can we also put down adeui's wheel hp figures, as the dyno operator stated that measuring loss on coast down with the auto's doesnt produce accurate figures.

I believe using the wheel and crank for the above would give about a 50% transmission loss!!

Apologies for the off-topic thread, but...To improve my understanding, can anyone explain why autos on a dyno doesn't produce accurate figures? Would a geartronic make any difference or not?

Would be grateful if someone could post a linky here to a good thread/site which will explain why. Thanks.

cheers

Lol, this must be how the arguments start :-)

That's 221lb/ft for the first run, not 179 (which I assume is just a simple typo):

161 BHP 221 LBS/FT Second Run: 179 BHP 237 LBS/FT

Cheers, Pete (who's off outside to try and trace a rattle from the NSF)
