187,600 miles.

I can still get 37 mpg if I featherfoot, and the car is running perfectly.

Thanks again Bren.

Cheers,

Charlie

I love hearing that...I'm about to turn 90K on my 2006 S daily driver, occasional track day-er.

Good numbers. Assuming an average 12% parasitic loss from the flywheel to the wheels, yours are just a bit higher than mine (I also used the Dyno Dynamics setup; it's posted in the Dyno charts thread).

Using this formula:

100/211 = 88/x

I figure you have about 185.9HP and 163.9TQ at the wheels.
