Hi

I have 2 vehicles currently: BMW M235i and Golf 7 R DSG. I have yet to log my R, but I did some first test of my M235i, and have some questions:

I understand all Power (in hp or kW) and Torque (in Nm) are measured at the wheels. Most of the time, the highest Nm values Torque Pro is reading are around 400 Nm. However I have a single value of as much as 484 Nm recorded - can I trust it, or is it a "noise" of some kind? Let me remind that the factory specs of the M235i are 320 hp (326 PS) power and 450 Nm torque, at the crank of course... Are such high Nm values realistic at the wheels? TIA

Piotr

Hello?

Does any support still exists for legit Torque Pro users?

Oh, and back to my original question in this thread: how come the wheel power and torque are so close (and in the case of the almost 490 Nm spike - hugely exceed) the factory specs of 240 kW / 450 Nm at the crank? Is it some error in my car data as entered to my Torque Pro, or could BMW underrate this car performance so much that the advertised crank data is in reality achievable at wheels?!!
