Are they rating the horsepower from the rear wheels or the fly wheel?
Really...raitchison said:Manufacturers always rate horsepower at the crank, power at the wheels (Fron Wheels in the case of the 3) is less due to driveline losses.
My car just tested at [email protected], so assuming the 160 Crank HP is accurate 20HP is lost through the transmission & other driveline components.
What kind of Dyno and was that corrected or uncorrected? Ambient temps also??? Can you post the plot?raitchison said:Manufacturers always rate horsepower at the crank, power at the wheels (Fron Wheels in the case of the 3) is less due to driveline losses.
