Dyno'ed KW and info at the wheels

**clicht** · 03-02-2012, 09:35 AM

@VWThunder, 142 is very good...i was told that ith a k04 you could push up to 160kwatw, which is a masssive amount of power for a 1165kg car..you would easily push 1-100 under 6s.
@vwindahuse, this is great to see some actual dynocharts...thanks; but how can a car with a k04 push out 177hp atw..am I missing something, it should breach the 200hp barrier. With jut a simple chip, you can hit 160hp...

That's the trouble with comparing different Dyno's I guess.

This particular dyno has always run lower than others from what I've seen around the country. Dyno's are only really good for dyno days such as the example given to show a fair comparison between cars and also for showing incremental power improvements from more modifications. And for tuning obviously.

I think the 1/4 mile and 0-100 times are more of a fair comparison.

Personally, I hate dyno's. I hate dyno runs. I think it's pointless unless it's for tuning or personal interest in modification stages of your car not for comparing with Person A & Person B.

Yes, I'm ranting, but at the end of the day, if I have 129atw and you have 145atw, and I beat you at the quarter mile, well I get the win, and you can still have your numbers. I think this post is directed towards 'dyno queens'.

****, I'm still ranting

/rant.

hahahaha Anthony! Technically, my Mk6 GTI is quicker as it does 5.5 sec with the Stage 1 APR Tune.

So I am going to attribute you passing me at Lakeside down the straight as either

1. I was the only one to stick to the speed limit
2. You weigh a lot less than me (problem when I work in finance in a office and get fat quickly), plus I had an additional passgenger to ferry around!

Mate, you crack me up! lol.

I don't know, I should lighten up, it's Friday for goodness sakes

Here's mine (below). Mods done was:

Unitronic Stg1+
VF Engineering DV
Custom FMIC (Evo 3) and DV relocated
K&N Open Pod with Heat Shield
4Bar FPR with just cleaned injectors
ECS Stg1 Clutch Kit
2.5" Catless Downpipe

Looks like K03S isn't that much different than K04-001 except K04 able to hold boost much longer. But then I kinda fancy IHI turbo which should be more responsive, couple with the right cams it should be interesting proposition
