I am using the car to test a series of different fuel and oil technologies. Before I can do that I needed a baseline. Just over 1700 miles on the engine now and first run results below using Shell V-Power.
This engine was run- in within the first 100 miles from new. This was achieved with the engine up to full operating temperature and speed/load gradually built up throughout the revs and different gears whilst ensuring engine braking was used where possible and/or safe to do so.
For me this virtually guarantees low to nil oil consumption and solid power from the stock engine/tune.
Tested on a Dyno Dynamics unit at AP Tuning in Norwich that is known in the area to break a few hearts with regards to lower than expected numbers when compared to some other dyno’s.
Results: 410.7 HP / 416.5 PS
