Guess the BHP!

[estorilblue]

Hello peeps!

I'm in the process of finishing my Furby to the standard I want (I will get some pictures up soon!) However I don't have access to a rolling road to get an actual BHP figure...

Therefore can some of you hazard a guess as to what it may be? I'm sure many of you have run this spec or similar!

2004 Fabia vRS

Basic Revo remap

Full miltec exhaust including decat

Forge FMIC

Green panel filter (yes I know...go back to oem!)

Pd160 intake.

Any educated guess welcome!

What do revo say? They must know what sorta power their maps produce. Around 170bhp I'd have thought.

[vertrider06]

Yeah i heard about 170 for a revo. Was gonna get one this morning but now cars gone to different place and having custom map on rolling road.

Was told revo is aggressive on clutch if you drive hard, Thats from what i've read btw...

[vertrider06]

I was also told that if you have a revo 1 remap you can pay a smaller amount afterwards for a revo stage 2

[AwesomeHassan]

Revo quote 170 BHP and 280 lbft.

I would like to say it should do just over them figures.

Have you had an uprated clutch fitted?

You could do with a custom map to gain maximum performance

[kiddy1]

172.8bhp.... My guess :p

[vRS Joe]

174.5 & 295 lbft for me

Whats the prize?

[Scott Howie]

similar setup to mine, i will be having my milltek cat back put on this week or next, but im not running a fmic, i reckon mine is about 170

[Lee Rich]

You have a PD160 intake so around 185ish

lol

[devonutopia]

The FMIC might free up some power as it will keep the boosted air cooler, so a better burn. I will be highly optimistic and say 176.9bhp Don't know about torque, circa 300 maybe.

ROFL. Ask Steve (makefish) about REVO knowing what figures their maps make

[feebs]

179 - and 300

[Sy.]

165 as most mappers get optimistic

[estorilblue]

Thanks guys, I was thinking around 175 and 300.

I take it I need a hybrid turbo to get to stage 2?

[XLBaconDoubleCheese]

Everyone has their own views on what stage is what. But the turbo is your current limiting factor, so you`ll need either a 150 or a hybrid 130/150 to gain more power.

[estorilblue]

So can I buy a used 150 turbo from another VAG car? Worth doing? What cost? Plug and play?

[estorilblue]

Anyone?

[estorilblue]

Actually Revo software quotes 170 and 280 with no mods at all. Surely my car has to be higher than the current guesses?

Forge Fmic, Full miltek and PD160 have to count for something!!!

Stock filter now though!

[faboka vrs]

If the stock exhaust and intake were restricting air flow then yes it would count for something. But I don't believe then do.

Plus if they did increase airflow then you would have to get the mapping altered to increase fuel, unless it was over fueling before the changes.

[max132]

I'd say have it RR'd to be sure but then youd have the argument about where it was done and how some are more accurate than others( and god help if yours is higher than expected becasue it won't be possible with those injectors).

It's nice to get an idea, but how it drives is the main thing. My set up was similar to yours before the hybrid and with a custom tune and sachs clutch was recorded at 186bhp and 328lb/ft. that was standard turbo with induction kit.

cheers

[estorilblue]

Thanks max, that's good to know. How much do rolling road sessions cost? I've never been in one. I wonder if there's one near Bristol?

:yes: Interpro in Thornbury

I don't know how accurate their rollers are though. It was a long time ago that we crashed a SCN meet there. Jason's mongrel was very much a WIP.

An early mongrel dyno run

The smile on the operators face says it all
