very true. He is sourcing an LSD so that will definitely help out. But his rims are 18x7's, so i'm guessing the tyres would be 215's. IMO not enough width for that sort of power, need 225's at least. Wider wheels and tyres needed for that though.... plus spacers. Will have to wait for the loaded videos to see the traction abilities of this beast.

It should definately make for interesting viewing.
.... but look at his figures with just his sourced chip, they are far over any of our chip figures. Just a very impressive ECU remap i think.
and bearing in mind all dyno's read differently. In another car, I've had 15kw differences on Brisbane dyno's (Northside 4X4 at caboolture Vs Godzilla at Tingalpa).

** All information I provide is probably incorrect until validated by someone else **
Guy's APR K04 Polo made 151kw atw on 98 with all the extra kit on. Made about 165kw atw with race fuel. The APR Polo had a similar exhaust manifold (not the thin stock one) to Plautos'.
I'd bet its the dyno more than anything else. K04 with goodies should do anywhere between 140kw (seen on Ralphk's car) to 170kw atw.
Unless they use small horses (ie ponies) instead of big horses in Brazil
Could also very well be a calculated flywheel figure as I have seen dynos attempt to do that as well and then 186kw is spot on for a K04 car with mods.
