OcUK RR Printouts

I don't remember them hooking anything up to take oil temp readings. :confused:

Probably just left the probe somewhere.

49% tranny loss has to be some kind of world record surely? :D

Rolling Roads, you've gotta laugh.

Bear in mind they admit that the tranny losses are a bit off on those rollers. I got 50bhp last time, whereas in fact it's more like 25bhp loss, making a significant difference. I was around 170bhp/tonne as a result which is a bit closer to the truth. :)
 
Woa - can't beleive the losses on that Impreza. Thats mad!

Gonna have to bring mine next time, as I have no idea what I'm running.
 
Saved the best to last eh. ;)

Ya mine is the 300bhp MR2. :D

Some of the trace lines on these graphs are in a wibbly wobbly world of their own.

..and then some are smooth as silk.

Is this the software smoothing not working or genuine power/tq spiking?

Great to see all these results. :cool:

That standard MX5 is almost spot on, it's over reading by a little, but it's really not that much off stock values.

Some nice and interesting torque curves there from the MR2 and a few others...

Over reading by 16bhp i think, he only has the 1.8i which is the 130Bhp lump iirc, i think only the S and Sport got the 140Bhp Unit, but i could be wrong and it could have only been a spec thing in the Mk2.

Interesting comparing mine and LordMikes MR2's. Can clearly see how much more efficient the CT20 turbo in the Rev3's is compared to the CT26 in the rev2's. Holds power much higher into the rev range, whereas mine drops off.

He only Rev'd yours to 6k too, would have been interesting to see how much more it drops off from 6k to 7k

You are stupendously wrong! :p

All mk2 1.8's have 140bhp, and the mk1 1.8's, iS's and i's all have 130BHP.

:confused: are you saying the M5 has poor torque?

I think someone isnt looking at the graph values, and is just seeing the torque low down on the graph :p

I'm not so sure, i think some of the very early R plate mk2 still got the 130bhp unit till it was switched over, i remeber looking at the time i was buying, apart from the quite large specification change i do remember a bhp change from the 98s to the 98iS.

Parkers have moved some of the stats about from when i was last looking due to the MK3 specs coming out.

Ah well it could all be in my head, i did have another car stats site that listed it all our exactly with all the options your get but i've lost it.

Focus ST looks very linear for a turbo, and look at all that torque from 2,000 rpm.

Its very much like that to drive, other turbo's i have driven have felt like turbo's, this doesnt feel like that at all.

Its a 5 pot so i wonder if tha makes a difference?

Small Turbo and 2.5 litre. Turbo doesn't neccessarily mean Laggy, Rover turbos are probably very similar as they use a small turbo
