I've just had my supercharged IS200 on a power run to determine the bhp and torque settings. From reading previous posts i was expecting in the region of at least 203bhp.
The results are:
Maximum power speed: 6841 Rpm (117.2Mph in gear used)
Power at flywheel (corrected): 183.1 Bhp (DIN 70020)
Power at flywheel (measured): 178.9 Bhp
Power at wheels: 137.2 Bhp
Power loss (transmission,tyres,etc): 41.7 Bhp
Maximum torque speed: 5137 Rpm (88.0 Mph in gear used)
Maximum engine torque (corrected): 161.6lb ft
Maximum road speed reached in test: 117.2 Mph
Maximum engine speed reached in test: 6841 Rpm
Min ambient temperature: 25 Deg C
Max ambient temperature: 25 Deg C
Barometric pressure: 998 mb
On the graphs shown the bhp graph was quite smooth but the torque graph is up and down all over the place.
So does this mean my supercharger is only performing to about HALF its potential?
The guy who done the test reckons there is an engine management problem because of how the graph is all up and down.
Is this right? How do i fix it to be performing at the correct bhp and torque ? I dont really want to spend a lot more money to get the performance that i already should have. Is it a faulty chip?
Can someone who understands these things please help?
Thanks,
Adie
