Power output problems.

Just reading This thread and it's making me a little worried. Let hope this one is just a mistake or problem with 1 car.

Personaly not worried about it, will be either the rolling road or he a troll or something.

Remember , rolling roads results are only comparable with itself and at on the same session too.

Andy,

I read that too this morning and there seems to be a great deal of confusiuon as to whether the readings were accurate.

I think one post talks of a 27% loss from engine to wheel bhp.....

I join you in hoping that it is all just a mistake.

Although if the high power car is only putting out 174bhp I doubt the 0-60 time could be as low as 6.4 sec.

Chris

As you can see on the thread now, there are alot of unanswered questions as to whether the DSC was kicking in, and other things.

I wouldn't put any stock in that until someone who knows the car better and gives us better feedback puts the car on the dyno.
