Looks great that but might be overkill for me mate. Think I want to try out the factory air box again but I might miss the noise the ktec kit makes too much, besides anything under 10hp of a difference is impossible to feel on the road anyway. If there is any loss it would be only 2-3hp

Car made 188hp at the flywheel lol. Disaster averted I think. Although the guy testing it said to me he doesn't care what ktec claims, that induction kit is losing the car a few hp because it's not completely enclosed and its sucking in a load of warm air from the engine bay. Im tempted to go...

How much were the dampers? Any links for the front and back please?

Appreciate what you are saying lads but the ocd in me needs to establish everything is ok. One good run next Friday and il be over the moon

Well the 182 on after me made 170hp so that sounds about right. Do dynos need to be configured for each car? The car flatlining on the graph at 5k just wasn't right at all. Wish I took a photo of it.

Haven't paid a penny yet for anything, except the new spark plugs off eBay but it couldn't hurt to change them anyway. It's still going in next Friday to get tested at another place just for piece of mind.

It was in Kells yeah! I'd heard horror stories about him but to my knowledge he was the only mapper with access to a dyno at the time. What have you heard about him? A lot of people don't have a lot of nice things to say about him lol. He just seemed like he wanted to get rid of me because he...

Belfast NI mate. Distinct lack of specialists over here :(

The shock of seeing the 155 sort of threw me off asking much questions so I honestly couldn't tell you if it was at the hub or the flywheel, but il hopefully find out what's happening next week at a different place. the belts were changed before I owned the car so I don't know but il have a look...

I don't have the graph but yeah the machines were bolted to the hubs. at this stage I'm just trying to gather up things to check that could be causing a drop in power. Spark plugs, faulty manifold, belts/timing check, and maybe crankshaft sensor? Anything else?

Don't recall seeing anything mate. Can a knackered cat or manifold cause a big loss In power?

I don't know what that means foxspeed lol. All I can tell you is that on the graph the line climbed at a steady pace until 5.5k but then just a flat line for the rest of the Rev range. as for fuel up to this point the car has just been run on normal supermarket stuff, I know it's not ideal but...

It has a ktec induction kit, il check the installation again later but I'm pretty sure it's fine.

I forgot to mention that the ecu was read for error codes and there was nothing showing. The car will be going to somewhere else to be tested just in case and the guy it's going to is a lot more knowledgeable about cars so hopefully we can pinpoint something. So other than a change of spark...

As I said in the original post I drove a friends 197 later that day and the cars feel the same, they couldn't both be drastically underpowered. The car feels fine to drive, no problems. The dyno graph was showing the car dying at 5500rpm but that's just not the case on the road, you can feel the...

It done 4 runs. My friends 182 went on after and made 170

Hi everyone, new to the forum and badly need advice. Ive owned my 2008 197 for over a year and decided to get it remapped so it was put dyno'd and it only made 155hp :( naturally I didn't proceed with the remap as I want to find out what's wrong. The dyno type was the one where they remove the...
