Haha I don't look like I'm enjoying myself in that one photo! I must have been trying the 'play it cool' look. Didn't succeed

Dave's ST was 293 bhp and 345 lb/ft torque.. very impressive

For a Chav mobile!!

Sorry!

Mine was 196.8 hp.

That figure for the ST is impressive! Looked awesome too - I liked it.

Here are my selection of photo's. Figures for my Fabia were down on what I expected, however what counts most of all is the spread of power/torque that the graph shows which is much more useable in real life! 169bhp / 270lbft.

At the wheels? Is it a stock 3.9 RV8? If so thats pretty good for an at the wheels figure

[V8S]

I believe this was the figure at the wheels.

Standard TVR 4 litre with a Typhoon cam (I think). It was just slightly hotter (nothing stupid) than the normal cam and fitted when the engine was rebuilt a few years ago.

When I get chance, I'll scan the readout.

The cam explains it I think. Did you have it remapped to match the cam?

[sleithykeithy]

Are you sure it was at the wheels? Normally the final figure has the transmission losses included. I will be even happier if it is at the wheels however!

Good question, don't know. I would assume it was fiddled with a bit, and the engine had a tune a few months ago. It was all sorted under insurance and I can't remember what was done. The cam was apparently one up from the standard, so I wouldn't have thought it would make THAT much difference?

I am assuming it is at the wheels. Someone else who was there who knows more might be able to shed light. Dave? Nigel?

I've never had it done before so all the terminology and the chart is a black art to me.

200 is about what I should be expecting, however, from hearing about other people getting their V8S tested.

Pretty sure all figures were at the flywheel not the wheels. Mine made 285.

[MudSkipper]

Even when being parked in with the other PH cars and next to the OH's TVR, still no one takes a picture of my car

Maybe I need more PH stickers on it for it to stand out?...3 doesn't seem to be enough

Plot would normally show at the wheels with an adjustment made for drivetrain losses to show estimated bhp at the flywheel

285bhp in a car as light as an Exige = fast.
