Default Not bad: standard performance after 20 years

Hi,

I was curious what kind of perfomance my 21 year old C4 would have, so we put it on the dyno
The c4 is original.

Hope you like it

Your dyno sheet is in German and metric ratings.

HP & torque measured in Kilowatts.

We Americans are lazy.............don't feel like translating & converting to US measurements.

Ok here a small attempt at translation.

Norm vermogen = standard power

Motervermogen = horsepower

vermogen aan de wielen = power to the wheels

vermogenverlies = power loss

Maximaal toerental = max rpm

Koppel = torque

max rpm = 4740

216.2 PS = 213 Hp

516 NM = 380 ft. lbs.

OK.
That is helpful.

Good power numbers for a near stock C4.

I like German Beer, brats, & sourcrout too.

Send Beer to all of us on C4.
