Pretty much all the Volkswagens make more than stated, since 2010 they have upped the power on most and kept the numbers down.

Ours is rated at 132kw crank - I'll have to see if I have a 155 standard dyno somewhere - otherwise a GTI 155. Mind you, I don't know if the DQ500 has more drag or less!

If I can overlay a few standard graphs, that gives a good indication of where it sits. Needless to say the thing is a bullet already, and thats just at stage 1 level.

Tomorrow is front brakes & looking into the exhaust......
