Hi all. Have a 1310A+ that measured 51BHP at the wheel on a recent dyno day. I'm trying to calculated injector sizing for my EFI conversion project, http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=67644, and need to know what the BHP would be at the engine. It is a standard A+ gearbox with 3.44 diff. Any ideas? :)

Without proper measurement it will only be an approximation, roughly in the range of 20% to 30%, however, do you have all the environmental factors of the day for corrections? These too can cause a variation of up to 40% easily.

For an A series the general gestimate is 20-30%
