Took one of my cars to the rolling road, at random, just to see what power output she had,  it was a thames valley police 3.2i automatic, went like the clappers, some are chipped to 225 on a police programme in the ecu, normaly though, they are 211 standard police spec.
Took this 2001 51 with 130k on the clock and a full history, to the rolling road.

On the form, it asks for your predicted bhp, i put 211.
it got 211.0 spot on, most people elaborate with their subarus, so they where amazed it was on the nonse!

heres some pics,  run 2 and 3 achieved 211.4bhp

Nice one!

we had a rolling road day in 2008, seem to remember 218bhp from the 3x 3.2s present that day. But my memory is crap and a differant dyno may read it differantly?

Different dyno's will always give very slightly different results, and power output from any engine varies very slightly with temperature and humidity, so 7 bhp is well within the range of error I would expect.

That shows very nicely what a flat torque delivery the V6 has

also looks like a manual, the 3.2s at our rolling road day where all auto, made some funny lines on the graph, computer had a fit working it out

Shows what a good maintenance program returns We all know that with age the horses escape

  Very true Chris, think it was yours mine and Andy...mine was runing with a fauly coll pack on one side which i did not know about . With that taken into account not bad .

Yep, that was my old 3.2. The one where they turned the key to start it and it was already running!

Nice one - good flat torque as well delivering smooth power as Mark says.

If your talking about the rolling road day in Long Eaton.....that was a total joke with people who did not have a clue what they were doing
