??

You don't get that. As it pretty much matches Jabba (according to Neal), we can say the good side of 350 lb/ft still. (I officially still say 360 but it was in exceptionally cold air)

Wait a minute, wasn't it 220bhp?

Yup, still is. At the flywheel though. The RR I went on only does at the wheels power, so due to transmission losses, you need to add about (for TDIs) 15% on. Never possible to get the transmission losses spot on as it varies from car to car, but Neal said 220 at the fly is realistic given what it did there.

(so for example if your car is 125 at the flywheel, you'd be lucky to see much over 105ish at the wheels on the RR I was on. )

Ah...okay you see I din't pay attention to 'AT THE WHEELS'....

And now I wait for walkie to slap me with another badge....

[flatfourburble]

I'm not jealous in the least bit!

Nice though mate, did you get a print out at all? 350lb/ft I bet thats fun to try and put down!!

190 at the wheels aint bad mate

jabba said i had 180 at the wheels in my octavia but that at all 4 wheels wish i had the same torque though :eek:

[bengie]

forgot ask, did you get a plot?

[devonutopia]

You don't get a plot at TSR, just a figure - But it was only £5 so I'm not gonna grumble. I guess as its the same as Jabba you'll need to look up my dyno plot on here somewhere?

[bengie]

can't complain at a fiver

whats it actually like to drive though J?

[devonutopia]

Fookin brilliant. Even Neal "Mr. 3.2 biturbo Passat" gave it a raised eyebrow and a "fookin' hell"

Was in Bridgwater anyway to pick some alloys so as they say, "while in Rome..."

Oh and its a bit better now I'm back home and have tyres on the front with some tread.

[bengie]

a new diff might be a good idea now so you can use that torque better

[flatfourburble]

Jason you could always have ago at fitting a 4x4 system that should help put the power down

[devonutopia]

Future mods are " on hold"

Note cunning use of "" marks

[bengie]

don't suppose anyone else see's fast ford do they??

there is a mk3 fiesta with cossie 44x running gear and engine in it!!! :eek:

sounds like a plan J

[drm_jones]

190 at the wheels must be fun then Jason

I seem to be going through front tyres a bit quicker now.

funny I use the same thing when ever I talk about mods to SWSBO

Go on jason you know you want to!

[drm_jones]

There can't be much more left for Jason to modify can there

[WW_VRS]

That's some amazing power at the wheels - you'll definitely want some grippy tyres

[ChrisRs]

Should be nearly as fast as my REAL vRS by now Jason !!!

Well done, another 7.6 and you'd beat mine, might have to turn the boost up to 1.6 or will I just go for LPG to give me a little more

Mind you mine had 51bhp tranny loss. To get the 197.6.

J is talking WHP not fly figures

J is talking WHP not fly figures

I'm not thick, although I do drive a Fabia, I'm also talking WHP

My car at 1.5 Bar is 248.6 at the fly, then 51 tranny lost giving the 197.6 WHP.

Sorry for the lack of clarity in the first post but I thought the last sentence was clear enough.
