G60 max bhp all put your figures in

[sparks 0]

Hi all

just wondering as i thought a little while ago you could get 300 bhp from the little pg whats the average bhp from the engine

so here it is please post your recorded bhp from rolling road or best guessitmate (make sure you state flywheel or wheels power)

i know most have the spec of the car on the signature but if not just a brief one then we all know what we are aiming for with what mods

cheers

ill start it off

 

68mm pulley ,sns chip,straight though exhaust , 168bhp at wheels about 180bhp fly wheel

With 168bhp at the wheels I recon your pushing more than 180bhp at the fly more like 190-195bhp.

Do you mean PG engine on it's own (therefore allowing for a turbo to be used as per Mr. Junkie) or the G60 engine as a whole, limiting the bhp claims to those using the original G-Lader?

[g60karmann 0]

I would like to see all PG really, that way it will give people an idea about the advantages of a turbo and see if it is worth doing, from what I've heard it is not much more than the price of a g-lader re-build and stage 4 porting so might be worth it as a turbo rarely needs re-building and when it would finally come round to need it you will probably be thinking about a bigger turbo anyway :D

I half own a Corrado G60 with my brother in law, we took it up to the Stealth rolling road day a few months back.

Got something like 174BHP at the flywheel, it's totally standard too :lol:

 

Was very impressed with that.

1.9l, forged pistons, Golf G60 FMIC, flowed throttle body, stage 4 charger, Piper 285 cam, 68mm pulley, red tops, custom map.

 

196 bhp at the wheels (233bhp at the fly, and 203lbft). Will be more when I get the proper cam in there, lol.

[Critical_Mass 10]

Smash!

 

233bhp 8)

 

Though impressive figure for a standard engine JoeBloggs

There used to be Silver Mk1 doing the rounds, stripped out for sprinting that supposedly had 274 bhp. Can't remember the exact spec of the bottom end, but was running a Eurospec head and heavily ported charger.

feck me thats a good power figure riley! in fact they all are. I dont know what mine is seeing as its not running now so i estimate about 60 bhp lol

[Riley 0]

Aye, really happy with it, and even more happy with the torque curve...super smooth! Its on awesomes website somewhere, video and graph :)

Its a nice tight engine, just a shame ive had/having so much grief with it :(

:shock: What was that making at the wheels then...

[Craig 0]

with sns chip

68mm pulley

milltek exhaust and de-cat

ported charger

and blanked off boost return , one or two other small tweaks it made 170 bhp at the wheels and 177lbs-ft torque, now for sale :(

[JoBlob 0]

I just make, hhmmmmm, a hell of a lot from the PG but dont like to shout about it too much. lol

 

Power is nothing without control.

[a98pmalcolm 0]

(engine was freshley rebulit)

1.9 big bore

flowed head

std pully

std chip

fast road cam

reground crank

full stainless system

cat bypass

1/2 ruined charger

powerboost vlave

blank off plate

bloked off boost return inlet

raceland manifold

new injector seals

(few otherthings that i done that aint springing to mind)

 

came out at 187BHP flywheel 192 lbft

Frankinstein Motorsport

 

when i did the formula of max lbft x rev (at the point of highest lbft) divided by 5252 it came out 211BHP

(192 x 6000 devided by 5252)

 

But now got the BBM charger on (63mm pully), jabba chip on and injectos on the way so it will be interesting.

oh nice results people! :)

I cant remember exactly, it was something like 205 at the wheels i think

 

I had the RR print somewhere, but i think it went when i sold it to the guy that has it now unfortunatley.. balls

I bought a Mk2 Golf Edition One G60 in my Sig! http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=89060&st=0

 

I built it to have pretty much the same spec as the rado ;-) So pushing 240 - 250bhp.

 

Although that is now sold and being collected end of this month... amazingly mint car, just couldnt use it as a daily anymore, its just too mint, i spent an absolute fortune on it! will be a sad day when that goes :(

 

Then i can start work on my VR Rado ;-)
