Yes, but I haven't got a scanner and I know some folks took pics of the screens. So was hoping to have posted on here to compare with Ed's.

Imran from Evolve called me on Sunday as someone let him know of the much lower than expected numbers for my car from the meet.

He's calling me back today.

fastloop · 05-09-2011, 06:40 AM

Ant, just take a photo of it.... don't really need a scanner.

What brand and octane fuel were you using?

Ant Man · 05-09-2011, 08:48 AM

I only run Vpower and filled up a a couple of weeks ago.

I've just had a good and long discussion with Sal. The strapping down of the car, the position of the wheels on the rollers, rolling radius of tyres (higher rolling radius = greater power) all makes a difference but probably not to the extent of the difference between mine and Ed's car.

The car is going back to Evolve for investigating to confirm what's what.

dxb335d · 05-09-2011, 11:36 AM

What was the power difference then?!

Ed, can you confirm your torque figures pls? I had 300 or more from 3,700 rpm until 6,150. Max was as above (310lb ft) between 4k - 4.5k rpm.

Ed, don't bother. I've see your graph over page 5. My car made 7bhp more but that was at 8,600rpm compared to the stock limit of 8,400rpm.

Ant Man · 05-12-2011, 08:47 AM

I'm going back to Evolve in June for analysis / investigation. Will try and arrange a standard E92 with 19" wheels to be present too.

Cheers Ian!

Bit of a lightweight, but not bad for a hairdressers car

Stock car running on Esso 95RON

so regret not having VPower in for the run

parapaul · 05-15-2011, 04:21 AM

Feck me! If you can make that on 95RON you're onto a winner

That's more than likely your problem mate. The fuel you had in your tank would of been no where near it's best if it's been sat in your tank for 2 weeks and it's octane rating would of plummeted..

If you want decent RR figures from your car, always have good motion lotion in your tank before hand..

I've never heard of this. Do you have any evidence to back this up?

Hotcoupe, do you have any vid/sound files showing your exhaust.

I'm thinking of getting an exhaust which is demufflered cat back but want to see what its like on someone elses car.

Some people describe it as sounding like a jet fighter!!

I'd be going for a quad output.....yes I'm a sinner but the e92 rear end suits it.

I've already got a remap on my car, would an exhaust mod like this increase my power even without remapping?

Thanks.
