Angry Nightmare Day!

Went to Scoobyworld/works today for my MOT and a RR run.
Very nice people, top hopitality and a nice DVD to watch as well
Thats where the good story ends!
Car failed on its emissions with a TSL Thundercat, albeit 5 years old (the cat) i expected it to still sail through this. Bugger.

Then i had it on the RR after that. Oops! Big mistake for my ego that was.
Ere is me thinking i have nearly 340bhp and upto 357 ib/ft. That was from a software printout mind you and so of course an estimate. (No detriment to the person who did this either!)
I ended up with a RR result of 292 bhp and only just made 310 ib/ft which fell rapidly as the revs increased.
Boost was 1.5 bar which was good, the fuelling was bang on too. No boost leaks, pipe issues, etc. So a good report for that, but of course deflated is not the word! LOL
Discuss! Sarcasm and wise words welcome alike. This is a forum after all!
I refuse to be offended! Haha.

Seems quite low BHP for 1.5 Bar boost. Could be wrong...

Don't get hung up on figures its all about how it drives on the road that counts.As long as the fuelling is bang on and its holding boost well who cares about numbers? its only for pub chat anyway

Hi. It does seem low with your engine spec, a vf34, 550cc injectors and 1.5 bar should push around 330bhp, strange

Stuart.
