My Stage 1 ED30 made 296.8bhp on RS Tunings DD's, so....... should I get the same/very similar figure then at JKM (which I'm 270 miles away from) ?

....Theoretically I'd say yes. But of course there are many variable factors dependent both on the day and your car on the day. That's the trouble every time we folks have a rolling-road results discussion - There are just so many variables but it's natural to focus on our bhp numbers (we're blokes - we like our willy's!). I'll go to other r-r sessions but more for the social. I go to the same r-r (JKM) to monitor relative differences and for a health check as well as the social. Plus JKM know my individual car and I tend to trust their judgements.

why do they give away free horsepower in doggy bags do they??? someone on here with a cupra, left a previous RR day(Think it was surreys DD rollers) and went straight to another set of rollers to get new figures which were nearer to his willy waiving claims :grin: :grin:
if your car makes good figures on a DD roller, you know that your car is running well. as it happens every DD roller that i have been on makes pretty much identical figures to what i make on JKMs

Exactly.. I'm not just comparing JKM with just any other dyno, i'm also reffering to other DD rollers, which are giving sigificantly different results to what JKM's do..
Also, if a stock car makes stock results and a mapped car makes x/y/z figures on JKM's rollers, then how come at Motorscope for instance when stock cars were making stock figures (which a lot did) the mapped figures on a KO4 car were a lot higher?
I too do prefer DD rollers and have been making between 340-355bhp on them. But going off JKM's results, I doubt I would make 310bhp TBH... :ashamed: :surprised:
Hurdy:
Willy waving is what RR days are all about + the chat and to talk shop and review mods and see if you car is running okay etc etc etc :laugh:
Dyno Dynamics rollers in shootout mode should be on standard settings and this is what gives them the great consistency that everyone raves/moans about. :happy2:

if you want free hosepower you get them to loosen the dyno straps so it can ride up the rollers.
ed30
k04 vRS
thats where most of the variable come from

^^^^^^
That's why I lost around 3% power on my last ever dyno run with the ED30 as the car was strapped down soooooo tightly even the operator said I'd lose the power, but they had to jigstrap it down so it didn't run off the rollers when I had the nitrous on :chicken:
