found this internet site interesting.  http://www.rri.se/index.php?DN=29

656 different vehicles, 1 dyno (hub dyno so accurate),

and comparison graphs of manufacturer stated output Vs actual output.  Quite alot of surprising on the outputs and confirming what people thought about the likes of the focus RS etc

all the below are with reference to the manufacturer claims

Golf edition 30 8 Hp under
Golf GTI 5Hp under
mk6 golf GTI TSI 5hp up
Golf R32 23Hp under
Leon cupra 11hp under
Octavia vRS 2Hp under
Scirroco R  2Hp up
scirroco TSI 8Hp under
Audi S3 2Hp under
Audi TT 3.2 S tronic 30Hp under

so the TFSi engines seem to be pretty much on the money.  the V6 not so much.

now for the other hot hatches
 
Focus RS is 20hp under
Civic type R is 16hp
Meganne RS250 18hp
Focus ST is 9hp under
08 impreza STI 30Hp under
Astra VXR  11Hp under
Vectra VXR 38Hp under
Mazda 3 MPS is bang on the money,
Mazda 6 MPS is 7Hp above
Nissan 350Z is 34Hp under

can you tell im bored :grin:
