Put my Superb in the dyno today its a CR 170 i really wanted to compare the power to my VRS PD170 Octavia which feels so much stronger in comparison

Slight issues with doing a dyno run as the car stops power so you need to pull the ESP/ABS fuse inside the cabin and we also had a fault code afterwards that we needed to clear

Both cars were run on the same dyno with corrections for temperature

Octavia

HP 198.9@4242

Torque 283.6@3179

Superb

HP 200.0@4276

Torque 268.4@3224

The crucial thing though is at lower rpm the Octavia is making a LOT more torque ie around 50ft lbs more at 2500 rpm this is why the PD feels so much stronger but the CR is a lot smoother in its power delivery

Interesting though

I take it the torque figures are in lb/ft?

Edit: Of course it is, must read post properly first.

How come the HP figures are around the 200 mark mate?

id love to know what mine makes!

Especially as since its 'Shark Bite'

When is there going to be a RR day for the midlands?

It is what it is , all dynos read differently you cant compare them
