From what you guys are saying, Revo's claim of 260bhp from a stage 1 map seems totally unrealistic.  :indifferent:

100% unrealistic.  240Hp is normal for stage 1, 260hp normal for stage 2

Question for PDT

AMD run the cars in 5th (they say 1 gear lower than top is the best way to run them)
JKM say 4th as its the nearest 1:1 ratio
you say 3rd 

any particular reason?

Dynodynamics reccomend running a car in third gear during shootout power testing, however most fwd big power stuff does require 4th gear to get traction. The power figures rarely alter if you test a car in third then fourth, as long as the car hits full load that is.  It can vary from car to car, but 3/4 gears are normal for a dynodynamics.

so its nothing to do with gear ratio's at all?

You can achieve 250+ from a stage1 with the right map  :wink:

So because JKM read lower figures then they must be right :indifferent:

When comparing againt other cars lets say mk2 FRS with around 400hp how can a stage 2+ car with a whopping 70hp less still keep up and the weight aint that much difference  :confused:

^^^ the above is assuming JKM are perfect in every way and the max is 330hp from a K04.

The numbers or lack of just dont add up unless of course, other tuners for differnt maker of car are wrong aswell and perhaps should go to jkm for there power claims before saying the new kit for there mk2 FRS is 400hp or 300hp for a VXR etc etc etc.

Believe me when i say the difference between a 300hp VXR and a jkm confirmed 330hp stage 2+ K04 is a fair bit more than just 30hp!
