I don't see why some are trying to p*** on your chips, and have to pick holes in other peoples happiness


OP At the end of the day if you are happy then that is all that matters.
great car mate...enjoy it.

Thanks for posting the graph

I have a rica with no stickers at all

If you don't understand then it might be better to ask rather than dismiss it, you are wrong.

dont really get your point mate, i took it to another dyno and made 311bhp and 286whp a bit more accurate wouldnt you say with a 19t running 1.3 bar?

1.1 bar is right for what it should be boosting to with a rica but that figure of 203whp doesnt equate to 1.1 bar mate ask anyone on vpc, 203 whp is roughly standard

The volvo boost gauge goes about 3 mm out of the white to the right when my other gauge says 1.1.

Im wondering if the Dyno is incorrect ..could this be a possiblilty ?

The car feels like a rocket ship...I think i will by a standard ECU and try it .

if it feels like a rocketship and it would at 1.1 bar then its ok but that dyno result is wrong, it measured mine at 198whp and i did it somewhere else and it was 286whp, the maha said i had 100bhp drag loss lol
