i probly woulda been expectin a bit more. 157 rwkw seems preety much standard.
but then again thers a whole argument about dynos only bein a tuning device not a perfect power rating instrument yada yada yada.. take it to a strip see how it goes.

Perhaps your tuner has one of those unfriendly dyno's giving lower power readings. If you take it somewhere else you may very well get a higher reading. Doesnt mean it makes more power, just dynos arent dynos. You really need a before and after reading for comparisons.

157 is pretty low, regardless of dyno for a BA manual with cams...

You've got what, 180 fwkw? You'd be after about 150rwkw from a stock manual for the dyno to be somewhat accurate.....

i was just thinkin about the time topgear had to buy an old supercar eg,ferrari somthing like that for under a set price and one of the challenges was to dyno them and find out how much power their supercar had lost over the years and it was a rediculous amount, but chances are the cars were measured at the flywheel from new, and they measured at the rears on the show, so it was all s**t rite?

yes, it was an episode full of s**t - they compared bhp new to rwhp, and then said oh how crap, i've lost XX hps!! when it reality, they were pretty close to the mark.
