241 bhp @5500rpm - not bad for a 199+k engine with no mods ;)

Thanx :)
Need to replace the injectors - the oranges (yes - plod fitted orange injectors D'oh!) are making it run a bit lean.

I'm just pleased she didn't throw a spaz, like last time..
although, this time, she made 140bhp @ 3000 rpm instead of 205 lol

They're ALL standard engine/map from the factory, what the individual forces do with them is a different matter. There's a burgundy unmarked response car round here that is FAAAR from standard!

Thanks to "he who shall not be named" for organising the day. Not just good company, but it was an alladins cave of kit cars and alike in various states if repair(TVRs/Westfields/Ultima..etc). Plus a Norwegian BMW being converted to a full one of a kind M3 touring for export.
OK for the VAG Steve convinced me to pull off the Chip to do a pre and post result and I'm surprised at the result:
Without £5 eBay chip(Resistor)
152.6HP /229lb/ft
With chip
160.3HP /267lb/ft...!!!
So in effect different day, different rollers I've made 10BHP..
Red line Before Chip
Black line after Chip.

Great day today, great to see everyone. I'm happy with my results, after venting the bleed valve back into the intake, instead of to atmosphere, and turning the bleed valve one more click, I got 235 BHP and 292lb/ft !! power's still dropping off after 4000rpm even though it holds boost up to the redline, so I'm guessing I'll have to invest in a remap.

259bhp, 537 lb/ft and yes, the angle gear collar is fookt, so fwd minus 10% for the rear gear trying to spin up.

How has the jag managed to almost double its torque? Thats a hell of a lot for an old jag with only 259bhp.
Post 584996 by timbo_1975 on 2013-03-16 20:06:43
537 ft lbs?! lol
Since they are advertised at 300bhp, but usually only make 280ish, it couldve done better?

I'm sorry to say but i think theres been a miss calculation there. I don't even think they had more than 300lb/ft when new, so unless its had some major mods done.........
Post 585008 by timbo_1975 on 2013-03-16 20:13:13
Should be in the region of 295ft lbs between 2000 & 5000rpm.

Just been informed that the Dyno guy said that because of the interesting autobox situation, you can pretty much half the graph reading.

Just don't want any kind of mis-communication mate ;)
(loving the new sig quote Liam ;))
I just want to add, aside from the dyno stuff and who was and wasn't there, I've had a pretty crap few weeks and today saw me laugh more in a few hours than I have in the last month, with some great friends. I've seen my car do really well, and other, really nice cars doing their thing. And even though England got raped by the Taffys (deservedly too - fair play Wales - you did really well) I'm feeling better now than I have for a while - still on a high from seeing my 200K mile plodder make stock horses and doing me proud.

Think theres a bit on the second episode when they're waiting for hammond and they can hear a car in the distance and clarksons like "is that the sound of an approaching moron??" lol

Nope - she didn't know how much fuel was in there to start with so I gave it some on the way home, embarrasing a vxr, 328 and 95 aero in the process. (I won't mention any speeds 'cos I wasn't in a private potatoe field)

yeah you've got high gearing, but do you have the power to match it?
286bhp and 325lb/ft mine had as standard and 155mph with the limiter. My remap doesn't give me much more, about 10-15bhp and another 25lb/ft. But, more importantly, it removes the limiter as well ;-)

[QUOTE=LiamT4;585140]Yep 14.43@99mph was my best and considering a manual s60r should be quicker than my auto rwd off the line, that must mean mines quicker once on a roll :-)[/QUOTE]
Good time that, same as mine just slightly slower on the terminal speed. How do the 540's compare to the E39 M5's once on a roll?

Hello mate.
To answer your question, they don't compare lol
from say 20mph-70mph its probably not any quicker than an 850R with an off the shelf remap/chip. Once past 90mph it just keeps going though, designed for cruising up and down ze autobahns all day, so pretty decent at those speeds..............but quite a way off an e39 m5 ;-)
