Has anyone here taken notice of the HP figure on tge dash or main display,amd of so what is the most you have seen?

Me and the Mrs took note tonight and the max we seen was 423 hp,but after a few runs the oil temps got up and this quickly dropped and we then struggled to get above 377 hp.

I don't usually have it on that setting, but what temperature was the oil when the power dropped as you should be on 70c anyway before opening up the engine.

I've been monitoring the HP level much more since this thread and I haven't yet seen it drop below 423 hp. It might be because the air temperature is a bit cooler now but I also wondered if the drop you noticed was at a higher altitude.

I agree but a big reduction like Paul's is strange unless it's a sensor error but the torque number was holding up.
