Dyno at MRC today

[wellzieRS4]

Had the car dyno`d at MRC today here are the results, my car is stock apart from milltek cat back and BMC filter

[HYFR]

nice ... 390PS ... more or less where mine is !

plenty quick enough

i recon on a real road we would get back some of the 30PS lost from factory rated, and the rest we wouldnt even notice

what carbon ?

[wellzieRS4]

Yeah i was happy no vacuum leaks, apart from secondary air valve a bit temperamental, they said i had quite a lot of low down torque so they said the kick at 5k might not be so noticeable as some, but its defo there

Good result for a stock engine. You must redline it regularly!!

[wellzieRS4]

all the time, dont you ?

[Steve_C]

Only in the first 4 gears.

[wellzieRS4]

True LOL i might have some work done soon maybe remove pre cats and a remap, not sure about carbon clean tho, i don't doubt Doug's work, top boys down at mrc

[sonny]

Good results, what is the age and mileage of car?

[edge]

Nice results!

Nice one Wellzie,
Very similar graph to mine before the mods (no Milly or filters on mine then).

Different car after the mods

do think its worth the money is it that much better

[Steve_C]

Remap is definitely worth it IMO.

[ShaneyB]

Hmm,
Is it worth the money?

If you've got the cash then I wouldn't hesitate. The guys at the MRC dyno day last weekend said mine sounded completely different to stock, much throatier. Not quite a Milly but not far off. Torque limiter removed, top speed limiter removed, 50bhp more and loads more torque. Had a few issues with vaccum leaks but well worth it IMHO.

I might go for remap, gutted pre cats and MRC filter,do you think that will make a good difference? do u think i would need carbon clean and polish seeing as mine isn't that far off what it should be producing?, i spoke to them about cold air feed ect but i'm not to keen on deleting the rad i like to keep things how they are

Mine was getting 385ps before the work and now back to 442 so actually nearer 60bhp gain. I'd imagine you'll be about the same and the clean can't do any harm. I couldn't decide if I should go Polish & Port or Milltek but I 100% made the right (expensive) decision.

We're not miles apart if you want to meet up one weekend?
