Re: Re: what torque?

nope - i swear it aint on the site i have checked over and over. its the same as coupe 20V i guess but cant find that either!!
 
Re: Re: Re: what torque?

as of last week mine is pulling 150.4 lbft torque at 4948 RPM
thats with a superchip and putting out 156 bhp but still a good guide for you
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

cool. has the chip moved the figure up the rev range or is the figure higher than the 155 anyway? i'm still none the wiser really!
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

130lb ft at 3750 for the 147 and 139lb ft at 3750 for the 155
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

4948RPM? Is that correct or a typo? Peak torque should be between 3 and 4k.
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Tom he writes he has a superchip in it...

So perhaps the torque has been moved up somewhat...
Mine standard was around 4400 RPM...
Seems quite impressive over 150 lbft torque when standard is 130 just with a superchip though...
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Yeah but it should not move it THAT far :)
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Dont forget this is a Rolling Road though, so give or er give 10% ;) lol!

There should be a 6-8bhp gain and 6-8lb ft on a petrol, you wouldnt gain much more. However that rpm figure worries me as it points to some sort of error with the RR as the torque should not move 1000rpm on 608lb ft!

A before fit really needed to be taken on the same RR for comparison. I made a mistak eof using test date from one week to another week in pre and post tuning and the damn car was slower after the tuning. We then detuned it and found the car to be 2 seconds slower than it was the previous week.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

it's obviously only accurate as far as the info they gave, was done on a dyno plotter, and yeah it gives about 130 at 4000rpm but keeps pulling to peak at 4984

I want to die peacefully in my sleep like grandpa, not screaming like the passengers in his car!
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

I just think is amazing it has pulled the toque range up 1000 RPMs... I have the same result in my 1.8 AFTER ECU+cams...
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Peak torque will move up when you change the cams but it should not move that much just by chipping.

My guess is the ignition and fueling in the midrange are not right.
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

i know it pinks slightly at the low end and the power curve is not at all smooth, a proper remap is required and planned

Ah, its running lean then. Nuff said.
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

What dows pink slightly at low end means?? :)
And do you have a printout of your values you can maybe post? Would like to compare with mine...
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Pinking - preignition

down low - low revs :)
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

HeHe

Thx Tom
but how the hell you notice if there is preignition?
What are the "symptoms"??
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

Loss of power and an odd 'tinkling' or 'pinging' noise under acceleration.
 
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: what torque?

ok. so it peaks around the same rpm as the 155? i guess. i hear the 147 is more tune-able than the 155. why is this???
