Most 15% and Intake jobs get 188 at the wheels...his pulls 197 w/ the 17%, exhaust, and intake...completely believeable, and somewhat normal I would bet. 11whp (188 -> 197) out of exhaust and 2% extra reduction...strikes me as normal. Nothing particularly strong (or weak) about that.

So putting out 197 WHP like his does is in fact way out of the norm. When you consider that he just added about 45-50 whp with only a pulley, intake and a light fly wheel it does sound sorta off to me, or perhaps the better word for it would be unbelievable. It just doesn't add up to me regardless of how his car came out of the factory being strong or not.

Actually his numbers are way out of the norm. The base R53 puts out between 160-165 BHP then you have to take out the 12-14% drive train loss which puts you somewhere between 140-150 WHP approximately, depending on your car.

So for me, seeing someone at 197whp from stock w/ a 17%, intake, and exhaust does not strike me at all as odd. Evidently even less odd when, according to those posting above me, this particular dyno reads on the high side of things.

What kind of correction factor was used?
...there's a dozen or more questions that could be asked that could effect the outcome of a dyno run. Your number suggests to me that you were running about 155-160 whp, which again, depending on conditions, sounds about right. You might have gotten a couple more hp running to 6900. The most important part about dyno runs are the deltas achieved between modifications. Could you have a boost leak...sure?!?!!?? But without more data, it'd be real hard to tell just looking at the numbers. Try this; get a stopwatch and time yourself from 30-70 mph on a flat road and let us know what your average time was...try about 5 runs and throw out the best and worst times, then average. Good luck and welcome to the jungle of info called NAM

Tonight i'll do the time tests you recommended and i'll post the results. Please have in mind that my Mini is heavy (roof, leather, clima, stock wheels with runflat tires, me - 94 kg)
