Took car to WRC at Silverstone, yesterday.. these are the guys that dyno the cars for Evo magazine, and probably have the most advanced and accurate dyno in the country.!
Very impressed with figs, car is standard and running 97 Octane BP petrol.
ECU is progressive, therefor the harder you drive, the more power generated.
I spent the whole weekend at Spa and the Ring, Spa was bone dry and did about 40 laps.
Also have my dyno graph for my old GT3 Mk2, which was standard, apart from Fabspeed rear boxes.. worth about 3bhp ish.

The one fact, that has not been discussed.. is the ability of the ECU on the GT3 to adapt itself to previous driving conditions.
The fact that I had tracked my old GT3 regularly prior to dyno day, and also had done a whole weekend track and hard driving (170 mph back from the Ring
).. also 20 laps around Silverstone GP half hour before dyno on RS.
The harder you drive the car, the faster it gets..

Not only have you got a good one it looks like the best I have not heard of any RS's making more than 408bhp {which was not standard} on that Dyno and that torque curve shows power right through the rev range, are you sure its not had 100 cell racing cats fitted & a remap to find those figures?

Cheers mate..
Have spoken to the 1st owner, who bought car as investment.
Car was picked up from factory in Apr 04, did 2k miles in 1st month, and over last year has been stored. I bought car with 3k miles, harnesses and fire extinguisher, still in original boxes.
Maybe the later RS cars were given a stronger ECU map from the factory.! ?
Should be easy to take Glenn, down the Hanger straight on Friday..
