rolling road figures!

[carlisle pete]

hi guys i had my cupra on the rollers on monday. its been remapped with forge fmic, air filter and jetex cat back exhaust... the readings were

205.7 bhp which is ok im happy with..
but the torque figures were a bit strange..
my peak torque was 277.5 lb between 2500-300rpm

how ever at 4474 rpm where my bhp was at its peak my torque was 241.3??

does anyone else think my peak torque is rather high for standard ko3?? comments are always welcome...
the guy who owned the rollers seemed to think my boost controller cud be sticking causing it to over boost? could this be right?

What map is it?

 

[carlisle pete]

i dunno dude thats the thing it had the remap done when i bought it.. i aint seen point in changing it til i get gt28rs or ihi conversion! runs fine no probs at all. jus not sure about that torque!! damn thing! as cupra_matt is a friend of mine and is runnin gt2x at 284bhp and 296lb torque mine jus seems to high

 

[Cupra_Wayne]

It's all about the shape of the graph/line. Yours may peak high and then drop quickly (not hold) which could explain the high figure. Would need to see the graph. Get it up loaded!!!

 

[acidstrato]

it is slightly optimistic but iv seen higher

iv alwas believed regardless of RR results that 250odd (lb/ft) is the highest the stock turbo is capable of

i would say the power figure is spot one, its certainly in the ballpark for the mods you have

spike...?

 

[AndyHazza]

Does seem a bit too high really.
Could be a bad rev pick up.

 

[carlisle pete]

il get graph up asap! it shows boost is kinda all over place a bit! as i sed my torque was 241.3 lb/ft at 4474 rpm where my highest bhp figure was? i duno guys i aint that mecahnically minded to be honest!

 

[Essex_Cupra]

Well to put in comparison my ko3s made about 270lb torque. You can compare to mine if you want. I also have a graph when i just had a revo stage one but only made 232lb torque then.

 

[carlisle pete]

cheers dude so the 241 lb/ft is more realistic i feel jus want to know y it peaked so high early on!

my wifes ibiza on revo stage 1, no fmic etc made 200bhp/260lbft - I'l dig out the plots, but it didn't nose dive, and the boost wasn't set that high (and it was running tesco 95)

what sort of torque can you expect form a K03s mapped by jabba?

 

[carlisle pete]

hmm maybe its could be true then... it was runnin shell v power fuel. il get graph up asap for ya all to look at

 

[MR Ibiza Cupra]

As badger 5 said ''Spike'' If your car uses revo software it runs a high over boost setting which gives you such a high torque figure. For example... your car my run 1 bar of boost constantly, but when you floor the pedal it will give you a quick over boost of say 1.5 bar for a quick second to get the car moving. Thats probably why uve made so much torque.

what sort of torque can you expect form a K03s mapped by jabba?

It varies a lot. Depends on mods and the car itself. Expect to see anything from 250 - 290lbft.

 

[carlisle pete]

mr ibiza cupra! hmmm this cud be the case! as it did peak at 277 early the dropped to 241! seems i may have and answer?

 

[PAUL HEV]

where did you have it rollong roaded at?

good figures though mate

 

[Essex_Cupra]

The graph will explain all i'm sure!

its a local tuning spot near me called jdm tuning or jdm motorsport not sure off top of my head! as im still at work at the minute!! he had a standard mini cooper on befor me and it was 0.2bhp out from wat the book says on a cooper! so they r quite accurate! still waiting on him emailing me the graph but will post up as and wen i get it
