Dyno'd my 1.4 16v at Fast Show

[JamesWilson]

Hiya, got my little 1.4 16v dyno'd at fast show my dynotech by dyno dynamics. To be honest I wasn't that impressed as they couldn't even get my name (James) spelt correctly they wrote Jason instead. Anyway the car before me had been previously dyno'd a week before by another place and it came out at 210hp, it was a charged fiesta st, and when it ran on the dyno at fast show it ran 165hp which is a 27% difference.
According to their dyno mine ran 90.5hp, which out the factory the spec says its 98hp standard. Mine has various modification and was hoping for more than than, but if their dyno is about by around 27%, that means mine is around 115hp which is the figure I was looking for.
Here is the result, the torque line is lovely i think
Comments??

saw this on the dyno, was gonna put mine on but was too busy down the strip!

nice. you shouldve came to RStuning and found out the real bhp though! :rasp:

are you after a 172 rear/front bumper and or cup spoiler lol?

 

[172Ben]

I don't think it works like that. "mine must be 115bhp"

Apart from the fact yours won't be 98bhp anyway....

 

[G3 NYX]

Mine is 110bhp, and on the dyno I got 110bhp, with exhaust and v6 airbox.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

LMAO.

Further proof that random dyno runs are utterly pointless.

 

[MartinR]

78bhp sounds more realistic

That thing at fastshow is crap, it said for some one in the club i was with that their car was only 200 ish bhp. But the RR people insisted it was accurate.

Got back home and had it RR'd on Monday and it knocked out well over 300bhp.

Also, if you didnt notice the fan they used was one thats used to blow up big inflatables like bouncy castles through a slot that is no more than 9" wide and 2" high.

This.

My 1.4 made 116.

But of course that can't be true. Why? Because CS says so. And lets not forget, CS knows everything.

 

[172Ben]

i didnt say it wont be, im just saying thats not quite how it works. Is the 98bhp actually ps, if so its like 95bhp.

20bhp increase on a 1.4 N/A is good going is it not?

Edit - <3

 

[Will.]

Wasn't aimed at you

I actually didn't read any of the other posts before I posted.

really? was that the '172 eater'? or is that a different 1.4?

 

[Will.]

No mine shat 172s

No it didn't really. Compared to a 172 it was slow, but it was a rapid car for its small engine. But of course it didn't really have 116 did it......

 

[john182rs]

lol... dear me

This is it, its called a B-Air dryer and is capable of moving 2500 cfm of air, it was about 6-9 feet away from each car placed on a single plastic chair held by some one that looked no older than 10.

 

[Knuckles]

surely thatd be the same as making someone jog a mile with a carrier bag on their head?

 

[Aydon182]

Monsterous torque curve.

What times were you running mate? Standard Cup is that?

 

[Deany]

Cone filter and cat back :rofl:

I did 2 15.3's at 92.odd mph, 15.9 (missed 3rd gear) and 16.7 (worst start in history)

The Rolling road at fast year was well off.

It was proved by one of my local club members, had his car RR the day before fast show at evolve in Luton and ran 217 bhp. He then took it to Fast show where it ran 165 bhp. So pissed off was he that he went to another RR in northampton ran it there and it pulled 213bhp. Took all three prints to the Fast Show RR and his money was refunded pronto and was told to disappear.

They are just there to take your money.

this is why i ran with the bonnet open

TRUTH

[john182rs]

the fan they used is a carpet dryer ie it blows warm air, bonnet open or not that fan is going to do f**k all for any readings.

 

[Gandi69]

That setup looks a joke, I'd have kept my money in my wallet

 

[RDH]

Did people actually pay money to do that? Seriously? I'd have looked at that setup and turned straight around.

Everyone with a 1.6 says 'its rapid for it's engine size'.

Did you ever have a go against a 106 gti or a Saxo VTS ?

lol a lad who used to be on here had a ridiculous vts engined vtr (same thing i know) that was on some silly horsepower with just a cage and seats inside... apparently it ate standard 182s lol

 

[john182rs]

Just out of interest, how much did you pay for this run?

 

[JamesWilson]

35 of my hard earned, wish I'd never
