more modern dynos dont use coastdown to measure transmission losses. they accurately read the power at wheels figures and can turn this figure into a true BHP at flywheel figure.

I didnt mean to cause any trouble

Did someone watch Top Gear on UKTV G2 from 8pm til 9pm? I want to put my car on the rollers, see how much it has lost in its 65k mile life.
