The bottom line is run it at the track, because HP LIES!!!!!

i found that out as well
compare my 318 bhp (MAHA static dyno) with my mod list
and then watch the my 0-210k vid. that doesnt really fit...

thats why i always do my 80 to 180k test in 4th gear at the same place. no shifting. (also trying to get comparable weather conditions)
so in comparable weather my stock 850R manual (250hp) did that in 18 something.
now im at 10 something. yes no kidding.
Its probably cheap and very good way to dyno your individual gains.....

And you had considerably less power up top then with the 16T !

i would like to say that stock plain jane 850's had 150 hp.  My dad had an 97 n/a 850 , that was until he hit into an 18 wheeler, and survived

the GLE base models have 143hp or something like that
the GLT from 93-96 have 168hp, the 97 having the turbo
