[Phil_D]

Not sure if anyone knows this or not , i have done a few searches but can't find the answer anywhere...

What is the standard BHP at the Wheels for an e46 330 ??

Cheers

Should be about 190 i think.

231 bhp stock at the flywheel.... think the accepted transmission loss is around 15% (rwd cars) which would mean about 181bhp at the rear wheels... give or take a horse.

[hmm 231 - 15% is 196bhp.

Cheers lads, was on the rollers last night and it came in at 197 Bhp at the wheels i was a bit worried as he said this equates to 217 bhp at the Flywheel which is way down on standard but he did not know the % of transmission loss for my car.... On the upside i managed to skin some of the S14 200sx boys who i was at the RR with on the way to it :)

p.s Interesting spelling of Question is there anyway to edit the first post ?

My dyno session before the S/C showed rear wheel HP of 190. Was supposed to do an 'after' roller session but ended up selling it...LOL
