Had the S on a rolling road today at Lorven Performance.

The S made 127.7hp @5835rpm with torque of 140ft-lbf@3300 rpm. (at the flywheel)

Lower than I would have hoped but the guys there think that the CATs are probably choking the engine.

Fuel air mix is fine and the power curve was a nice straight line wtih no blips.

Lorven are going to decat the car for me in the near future and rerun the rolling road to make adjustments for me.


to be continued..........

That does seem awfully low...

Are you sure it wasn't at the wheels..?

Mine was about 160 Bhp and 210 lbft before having the chip treatment IIRC.

I hope all the work goes well...

Alas no it was at the flywheel.... If it was at the wheels then it wouldn't have been so bad....


Still all the more reason to get it sorted.... Having only driven my S I thought the power was how it should be.... now I know it is low I can work on it.

The guys at Lorven specialise in making things go faster so it can only get better.
