Peak power at 4600rpm? You sure it had grip?

i dont know, but i strongly suggest you take it to somebody who knows what they are doing and get it set up properly,before you melt the engine.

Think i'm gonna take a trip to reylands,2nd opinion,it sounded like to me it was hitting the limiter on the rollers,if it was slipping ,surely the bhp would not be so high,He had to do it in 5th gear,as 4th went to quick,about 2 seconds it was all over

it wasnt set up on the rollers correctly then mate as ive had 2 high power rwd cars on rollers one at 472 bhp and one at 550 bhp and both were run in 4th and both took longer than 2 seconds from hitting boost to the limiter.
i have seen that happen with the 472 bhp one but it was due to wheelspin and had to be strapped down tighter.

Sadly with those recorded figures you may as well throw the whole graph in the bin as its garbage from start to finish. sorry mate.
