just got back from the dyno with my 'liz
Discussion
While I was preparing my Elise for registration here in Denmark (had to get it weighed and emission tested). Came in at 740kg with a full tank of gas and some stuff in the boot.
On the way home I drove to the dyno just to see if all the horses were still in there
Since it's very low we had some problems getting on the dyno,but eventually it got up there
the results :
power : 95 kW (127hp ),which is around 130bhp
torque: 175.5 Nm ( 129.3 lbs/ft )
Peak torque was at 4300,but it has the same torque at 2300, all the way up to 5700 it's above 160 Nm (110 lbs/ft) .
Only mods are a sports exhaust and the hurricane induction kit.
Coming from several Honda Civics ,some with high power engines, I'm not used to having that much torque down low. I must admit it's nice to have
That was the good part..
Apparently Mrs. Triple S' spell is still in effect here as there's been a lot of rain today. It was literally a flood. Let's just say it's very 'challenging' to drive a light rwd car when there's 10cm of water on the road
This is my first rwd car,so I don't want to push any limits until I get on a track.
And I was in a hurry to fit the soft top so it had a leak in the passenger side
It usually never leaks..Oh well..
