standard 182 power?

[tomjames69]

hi there ive had my ff 182 for 4 months ish now and it came with a dyno graph that reads 136.4 WHP and 213 NM of torque does this seem about right?
its an 04 plate fsh ans 52k on the clock so well looked after

 

[domlebo70]

Pretty much bang on the money. Torque figure looks out.

 

[Gouldy]

136 at the wheels is low. it should be about 140 to 145 ish.

Timing is probably out.

 

[tomjames69]

Hmmm timing out? Ill have to check that out, it has got a crappy open filter so i guess thats losing me a few bhp this dyno graph is from 2009 before i had the car its from a company called S.M.R.C

There is a lot of talk about timing being out. How do you tell if it is out? Is it obvious.

 

[tomjames69]

just looked through the service history and the cambelt and aux belt where changed by 519 automotive who ive noticed is a trader on here so doubt its out must just be the fact i have that terrible powertec open filter soaking up all that hot air! haha

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

Yea that filter will do nothing but lose you power lol v6 airbox all the way.

 

[tomjames69]

yea thats the first thing on my list haha! ive heard that a ph1 airbox is pretty good too?

i lost 10bhp with induction kit to a standard airbox, same rollers, same day..
