Today's dyno run (376hp / 566Nm) and weight measurement (1582 kg)

This afternoon it was all about visiting my tuner and doing some measurements. The first task was checking the weight of the car!

In the end the car weighted in at 1582 kg with some papers, small gear and cables in my glovebox, but that was about it. I removed all the big heavy stuff. That would have acquainted for like max 500 gram in total. In the back of the car there we some spare lights bulbs for the car, the manual booklet and so on, another 500 gram. The fuel tank was 80% full which is about 42,5 liter, which is roughly 32 kilos.

So let's deduct this from the 1582 and we get 1549 kgs for my spec car with fluids in the engine (oil, fuel, etc). Not too bad knowing that my car has a high spec and has a M-DCT.

Secondly, we did a dyno run today. No tuning, only checking the output. The final output was 376 hp @ 6,500 rpm and 566 Nm @ 2,000 rpm. This is 6 hp higher and 66 Nm higher than the manufacturer says. Interesting!

I am uploading a video now which will show the run. Exhaust note is bleh. I need a better sounding system. This sounds like nothing. Although I had my tuner drive my car and although he said it is a lot more civilized than the 1M, it sounded not too bad hearing him drive it on the industrial area.

Also I had a short go in a 400 hp R56 MINI Cooper S... That was like W T F fast...

Nice investigative write up.

It makes me wonder what could be achieved if they used lighter panels,1440kg maybe...

Have you any plans with regards to tuning ?

Akrapovic exhaust and that is it... Nothing more needed. In the end it is my daily! Working on a new project with another type of car that will be more bonkers.

This power measurement was at the wheels or estimated at crankshaft?

The pics show a chassis dyno. Therefore the crankshaft HP is an estimate. Which begs the question of why they had the confidence to remark about the HP difference from factory numbers.
