gonna take it for a run down to the new RR at Aberdeen next week, so if anyone wants to hazard a guess at my bhp figure feel free

Lightened and balanced motor, standard compression, standard cams

Induction and boost hoses all samco
breather kit
3 bar
K&N
full exhaust system
T34 .48 1.5 bar boost
dark greens
Group A fuel Pump
L8 ecu with stage 3 evolution chip from stu at msd

think thats it

 

12bhp

 

I was trying to make a serious post

 

330bhp

 

ok brutus
338

 

car not ran due blowing up on the way, scotland is a fooking long drive

 

bout 200 if ur lucky

 

be happy with that, thanks for the other sensible response

 

I reckon 330 is a sensible number, but you never know as all RRs read different, but 330 is a safe bet, cant see it being less anyhow unless there is problems

 

cheers bro, theres a slight stutter occassionally I dont know if theres to much boost and its blowing the plugs out or what, but il have it booked in for a tune up at same time just incase they want to tweak it a little.

apparently these are good rollers, upto 1600bhp, same as some of the bigger RR's in england G force etc, no sure of the make il find out.

maybe I can play about with the water injection aswell and see what difference that makes

 

M8 think you looking at 337bhp

 

340ish

 

335 at the doormirror

 

320 BHP is my guess

 

Provided they stick to your suggested 1.5 bar boost I'd say 320bhp with a .48.

 

315hp @ 6500ish
325lb/ft @ 4500ish

 

take it these are flywheels figures?? so what do u reckon with power@wheels

 

270 ish

 

I would say the most it could be really is 330bhp, do you know what exhaust is on it BTW?

 

Glen, i thought you had a cracked block ir is that all fixed now.

best of luck anyhow - i reckon about 340 ish

 

324 @flywheel

 

knock about 100 off the fly as it's 4wd

 

I was thinking that, but was being generous

ok then, 240

 

wasn't meant as a dig

 

No idea

WHAT he said LOL

Hope you get what you wont from it m8

 

cheers lads, yeh theres a new engine in it now, I scrapped the old one.

Not sure what zorst is on it but its a feckin monster looks like 3.5" straight through

im not expecting silly figures, just happy if it runs correctly No Det, and 320+ would be nice at flywheel

I am gonna send it to Mark shead in december for a major bit of work

 

Depends on the RR but i would guestimate @ 318hp @ flywheel

 

morning mate

thanks for that, will update the thread and put up the RR printout asap, hopefully they can get me on next week, shes in for a clutch and criveshaft today

 

I reckon about 142bhp

 

think you will be lucky to push 310.
spiky said knock off 100 bhp for wheel figs?
why that much?
where does all the power go?

 

4x4s lose shitloads thru the transmission, thats why i really dont like full time 4wd cars and wouldnt ever own one, id feel cheated.

Flywheel figures are calculated GUESSES from what the wheel figures bring.

I bet you barely get 200bhp@Wheels with the spec mentioned.

But i still bet they calculate it as 300+@Fly

 

dont think it will lose anywhere like 100 bhp at the wheels it seems pretty impossible to me....like i asked before where does it go?

i made 265 @ the wheels last week with low comp 20 psi t34/55.
it only 2wd so adding about 40 bhp for fly.

4x4 would prob add 50.
saying take off 100bhp for 4x4 is just a tuner trying to rip you off cos your cars not makeing the power....

 

I think its bollocks too, but look at the wheels power of similar spec RWD and 4x4 cars, unless the transmission loss thing is true then cossie engines are mysteriously less powerful once put in a 4x4

 

rapid surely if u take of 40 for 2wd u take of 80 for 4wd
not to sure if its the same loss through front wheels but wouldnt be that great a difference

 

i remember seeing a rr shootout with a load of scoobys and the average difference betwwen flywheel power and power at the wheels was 90bhp due to transmission loss etc and that was properly measured( the mag gave 2 figures) so it is right for definate

 

Different types of 4wd lose different amounts, its ALL a total guess tho, theres no way to confim apart from back to back tests one on an engine dyno to get the flywheel figure, then put an engine in the car and get a wheels figure.

 

343bhp

 

true!

 

331


dont forget to let us know.
