NOW You Can Change Your Title (7/18)

  1. It was stock gearing with a half worn 55 tyre, when I finish the house off I'll have another go at it
  2. Hi there, how do I get from 192hp to 205hp? 2015 gen 2 with k&n filter, yoshi r77 can, decat, stainless down pipes and just had woolich flash from 175 hp to 192hp, kind regards mike

      Hi Mike,

      The short answer is a 1407cc engine 2mm overbore on the pistons, different cams and flowed head.
      BMC is a slightly better filter and considered to offer the highest airflow whilst still being a filter.
      Decatting doesn't necessarily offer any performance gains, I've read some report that show no difference between race cats and straight pipe. You'll see a difference because you've swapped the entire primaries from the stock headers which offer improvements elsewhere! Most notably the weight ( though irrelevant to engine performance)!
      192 is right up there for a stockish engine, I think 195 is possible, two folks I know of have been in that ball park, think they both had BMC filters and an Akra 4 - 2 - 1 exhaust system. I'd guess it's likely the filter, the fuel used or differences in tuning (mapping) for the dyno run, though age of bearings, chain & sprockets or even air temp and humidity on the day can impact results by a few hp.
      What is your objective? I wanted more torque, I have 20% more (75 - 90) at 3k rpm, similar peak gain at 6k rpm (99 - 118) the rest of the graph is pretty good overall just need to make a minor adjustment to the headers to lift the torque up a bit at 4.5 k to 5k rpm and I'll be happy, but I've been very busy in other areas of life since I started this off.image.jpeg

  3. MB Yes, also obtained, thank you! Makes for some interesting reading, I wonder if one day they'll print these things in colour
  4. But Mika, it's good for ya
  5. I watched this yesterday, what an impressive car the Tesla is! I saw another video posted on this site where a bike was drag racing a different Tesla (bike won) but you could see the Tesla on the start line getting close to wheeling! I thought the gen3 had launch control, which presumably would take care of the wheelie, or is that only for the duration of 1st gear? How many of us have beat the Tesla's time ?
  6. Nice one mak, best thing about CW's used to be the cafe (not been to the new one) Were there any goodies in the tank bag
  7. I guess this is eactly why we now have sensors that measure all sorts, because we like talking about it and comparing riding styles etc. Also it does allow us to prove whether the chicken strips are because you're a chicken or if indeed that particular tyre profile you claim cannot be used to the edge . I guess launch control is going to be rarely used, but possibly useful at elvington
  8. Absolutely! If the gen 3 had a 1441, I'd have been straight on the phone to John to upgrade it to 1450 or something
