Not sure on the full spec, although there's a little bit under the video. Mental

Seen this at MotorScope a few years ago on a RR day with RTOC.

Was making about 550bhp that was crazy enough!

1998cc 16v DOHC Turbo
Renaut F4R block
Forged internals
Custom manifolds
Custom camshafts
Garrett GT40
Adaptronic engine management
VAG 02M transmission

Not sure if the spec has changed much,
Seen it run in the ESC a few times is quite a machine.

will a hub dyno not be quite accurate when you calculate the gear ratio and transmission loss?

Long reading that mind, in short though hub dyno's are more accurate for calculating the actual power.
