Default stock dyno test results,....very disheartening

Hi all, just did a dyno yesterday but was not convinced on the results on my 1.8T
at the wheels
i only got max 109.5bhp at 5800rpm
and 165.8 Nm of torque at 1950rpm

sheesh....they really revved the car till the entire turbo went 'red hot' haha

still waiting to do my abt chipping tomororw.
how can this happen? is my cvt tranny losing so much power in the transmission?

i can do a sprint from 0-62 in 8.6s tho' with the cvt.'

your thoughts?

Default Absolutely not with a CVT

The CVT doesn't have a torque converter, so losses should be minimal. ~%15.

Default No, I haven't seen one.

But, you should be atleast making over 130WHP.

If possible, I would try going to another shop. It sounds fishy that you're getting such a low number, and that they are so steadfast in their belief that it's correct.
