Winter RR day @ Motoscope on Saturday 29th January 2011 - 9am arrival please

A 197 making 197 is odd as they actually produce 178bhp in stock form, 197 is just a name. Same as the 172, its widely accepted and aknowledged that this engine makes 160ish standard.
Odd way that they do things in France :signLOL:
chungster:
now that ^^^ explains my recent runs between a MAHA dyno (similar to Dastek in how they work I reckon) and SRR's DD dyno.
Wheel power figs were believable...but the Flywheel bhp of the MAHA dyno was bit too much for it to be accurate.
:happy2:

One thing I do know is that the Reno engine are known for bein way below or way over what the say as on the 197 forum some make 140 some make 190 same with the 172 they are shockin with the consistency!! So happy days for some and not for others.

note to myself dont bother wasting my cash on a Dastek roller lol. Surely if they are out they should be consistently out with all the cars. Varied and random figures looks like potential operator issues to me.
@ PDT ive read about the figures on the Clio Renault Sports always under the 172/182/197/200 point on the clio forums. Its widely accepted on them. which makes them even more impressive IMO.

Exactly, Maha use a coastdown as well.
This is why Dyno Dynamics is such a massive brand and has overtaken every other dyno manufacturer, consistency and repeatable reliable results. The sooner the UK market accepts bhp@wheels the better. Gets rid of all this flywheel power rubbish which is nothing but a guess that the dyno makes (in some cases this guess is accurate, others its not)
