rolling road result.
 
a little dissapointed tbh. car made 183.3 bhp atf and 152bhp atw with the mods in my sig. although before i left the bloke told me there could be another 6-7 bhp in there that didnt show up but would on another rolling road???

thanks to peterzs for showing his support and meating me down there.

I'm beginning to doubt these rolling road figures. I reckon they give you an idea, but aren't that accurate. I suppose you could go to one with a mate to settle the arguements about who's got the most, but the fugures they come out with are a bit unreliable.

i have herd before that they are somewhat unrelliable. the chap yesterday told me and peterzs that the civic type r only makes 180 bhp on his rolling road?

not worried about figures tbh as i only wanted to put on it there just to make sure the engine is running ok before its remap

any way here's the print out

i agree with what you say dan about been unaccurate

looking at others...

one on here made 200bhp with 171 ft-lbs

mine made 183bhp with 190 ft-lbs

i would have thought higher bhp would make higher torque???

Is your VIS balance valve working?

Shouldnt there be a gradient change at 3k? I would have thought the 'kick' you get would show up on the graph.

Nice torque figure though, must be the decat giving most of that improvement over standard? Not sure how it compares to other Zeds, but I'd be quite chuffed with that output.

dont know, why?

afcbadam 24-05-09 11:12 AM

i notice a kick at 3k when driving it, never noticed one at 4k though??

standard torque of a 180 is 177 ft-lbs.

well im so gutted! i have just taken the balance motor off only to find the plastic circular thing to be stuck and not touching the switches in side. after giving it a good clean and re-fitting the circle thing correctly, i have just driven the car and, wow, what a noticable difference. i have always thought my zs was flat after 4k, untill now, honestlly guys i cannot beleive the difference after 4k now, just wish id done this before the rolling road :)
