Evening gents and fair laidys

Simple question
On a roling road today i got me 235 bhp and 209 torque
From a uk99 with center cat removed and back box and k and n induction.

NOW. the results on the day seemed consistent.

But 209 torque seems quite low, even when a standard 98 on the same day got more.

I know rr are not to be taken as gospell. B ut it is interesting to see the comparison.

Any one have any thoughts as to why the torque is so low, and how i can improve it.
The bhp and torque dont seem consistent.

Thanx v much

(oo ps) i have a custom zaust, from the downpipes back at 2.5" could be this i think???

Need to know the boost. The answer is usually there unless there is a fault.

Boost is as normal (beleive .9 bar) so the dude on the roling road told me today

He said its runnig fine, no fuel problems, im using optimax

hi m8
me down to 236 plus 233 t and 1bar boost for my wrx ppp.
later in the day at RR chesterfield were down but i am in same boat but spending a hell lot on my wrx and ppp. should kept my98 turbo.

been looking on the bard, cars with less mods than mine getting scores far higher (down to diff on RR) but it is curiuous.

Gon sling downpipes and dawes on it, but that should only add 10-20 bhp max, and up the torque. So i could be seeing 250 bhp. Unless i take it to another RR where ill get 290

Was there a decline in figures as the day went on? surely this is just coincidence?
