Simon and I attended a rolling road event today with a local Jap club.

Here are the results:

Pete:

Max BHP - 303 @ 5950rpm (260Ps ECU)
Torque - 293 lb/ft
Boost - 0.92 max reached (so still more available :-D )
Max Speed - 160mph (on the clock verified by the tester and onlookers)#

Simon:

Max BHP - 268 @ 5750 (280Ps ECU)
Torque - 260 lb/ft
Boost - standard
Max Speed - 160+ (again verified)

Here are the videos I shot:

PETE (http://www.p.honey.btinternet.co.uk/RollingRoadPete.wmv) - 6.04Mb

SIMON (http://www.p.honey.btinternet.co.uk/RollingRoadSimon.wmv) - 5.39Mb

Top car of the day was a Nissan 200SX (S13) that Mr Simon Norris has had his sticky fingers on - 437bhp !

Now what more evidence is there :-D ??

What I/we want to know is where are the limiter's ???

Richie has mentioned several times he has hit it at 152 :thinking:

Is this graph a good sign then Dave ? The guy said she was running fine but the boost spiked a little - what do you think ?

Mentioned to BDA earlier, if I can get my hands on a facelift ecu then maybe I can push 320+ with no further mods ?

Can I take it that was an exhaust extractor on your cars , & also, they seemed to take your cars to the limit very slowly ?? At well lane, It was 4 or 5 'runs' taken through the gears very quickly !! :thinking:

Simon

one slow run at 45mph then......shifted through the gears to fifth at about 2500rpm then let the car work its way up slowly, then spead up at the end.......seemed forever! :eek:

278/5 = 55.
55 x 6 = 330 ??

That was useful rounding down, Derek!

Even better - wouldn't the 278 be divided by 5. ? as surely the 6th pot would be assisting in some way and not be completely dead ? :)

Yeah but he was also not running at max throttle! 75% he said so

330 x 1.333 = 440 :wow: :D :p

Interesting reading - anyone got their ATW figures, or the transmission losses included ?
