My power

[partyboy23]

got a 182 with bmc filter matched inlets decat milltek and remap,it just pushed out

169.39 lbs/ft torque @ 5010rpm

180.18 bhp @ 6206 rpm

38.95 drag



any good?

 

[J03]

your missing 2 bhp

 

[partyboy23]

lol yeah but we all know it doesnt actually kick out 182 ponies

 

[A2H GO]

I would have expected more from those mods, but then you could be loosing some power from the BMC and the RS tuners is hardly an accurate way of measuring power output.

 

[lemonnobby]

No i would of expected more too. i got a 172 with a decat and a yozza exhaust with an itg and it made 179bhp

182 means 182ps, not Imperial Horsepower. It roughly works out at 179bhp

I'd be happy with that, considering it was probably around 170-175 standard.

 

[partyboy23]

true i will have to get it rr sometime to see how the figures differ,iv always fort the bmc felt abit dodgy tbh

 

[partyboy23]

yeah i had to work the figures our from kw into ps into bhp,i am quite pleased tho

I thought 100ps = 99bhp therefore 182ps = 180.17 bhp

Therefore why would it only make 170-175bhp standard?

 

[swordjo]

182ps would work out to 179.5248 Bhp... all you do is multiply the PS figure by 0.9846 to get the BHP figure (hope this helps).

So the OP's 180.18 is more than standard, but is has been measure at just under 300rpm from the Renault figures peak RPM for the PS (plus who knows what conditions Renault measure the PS in?)

F4R engines aren't exact built to the tightest tolerances. And can vary more than you'd think, engine-to-engine.

So the OP's F4R might have developed less than the quoted figure from the factory, it wouldn't be the first time.

 

[gaz44]

Scrapping over 1.17 BHP?

hehe i know that i was just being sarcastic

 

[Christopher]

Don't reduce it to a farce.

Some of the biggest arguments are here have been over similar, tiny figures.

 

[Englebert]

As long as it feels better to you, who cares. Besides, different rolling roads and different conditions are going to give wildly ranging figures

 

[DrR]

It's all about the BHP per ton TBH

 

[partyboy23]

true well it feels alot better to me hardly any flat spots now

 

[Haybails1980]

I had my standard 182 rolling roaded last year and it made 179bhp which I believe is bang on the money. The other 182 that was rolling roaded that day had an induction kit, full stainless exhaust system and a decat and made 176bhp.......needless to say I was surprised but very happy!

 

[Jay_A]

had my Trophy done last week and made 170.4bhp. Only mod so far is an ITG panel filter.

 

[bomber]

different rolling roads produce different figures. its all about bragging rights tbh i think. unless your doing power runs in a controlled environment prior, during and after any mods are done.
