Just woundering about peoples rolling road figures, are the figures peolpe are saying there car is running at the flywheel figures or at the wheel figures?

Just had my car RR'd and its running

198 bhp at the wheels

231 bhp at the flywheel

Do most people quote flywheel figures?

nice what mods you got?

normally at the fly as its the bigger figure and sounds better lol

what about the torque?

Is the torque the same both st the flywheel and wheels?

Mine is 330lbft

You forgot to mention you also have an uprated clutch and a single mass flywheel

Otherwise people are gonna point out that amount of torque will kill a standard clutch/flywheel setup

How could I forget about the flywheel haha

330lbft is low :(

330lbft is low :(

Yes my 224bhp and 370lb.ft... I get the performance out of mine based on the 224bhp not the torques.

In fairness, it was half a troll post. However depending on where it has 330lb.ft and until when really depends if its any good. I had/have higher torque figures, and it keeps them across the rev range rather well, hense the performance. I would rather have 330lb.ft peak, and keep it for 1,250 - 1,500rpm than 370lb.ft for all of 100rpm or so, then it drop sub 300...

Yes people get distracted by peak figures when they mean almost jack all

The higher up the rev range it is and the longer it holds out for the better

None of this 1800rpm stage 1 junk lol

Mine is bog standard. 2 years ago (March 09) I put it on a Rolling Road at Motoscope in Northallerton, North Yorkshire. This is what I got:

Max Power - Wheels - 114.5 bhp @ 3,838 rpm

Max Power - Engine - 143.3 bhp @ 4,055 rpm

Max Torque - 249.9 lbft @ 2,116 rpm
