Here's my Dynolicious run post remap with the TC switched off:

I think I need to adjust my drive-train losses as it came out at 234 HP, which is obviously wrong! (I've just put in the avg of 17% - does anyone have any better ideas?).

Having said that the time/speed should still be pretty accurate, and i did get a result of 171 HP pre remap with an extra passenger in the car.

To summarize:
It is a well-known fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.

To summarize the summary:
Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

To summarize the summary of the summary:
People are a problem.

4th gear 60-140:



Windows movie maker times:

60-100: 5.5 seconds

60-120: 9.4 seconds

60-140: 15.0 seconds

Obviously will be quicker starting in 3rd providing the change of gear is smooth but it wouldn't hook up!

Nope, just going by what other people have said and book figures etc.

IIRC Mr Magoo weighed his and it came out around there.

Best to weigh it. Mine was around 1400kg as standard, weighed on an axle weigher. That was with a few work items(work boots and high viz), half a tank of fuel and me in it.
Public weighbridge will let you weigh it usually, just ask but don't get a printout as some charge for that.
