by 1 bhp but I looked at the prevous graph and you can see an increase in torqure and a shift in the curve higher up the rev range which coincides with the matched inlets and map.

Mine should be around 177 stock which is dispointing. Thing is on the road there is nothing in it compared to my mates 172 which was RR'd as 185bhp with the same mods and 182 manifold at Owen developments.

One thing that pissed me off was that when it made 171 bhp and he said that was it after two runs. I then said it wernt standard, then it magically got another 4bhp. Also my graph only goes up to 7.3 when it revs past 7.5 rpm

Fad, maybe you did actually get sold a 172 with a 182 bodykit?

There was the freak occourance with that Diesel VRS suddenly making 375lb/ft of torque and about 300bhp in the middle of one run and then 180 odd there after.

The rollers are the dogs bollocks.. Dyno Dynamics 2800bhp AWD setup.. I think maybe running so many cars in succession is not really a good idea?

Are they really STi? I thought STi were like 275bhp?

Suprised at how little torque they had as well.

I thought Dave's car (Captain_Rossco) was 5bhp down not up? Shouldn an E46 M3 be more than 315bhp too ?
