Sem - could be more though really couldnt it? as its often been said that the power figures when actually tested on a RR come out as high as 160 (for a PD 150) and 140 (for a PD 130).

i'm surprised that no-one has yet mentioned the 'T' word (so often associated with diesel power discussions)..... - surely its just a matter of time!
Only kidding guys. After reading the current issue of Golf+ - the 1.8T V PD article, i'm starting to seriously consider joining the diesel brigade.
Essex - why the interest? - you thinking of going to the dark side?

These figures are often quoted but usually on rollers that either aren't setup properly or read high anyway. In reality most will be very close to their quoted outputs as standard.

i can only quote standard on 2 different rollers for...156 for one and 158 for the other...and was reliably informed that not many pd150's he seen come close to the 148 factory settings and he showed me the later the model build the higher the figure including one of 162...so who knows what they were doing when they come out the factory?.I did notice one thing though all when chipped where max 193 and the average was 185-190 so didnt matter once remapped what u had to begin with...if that makes sense.I must admit i dont warrant remapping cos i had my 330D done and thats more than a match for most...so if i feel in the mood i take that and leave her the pd150..cos she dont know no different +the mileage factor comes into it ..bmw does 15k max PA and the 150 does up to 25/35K dependant on the work logistics.I would take the plunge u wont regret it ..like JACE says "come to the darkside"lol.
