Torque is very low. Mine made 242ft-lb in standard trim :think:

I'll wager there is nothing wrong with the car, and this is just a classic example of Dyno Lottery™

I always think it's better to get a graph done on a RR day with other people. As you have lots of different cars and many cars of similar spec to run against. So if they are all similar figures give or take, you know +- where your at.

When you run on a RR without anyone putting their car on the same rollers under the same conditions. A RR may over read or under read depending on the operator and conditions, and you have no basis with which to reach any kind of real conclusion.

Seems to have answered your question then, Dyno Lottery™

If other cars were down, then you've reasonable evidence to indicate that's why yours is down.

Depends how you look at it. Some cars see more on other rolling roads, some see less.

I go back to the fact that it's a classic Dyno Lottery™ example. ;)
ohh well, i dont need a bit of paper to tell me how fast this car is ! i know its rapid :)

Most cars seem to make around 260bhp after 800-1000 miles.
As every other car was down on power, it makes sense to assume that yours has more power than your graph suggests.
Your torque was also way out.

Here's mine following CC remap. Very impressed with the results, it drives like a different car. Stock was 167.6 BHP 237 Torque

My stock altea fr ran 186.6hp and 273lbft. Other cars that ran that day got round about what was expected. From other vag 170pd's Ive heard of they always run higher than expected. What miles are on yours?

Heard on the grape vine that you should expect 242whp on a Standard Leon Cupra with a 3" Milltek downpipe and cat back with oval exit ;).

Mine was on about 5K when I got those figures (167bhp/237 lbft)

there was only about 7.5k on mine. Makes me wonder if perhaps yours read low the first run for a reason? To make the increase seem more substantial perhaps?

same dyno's? same day? if not you're not using the same ruler.

Im not trying to accuse the tuner of anything, but it is easy to adjust the conversion figures for flywheel reading.

The best, and most honest way is to compare whp figures.
