Something definitely not right with that 170bhp run. The stock turbo can’t produce enough air for that power, you need a larger turbo for it. But it’s an excel spreadsheet with information entered, as soon as I saw 170bhp out of a stock turbo I can’t believe those numbers. No impressive torque numbers though, I can get around 430nm of torque out of a diesel. Those maps wouldn’t feel significantly different to stock.

I’d like to see that 170bhp diesel on a properly calibrated dyno. A dyno can be tweaked to give higher numbers if needed, it’s results are only as good as it’s calibration.

Anyone fancy a free dyno run? The offer is there for anyone with a 160 mapped car as long as the results can be posted, and you get a free printout of your power
