bhp

[vikingboy]

I have a jcw 2005 210 bhp that I have had for 3 weeks.

I took it to a rolling road and it was showing only 183 bhp @ fly and 160 bhp @ wheels?

This seems low to me ??

I would of thought 200 - 210 @ fly and around 175-180 bhp @ wheels?

Any ideas?

Cheers

Should be more than that... But know of quite a few that hover around the 198bhp mark...

[vikingboy]

Cheers that what I thought?

What should it be @ wheels do you think?

Its going back to BMW on wed to be checked over etc.

Get them to check he ECU map... A friend of mine has a 210 but it didn't have a JCW map...

A lot of the JCW 210s seem to RR @ around the 195 at the fly mark. The 200 seems to RR at not far from the same.

185 seems a bit low, but this could be because the place your using is not got good fans, the S needs lots of cold air to simulate a real life conditions test and many RR don't get enough air into the engine and over the struggling stock IC to simulate higher speed and open air road conditions.

Personally I have never seen a JCW do over 200 on a rolling road and cant even remember seeing one over 190. Why is probably the question we should be asking! Is it because they are very rich? Incorrect mapping for the enlarged injectors?

Forgot to ask the obvious did you have the bonnet open? What make of dyno ?

[vikingboy]
