110 bhp originally - though I imagine most would make 100-110 \t their current age, unless modded.

112 is the standard figure.

i know there 112 standard but i just want to know what there putting out after all these years.

 

well didnt tonyD's one albet a 2.0ltr 8v put out 119bhp only awhile back? or not far off?

 

Mine made 114bhp in Westward, totally standard.

Mine put out 116bhp from a 115bhp standard engine

 

Mine made 105 at the wheels according to the dyno sheet I have here.

what torque figure did you get?

 

I'll check for you when I get home.

i wasnt far wrong!

I bought a white english reg mk2 with a dyno printout of 136.7bhp!!! bit false t thought, has a cam and a few bits though..

 

I have 2 different reading for mine from 2 different rollers.

121 at the fly wheel from one and 117 at the fly wheel from the other.

With a K&N Panel filter.

 

is 117 at the flywheel not very low??

slightly off topic but how do rollers get power at the flywheel? surely dynos can only give whp. i really know nothing about dynos though.

 

The standard figure given by VW is at the flywheel.

 

agh. didn't know that.

is that still the case with current gti's, r32s, etc.

what about when say joe power quotes gains for remapping. are they all at the flywheel.

 

Yes, unless stated at the wheels.

 

QUOTE The closest approximation is to divide whp by .85 to get approx bhp. The reverse would work for bhp to whp.

A simple formula to find the bhp/whp of a car.

 

we go of the fly wheel in ireland etc its the USA that goes of the WHP,fly hp is really guessed at by the dyno

 

thats what i figured. surely there's no fully accurate way of measurin the flywheel hp on most irish rr settups so why doesn't everyone start usin whp.

am i the only one who think hp at the flywheel is the most pointless figure to know.

Some places have started doing whp figures, A mate of mine had his skyline rr'd and got the results in whp.

 

yeah iirc the dyno over at inters was givin whp figures. although couldn't be sure. sean will let us know.

i dunno. just seems ridiculous.

 

its cause in europe from the factory all fig's are givin in fly wheel HP,in the states afiak its all Whp. hence we why take a read from the flywheel on dyno's

 

the fella at inters told me it was at the wheels.
