dyno day

wow thats good torque! considering the early north american PD's were making 110 hp @ 170 ft/lbs.  cool

You're right that is good torque almost too good to be true.I kind of thought it was a little high so I have done some calculations and believe that its about 14% too high.It should read more like 106 whp and 174 wtq.

I can't believe people make 200hp with a mechanical IP on a 1.6td.
Can THAT be true....
I want to see the dyno results on one of those...
Or a comparison between a stock tuned up 1.6td
and one pimped to the max with a giles pump, intercooler, poo loads of boost, huge exhaust and DP ect.


im sure this has been done. This forum is more than old enough.

I keep seeing the show "Cars,Cops and Super Cars" I think its called? could just be "Super Cars" but these guys tour the states in the most expensive cars money can buy (I'm sure you've all seen it )
I wish there was a GTD tour  :roll:
Complete with road side HG changes and all sorts of hilarious stunts like that.
Oh, and a wake of diesel smoke and complete with rioting environmentalists. (even though diesels, IMO burn less fuel than a gasser making it more earth friendly)
