Hi Mate

 

I believe you also have the Blitz Power iD in your Zed and when it dyno'd your car it was very accurate.

 

The question is what settings did you use??

 

I have had the car weighed but what how much did you set you power loss at??

 

Mine is reading stupid HP, which is nice but i really dony think she's that powerful :D

 

Many thanks

Hello bud,mine is showing 430 bhp.

 

My car has never been on the rollers because the place where I took it said you cant get a reliable fig from it:(

 

Peter said he has done plenty of autos on his rollers,so the SE weekend should be interesting.

 

My power loss is set at 0 that's what Racelogic told me to do;)

Hi

 

I am presuming that if you have it at 0 then thats the BHP, if you work out the power loss persentage then its then measuring the true BHP at the rear wheels??

 

Would i be right in saying that??

 

It will be interesting to see what people are actually running on the rolling road day :)

 

Cheers

Kirbz, it's cleverer than that (allegedly.) It plugs into your road speed signal and you calibrate it by driving around at various speeds as requested. This does of course assume your speedo is accurate!

 

Then to work out power it does a bit of "er, he was doing 40 and then he dropped into second and floored it and hit 70 three seconds later so that's um, er, weighs 1.5 tons, vee squared equals u squared thingy... er... numerator, denominator... yeah... ah, 330bhp, no wonder he beat the Nova off the lights"

 

Only problem I can see is if your road speed signal is wrong (through incorrect tyre size calibration for example) which will throw the figures out. (Takes more power to go from 60-70 than it does from 50-60.)

 

Because it's measuring the behaviour of the whole metal monster, the figure it gives tells you how much energy you actually used in moving the car around - not how much the engine poured out - and so you'll get a RWHP figure not a crank figure.
