Yep, good day out, sorry I couldnt stay longer. A bit disspointed that on closer inspection it appears i only made 113kw and 154HP, not the 164HP and 123kw written on my dyno sheet... (That should make Chris happier)

Thanks to Brendan and the other AussieVW people for orgainisng the day.

Ha ha
Thats more like it. I was hoping they would be closer given they are both pretty much the same engine.

I had a closer look and if you go by the scale on the left (KW) it would be like 117kw. The peak is a fair bit above the 115KW line. But 115kw = 156 PS
and shows as less than 150 PS on these charts.

Can someone tell me what the Red MK4 Golf GTI power figures were and what mods done?
Just interested to know!

Sorry I couldn't attend - looks like a great day had by all though!

Mk4 GTI: 111KW/148 PS
Engine mods: APR chip, BMC air filter, Forge DV.
2kw less than the APR chipped Polo GTI. Not bad for a 6 year old car

Well done! That is a fantastic result!!!

Well, im still dissapointed seeing as other polos with the APR chip have gone over 120wkw....Maybe another dyno pull or 2 could have yielded a better peak.

Mate dont worry about it. IMHO Different dynos give different readings. I knew a guy who took his car to 3 different dynos in a day and got a 20kw difference. Dynos are a tuning tool not a definitive power reading.

[MINTpolo]

Yeah, i know that. I would probably have been better off not knowing however...
