Power to weight ratio of your car?
- Thread starter Overlag
- Start date
After a recent visit to the dyno i can state that mine was running 256hp, 266lb.ft so its about 183hp/tonne atm. Some more map adjustments were made after the dyno run to improve things as it entered the knock map and didn't hold boost request properly through the mid range. (weakened spring in the actuator)
Stage 3 WRX (320bhp approx) works out roughly 213bhp per ton inc driver or 233bhp per ton not inc driver (would be pretty much useless without!)
Weight saving to be had yet, easily 30-40 kilos for starters simply by swapping out the spare and one of the non structural frames underneath, can be replaced by light weight tubular item which isnt even necessary.

My mk2 is about 147 and still makes me smile , hopefully one day I'll do a 20vt conversion and grin myself to death

An extra 2bhp made you go from 214bhp/ton to 222bhp/ton....?
Surely you mean 215bhp/ton.
