wahoo just got the power figures for me saff
Went and had my saff RR'd yesterday and to say I'm happy with the figures is an uderstatement, worked out 371BHP and 389 ft lb of torque.
I'll try scan the graphs in later. Thought this was pretty good for the spec, greens, T34 .48 housing, 3 bar map sensor basically what most places call stage 3.

running 25 psi peak but I'd say it drops of to about 23 or so held. I know the greens are really on the limit and was thinking of going greys but I think I will prob leave it to the next owner as I'm selling up due to having a kiddy on the way, bummer spent ages rebuilding it now I got to sell it

I can understand the roller thing when someone sets it up and RR's it and gives you high figures to make there work seem worth it but all I had was apower run and generally most RR's should be regularly calibrated. I know it wil do 1/4 in high 12's so I would have thought this also proves reasonable power, I know its not amazing as loads of cars have more than this but I was quite happy especially as this was the first cossie engine I have built. tbh if it was 350 I would of expected that to be about right 
however other people have been out in the car who have experienced similar specs say it feels quick. This is where I get shot down for the ass dyno too now

Mine was done at Power Engineering. Here we go
BTW very impressed with PE yesterday I'd used them in the past and tbh had some probs, but with the new ownership the company seems far more customer focused. So thanks to Ian and Chris oh and Matt for booking me in

The problem being here is greens would need an increaseed fuel pressure to get more than 360bhp...
So this power figure is only 11bhp over reading IMO and as RR's are really a diagnostic machine the figures are ok....HOWEVER to acheive 360bhp youd need to hold 25psi to the line unless you had cams and or headwork.
All imo

got head work and slight modes on pistons. looks to me to be holding 25psi form my instrumentation but PE said 23 however road and roller situations are very different as eveyone knows.

Just wanted to say thanks to Mark at MA developments too as he set the car up and also fitted me in short notice today to check set up for me with the wide band as PE thought the CO was out. All is well I'm happy to report
