The following is the output from a rolling road session - lower line pre-tune up, upper line after tune-up



I've tried to translate the figures into UK measurements - the power measurement of 128kw equates to 171 bhp and the torque measurement of 480nm equates to 354 lbs/ft????

Compared to the RR stats on this site, the torque seems hellish high and I'm not sure about power as it's usually quoted 'at the flywheel'

Figures achieved in '94wrx with K&N air filter, de-catted straight-thru exhaust and LINK ECU and boost set to 1.1 bar.

Does it all look reasonable or am I mis-understanding the print-out?

regards

edited to turn the piccie the right way round .....

These are ATW's figures, but even then, the torque seems well off. I can't see how it's possible with 1.1bar.

KWx1.34=hp
HP=torque ft-Ib x revs divided by 5,252

Phil,

I have done some work on your graphs and assuming that the red plot is indeed power in Kw, the enclosed may assist you in determining the true picture!



This is the actual data:-



Hope this helps!

Oh yes, the torque looks about right now. I cannot figure out the units that Possum Bourne have used for their torque figures unless it has been confused with rainfall during March in Angstroms!
