Good god that is a 43% transmission loss :eek2:

Something is wrong with that info...

I think so too, but I'm stating what is on my printout. I know PS's rollers are said to be pessimistic, but that is just downright depressing.[/img]

Do RRs actually measure transmission losses or do they simply multiply the whp by a pre-specified percentage (ie an estimate of likely transmission losses) to arrive at the bhp at the fly ?

lol what a quote but numbers usually relate to something. I bet yhou would prefer these numbers 3.5 rather than 10.6 when related to your 0 - 60 time. Or try this 9 inches or 2 inches which would you prefer to have :norty: . Numbers are just numbers but in the right situations mean a lot. I wouldn't mind someone giving me the 6 numbers for saturdays Lottery draw ...... SO numbers on a rolling road to have a lot of importance in the right circumstances ...

What gearbox did you have and could I get all those mods for 4k and if so where do I go pal.:)

imho RR's are pretty useless unless you used the same one before your mods, or if you have a standard car there to use as a yard stick
