The tfsi engine is considered one of the most conservative engines ref power output.
I've seen every single rr I've looked up on the internet and read in magazines that the tfsi tends to output 10% over factory claims. JKM is the only rr I've seen get such low figures. Its the same across europe and the states.
I find it hard to believe that this massive spread of results which run at almost exactly the same as the superchips rr are incorrect. I'm more inclined to believe jkm are very conservative. The fact the r32's and diesels ran as expected only makes me believe its not a question of the rr accuracy but the conservative claims vw put on the tfsi engines.
At the end of the day, the results matched exactly what all the different tuners claimed for their outputs.
Also remember, official figures are based on 95 ron fuel and vw state the fsi engine will produce more power on 98 ron and above.
This also ties to the fact that every single magazine out there have tested performance figures much quicker than the again conservative figures from vw.
VW state 0-60 at 7.2 secs for a manual gti
The slowest test ive seen is at 6.7 sec's with the majority around 6.5.

I agree with this post 100% mate. I agree there were some slightly odd results but for the most part I think they were preety accurate. I am not knocking JKM in any way but the results on Saturday preety much mirror results from car's in different states of tune from all over the world. I had a chat with Mark from VWR and he mentioned that the rollers were spot on, VWR dyno their race cars here so they have to be accurate otherwise they would be going against the rules in the series their cars race in. :happy2:

i believe they were right aswell, but theres just a few people results that dont make sence.
Chris with 296bhp?? :confused: and caz with 18 bhp over in her oilburner? :confused: so it wasnt just the fsi's?
