Ah, didn't know which model he had.
oh and at 240 on standard turbo!
Here smartass, I'm only repeating what I was told.

I've seen 240 on a standard petrol cupra turbo, but not on a derv.
It'd probably explode into a cloud of money
that's what i'm thinkin.... no expert on TDi, but got a fair few mates with 1.9 TDis (in ibiza, fabia and golfs). and they seem to manage say 180ish before goin down the route of a bigger/different turbo....
as said, no expert (i'm more 1.8t man), but 200 seems too much.... oh, the claim off 365ft/lb or what ever is tosh

can you not read a graph ?
that is peak torque but when its at peak power the torque it 312........

Yes but 365 ib/ft? Sound too high surely, based on the mods you have.
Out of curiosity, was the run done in 3rd gear???
You're doin 73.49mph 3,543rpm. Rolling Roads should be done in 4th gear (as any decent tuner would know). And if in 4th gear, at that RPM, I'd est. that the car should be doin 90ish. Thus meaning this graph was done in 3rd gear, but the RR was probably set up for a 4th run.... Which gave a silly high torqure figure
edited for accuracyi'm not even going to bite to that sherlock.....
but as you said you're more of a 1.8t guy
tBlimey, you like to have a dig don;t ya.
Maybe you should just stick to 1.8t's as they must talk a bit rougher and tougher over there
the guys already said he's not overly sure on the reading, but he's happy with the car as it is.
edited for accuracy
yeah, a 1.8t guy with a lot of friends with 1.9 TDis (Tom, Ant, T. Spark, Adam Kelly and others with golfs, skodas etc), So I kinda pick up on things
Not only that, but I don't need to be a DERV expert to know that at 3,543rpm in 4th gear you should be doing around 85-90mph, not 73.49. Thus indicating this run was done in 3rd gear.... Thereby, giving a high torque figure which is false. And seeing as BHP is calculated from the torque (again, common knowledge amongst enthusiasts, nothing to do with what engine or fuel type I drive), that means your BHP figure is also incorrect
