I'd love it!  :happy2:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Had the Polo on the Rollers again today.

Firstly I'll start with an apology - the first dyno result was 213bhp UNCORRECTED and should have been 206bhp  :ashamed: In my rush to post up I took a pic off the dyno before adjustment.
Never mind eh!

So onwards, and the dyno plots today are all comparative on setting 2 and the run today was on OEM intake and full turbo-back exhaust, whereas stage 1 was done with just NGK plugs and setting 2.

As you can see from the photo below there is a decent difference between stage 1 and stage 2.

Re-adjusted for my error.....

Stock to stage 1 gave an increase of 27.8bhp and 44.7lbft
Stage 1 to stage 2 gave an increase of 14bhp and 9.5lbft
Stock to stage 2 gives an increase of 41.8bhp and 54.2lbft = an increase of 23.4% in power and 30.4% in torque.

As you can see from the graphs it is a different beast to drive now, with stage 2 torque being higher than stock peak torque all the way from 2100rpm to 6000rpm  :evilgrin:
Also stage 2 power is greater than peak stock power all the way from 4100rpm to letting off at the pedal on the dyno at 6500rpm.  :happy2:

The downside is I need an intercooler and intake for sure as the car gets heatsoaked after just a few dyno runs.


Golf R gone.

That's a tasty increase for Stage 2 John. Especially on a 1.4, 180bhp car..  :happy2:

Great results, John  :happy2:

Intake + clloer should hopefully see another 10hp  :evilgrin:
