My standard ed30 was 198hp at the wheels......................... but since my car might be suffering from a slight problem it might be more than that.
Thanks TC :grin:, your earlier re-assurance attempt to cancel out my paranoia has not worked. I've been thinking "What did TC mean?" and "Where should I should get my car looked at?" all day today.
:santa:

True transmission loss for the MK5 is no where near that figure, its more like 8 - 12%.. Some of the American Dyno's have huge losses which make for impressive figures

Yep, a much more telling way of judging a cars power etc.. no wizardry, no smoke and mirrors.. Just set off and see how fast you can get to the other end.. :happy2:
