24'700 miles, 54 plate, standard engine with a bottom end rebuild in 2008 at 9000 miles.
Best run was 366.9bhp at the fly with peak torque at 340lb. 2 other runs were 358 & 359 so more than happy. This confirms my last service where I had zero shim adjustment and perfect compression.
Just thought I'd share anyhow - I'll try and get the charts scanned at some point.

Phenomenal numbers for a 3.6.

Especially the torque which is much higher than a standard 4.0

Thanks - I was ecstatic myself, the torque is actually between 330 and 340 but closer to the higher. As for the power, I'm chuffed to say the least.

340lb/ft torque is just simply not right for a 3.6 - sorry. That's the sort of torque a 4.3 / 4.5 SP6 is putting out and what you might get from a standard 4.2/4.5 AJP8. My 3.6 RR makes between 364bhp-370bhp and 285lb/ft - 303lb/ft.

Quite frankly dyno results are so variable as to almost render them meaningless when comparing results between cars unless the cars being compared all ran on the same dyno on the same day.

There can't be THAT much of a differenece!

Even so, very healthy number, even if it was reading high it looks as though you have an engine in it's peak!
