says it is producing 126bhp at the wheels on dyno, is it just me or is that slow?

well it says "making 126 bhp at wheels which is 175 at flywheel" so i would guess its 175bhp to be honest which is more likely the power output, as these were 155 standard i think? :? or 165but either way its still pretty good power. but 126bhp at the wheels, iv never understood the difference between the two meanings even tho i have heard it loads of times :lol:
