Had the 182 on a rolling road, flat spot?

[Kristophh]

I'll stick the graph up tomorrow, but here's the details;

bhp@flywheel = 171.2
bhp@wheels = 143.8
torque (Nm) = 198

This was consistent over three runs.

Flat spot at 2250-2500rpm, drops a fair bit and picks back up.
Can't say it's that noticeable, but I'm probably used to it.

Had a service a 3k ago, exhaust from cat back isn't standard, an that's about it.

I know it could be anything, but any suggestions?

I'll get it back on after I've made some changes. (Handy having a RR at work!)

Sounds compeltly normal, RS's are a bit strange under 4000rpm for a number of reasons, i wouldnt worry.

 

[Kristophh]

Good to know, thanks.

I'll get the graph up tomorrow anyway.

Figures sound completely normal mate.

can you feel it on the road? if not it's not a flat spot, it's just a dip. It's pretty normal

 

[Kristophh]

Nah, can't say I've ever noticed it. And to be honest, if I want to go somewhere quick, I'm going to be dropping down a gear. I've not seen any graphs from standard 182's before, I'm guessing this looks pretty similar?

Seems about right that figure plus looks like a pretty smooth graph

We had a RRday on saturday and the majority of the figures were around the same!! give or take a few
