Took my car to the local Dyno Dynamics rolling road at Veysport in Verwood, Dorset. I use DD Rollers all the time as I seem to get consistent results wherever I take the car if they use the same Dyno Dynamics kit.

Anyway, cut to the chase here's my Escort Cossie's run, first graph is power ATF, and torque curve, second graph is power at the wheels, complete with AFR and boost pressure.





Basic spec of the engine as far as I know is:

Escort Cos standard block, head and cams. T34.63 running 2 bar boost controlled via Blitz Dual SBC. R&B Swedish plenum with seperate vacuum block and billet fuel rail, Group A headgasket, Siemens 83 lb hr fuel injectors. L8 ECU with Motor Sport Developments chip – including Wasted spark coil pack driver, closed loop Lambda fueling and anti lag. Newman alloy vernier pulleys Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, K&N air filter, Extreme 3” stainless steel exhaust including decat.

Considering it's an off the shelf chip that MSD did for the previous owner, without seeing the car and for a very non standard spec (550 bhp capable fuel injectors on a T34 engine?), I think it's drives and fuels very nicely. At some point I'll take the car to MSD and get them to do a live map on it if I feel the need.

Anyway, like said, IMHO it drives very nicely. The RR operator was relatively surprised at the lowish torque level though, especially considering the 2.0 bar boost. 280 lb ft, where as my brother's Evo with 371 bhp made 320 odd lb ft. On the road not a lot between my Escos and his Evo, which is good

So is my car running a little low on torque / power or do the numbers all look fine? I'm quite happy with it, if I need more go I have a 600 bhp Evo to drive

Anyone got any RR graphs they could post up for similar spec 350-400 bhp Cossies?
