<< Fred, I have everything you have done to your motor except that I have stock sized pistons... the balancing is more for smooth running up high and the forged pistons don't give hp or torque. So, anyways, I have about 134 or so HP at the wheels according to Dynojet. That translates to 157@15% and 163@18% eff. losses. When I called the Neuspeed tech department, they told me that a typical VW loses around 18% and that is what they use for their wheel to crank conversions. - That doesn't sound right. If I remember correctly, the figure is more like 21-22% (which would mean you're making more power at the crank).
