Rolling Road, 7th Feb 2010


Recommended Posts

Thanks to everyone that came, I thought we had a good day.

 

Regardless of how accurate the rollers actually are, its a fair comparison of the cars given that they were all run in the same conditions (the Escorts that is).

 

Mine was hooked up through the OBD port too for a bit of extra info.

 

The boost peaked at 1.2 bar, held at 1.1 bar.

Wheel power was 104bhp

Engine power was 138.9

Corrected power was 147.2 bhp

Torque was 366nm (about 270 ft/lb)

 

Pretty much as expected for standard spec.

dont belive half those figures are accurate, 125bhp out of an old 1.8 zetec with no mods, some how dont seem beliveable..

 

 

as above this dont add up

we already went through this. it has pipercross induction kit, bosch super 4 plugs and dual core leads. only has 86K on it and has been perfectly looked after all its life. if you don't believe the power output that is your choice. i know it is not 100% accurate but it has to be approximately right.

Don't worry about the power or the claimed power, RR days are for the social concept. :)

woooo - my car. those leather seats add that extra horsepower you know. obvious, the 3 biggest power cars of the day (mine, trigs and lee's) all have leather interiors :D - more cow hide = more power. obvious aint it :P

i assume she won then given your drop off :P - hope that link for the leads helps btw :D

i'm sure next time, when you have it running properly you'll probably beat me. all honesty i thought i was going to have lowest power reading today given how little i've done performance wise.
