Rstuner, few questions.

[dajones]

Keep looking at this unit and always tempted.

Anyone have one for a 200?
Are there many maps available for the 200? (I see one online)
That one map i did see, its for 197/200 how can they share a map?
And finally,
In real everyday terms what improvements where had over standard?

I would only consider a custom map done with a rolling road, I took my 197 to rs tuning and they did a good job. The benefits are very much dependent on what the car has had done to it. The more that has been done the bigger the gain from remapping.

1*2 owners rate the RS tuner unit , doesn't seem too popular with the 197/200 crowd

That's what I was thinking. There's got to be a reason?

There are a few of us here in Australia who have them.

I have one, don't regret the purchase at all. The map that was emailed out to me made a difference. Then when Henk came out to do custom tuning at a dyno, those tunes made an even bigger difference.

My max kW went from 112 to 119, and my torque curve also increased.

Is that @ the wheels? I only ask at that works out about 160bhp after the map - a little on the low side for flywheel figures. But then your graph shows the torque at the flywheel?

 

[travishumphery]

That's kW at the wheels. Torque I'm not too sure actually, I had always assumed it was at the wheel until you pointed that out.

 

[antnee]

I think torque measurements are always are the fly, but power can be at wheels or fly

 

[The ANT]

The bhp is calculated from the torque, so if its bhp at the wheels then the torque must be too.
Bhp is calculated by:
(Torque lb/ft × revs)÷5252=bhp

That's why on those charts the bhp and torque figures overlap at 5252 rpm.
