Neiler Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Well from what i hear on the sport you should be gettin over 100 (just) standard. As you generally get a few more horsies than they say, well as long as the engine is in reasonable condition. Depending on you induction kit etc you mite get a `1-2` brake increase. But more importantly you could find that you are reaching your max power a little earlier style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />.But dont be expecting anything major mate. Figures assumed the IND kit is getting plenty of cold air style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Thats good but has confused me somewhat :?: I had 131bhp at the flywheel standard and only 89bhp at the wheels when I had mine done at the club rolling road day.

Tigz™ Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Weird... could be configured incorrectly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish_Sport_16V Posted October 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Its defo 90bhp thats where ava test from . They only make a estimation of the fly wheel popwer as they beleave unless u stick the engine on dyno u cant read the real flywheel .

twisty b-road Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 At the wheels is a much better indication of power than "approximating" what is at the fly from looking at an up to 60mph run on the dyno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluxCo Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 89 at the wheel? you sure your gti is running right?how did the other gti's fair on the same session? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twisty b-road Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 It's a Sport Kam, 1.4 100bhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 He was talking about LincolnshireLupoGTI's results, I think - he said he got 89bhp at the wheels.I'll have to calibrate my gizmo for power readings sometime this weekend - never got round to it. Supposed to be accurate to about 3%... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 What the Lap top Snoop?Can you read it from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 No, the Apexi gizmo, `G-Force` meter/timer thing.You can do it via `VAG-COM` but it's *very* fiddly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardent Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Get a nice coloured excel graph when all compiled though. However your gizmo certainly hits the spot.Jayson gizmo slave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 If I remember... I read ages ago that the difference between power at flywheel & wheels is almost always 22%Not sure how or why...Altho, I could be totally wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
