powelmac Member 32 Member For: 8y 7m 4d Posted 03/02/19 07:31 AM Share Posted 03/02/19 07:31 AM Had my car at the tuner through the week. It had lightweight koya 18’s with 285/35r18 semi slicks on the back when it went on the dyno. It made 370rwkw on the mainline dyno, which the tuner thought was way down. So we chucked on some 19” FPV twists on with a cheaper, harder compound 245/35r19 tyre. It then put out 401rwkw with no changes to the tune what so ever! The koya wheel/tyre combo weighs 6kg less than the stock FPV twists, just shows how much a soft tyre can distort dyno results FYI, car ended up at 420rwkw at 19psi while I run in the new twin plate ceramic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
