I had my lcr checked on a rolling road yesterday to see how my car was running after stage 1 jabba remap.

this was my results.

Jabba claim 256-265 bhp & 265-287 torque

my bhp came out 245 wich is low to there claim but the torque is around 275 which is within there claim.

Those figs are basically absolutely fine. Different days and different dyno's will always give different results. Lot of people including in this thread chase the numbers but frankly that is a mugs game. If car basically sound it will do what it does for those mods and that's it, it won't massively vary from one car to another unless you obviously have an issue of some sort. One car one day/dyno giving reading of 270 may well give 240 on a different day/dyno, that's what they call dyno lottery!!

Realistically [not number happy dyno] stage 1 will be max about what you have and it will often have no lesser performance to those claiming much higher figures.

To give you an idea my stage 2 was 250 ish on dyno i have used ever since [now 400 ponies] but on other dyno's my stage 2 was as people would expect anything between 280/290, all i know is it felt damn quick at that and so i wasn't disappointed to get a reading of 250 and told no particular reason for it other than different day/dyno.

Garage tell me some dyno's would read my car up to 10% more than i have now but i believe the existing figure to be accurate so am not going to go chasing the numbers for the sake of it like many do [or bragging rights down the pub].

To back up what i've been told a guy on here [readers thread] called buchbdm400 [or something like that? ] has EXACTLY the same car/mods as me, i mean literally identical but he claims 444hp 5-!0% variance at any power level is not unusual at all.

thanks all, ive had a new turbo now, will hopefully see soon if that fixed the dip if the dip fairly early on has gone which it feels fine driving ill be happy.

beware of boost spike on intial spool. Do you have a gauge in the car to keep an eye on it?
