    Hi all,

    I was wondering how you verify the BHP of a motor without putting it on a rolling road? Where on a cars documentation would it specify this, the reason I ask is that I'm looking at a car at the mo and in the particular year that this car was in production there were three variations of engine with three different BHP levels.

    The only reference to power is 110kw I think this is the equivalent to 150 BHP could someone confirm this.
    :confused:

    110kw is indeed 150bhp, you multiply kw by 1.36 to get bhp.

    Yes,

    110kw = 150BHP. What are you buying? Golf GTI or BMW 320I?
