Mark, all i know is that your hp graph is smooth which means that your engine has no peaks or dips, however the torque graph shows a dip at 3200rpm where there is a peak 4100rpm which is a charactistic of 16v engines. Ever noticed if you change gear at the wrong time and it takes time to pick up again that because you are in the dip at 3200. I have definately noticed it 🙁

Cheers for that info 😃 . I have noticed when I change gear at some points that it feels low in power like air blocked what.. . The bloke who did the test said at leat you know when racing someone, you know when to change gear, I did not undersatnd that bit notsure.gif . Did he know this by looking at the graph what..

What he means is when you change gear you need to get it right i.e when the engine is producing maximum hp (5800rpm) but then change to the next gear needs to be around 4000rpm to get produce the pulling power. Get it wrong by getting in the dip or too late and running out of revs then you will on a losing battle if you know what i mean.

Sorry, he did this by reading the graph and the information that it was telling him like my previous post. :wink:
