Hi all! I have a 5BW with about 3000 miles on it. Shortly after break in I did various pull up to redline in 2nd and 3rd gear and the power gauge showed impressive numbers (~675hp). I realize of course that this is an estimate so also had a chance to get the power measured on a dynojet where my car was measured 610hp at the wheels -- was super happy with that!
Today I was doing some 2nd and 3rd gear pulls but see that torque tops out at a bit of 600 lb ft and power doesn't exceed 590 hp. Any ideas for what could be the issue, why I'm not seeing the same figures as before?
