He said at the end they got 273bhp, does anyone else feel they could've gotten a bit more, considering all the new mods? I thought that's power you can get with just a downpipe and tune, or am I wrong in thinking that?
But I'm coming from a car that dyno'd at 232hp with just an intake remapped to 'stage 1+', so by no means am I one to talk about getting less power than expected. Just want to know what you guys think.

I think thats about right for the mods still on a KO3.

Tbh I lost interest in the lap time vs Mk8 Golf R when they told us it was only a 30 second ish lap around half of Curborough, what's the point really? The fact that they're timing with an iphone over such a short 'lap' introduces such a big margin for error that it's a pointless exercise. The modifying has been entertaining though and I suppose them giving the MK5 some publicity won't hurt our cars residual values :happy2:

Nah, it's about right for everything thrown at a K03. Until someone actually removes the engine and measures it properly on a DIN certified engine dyno with industry standard loads, I will always call BS on rolling roads and hub dynos :grin:
