Mani, RWKW figures really are just a guide. Unfortunatly its a common practive for Dyno opperaters to dyno cars in a manner that yields higher than "actual" figures. 158 FWHP is what Toyota publish as the engine output and you should expect a 30-35% drive train loss on an older RWD. That puts the "expected" figure at around 82 RWKW. (118 KW less 30%) Alot of Dyno places will Dyno cars in 3rd gear which gives a higher reading due to the car not being at a 1:1 gearing ratio. The dyno's themselves are all adjustable to show higher or lower figures. Some businesses feel that a higher figure is better for business. (ie the customer is happier) This is why we use Premier Auto's Dyno for our Dyno Days. we know there dyno to be run responsibly and that it is set as to provide a realistic RWKW figure. (we also run all cars in 4th gear on the day to keep things as accurate as possible) [Report message to a moderator]
