lcr,how to get more power?

[richybigman]

Mine was rolling roaded at JKM in portsmouth, there were 4 LCR's on that day all with Stage 2 Revo and all hit aroung the 240bhp mark. I had mine in for diagnostics after the previous RR day when i only got 236bhp but they found nothing wrong with the car. All the valves, maf and boost leaks were checked and all came back fine. When mine was in for diagnostics they said they got 257bhp out of it which is strange.

You'll get more out of it, if you can dial it in better for the boost and fuel timing. Find someone with an SPS3 who is willing to help you do some logging with VAGCOM. As long as the car is in tip top shape, ie no dodgy MAF or boost leaks, you should be seeing higher figures than that.

See Kev's guide - http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=89479

As long as those figures qouted by P Torques rollers indicate flywheel power and not at wheels, because if they are at wheels then its not too bad. But then no way is Lee's running 271 atw.

well i assume they was at the wheel
and Empi5 has the figures on tape

My example was used that the figures for the other car were no too bad if it was atw, but its obvious it isn't as your produced 270 plus.

If they were classed as at the wheels figures, your delivering like 290 plus at the flywheel. Far beyond what your turbo can possibly deliver. I do have a wee bit of experience with Leon R's Been there done that, and bought the t-shirt.

270 fly is not too shabby at all, and a good result, as much as you can expect really without going for a bigger turbo. Its what mine would do quite happily.

fair comment as it was my first RR
