My biggest suprise at the results.........

Daz - only 316bhp, what happened?
i was suprised too rich,they got my hopes up on the first run and i got 347bhp then there was a problem so they ran it again and that was the score,but the main thing was that its not going to blow up,but the clutch is slipping so ill have to get that sorted.

A dab on the brakes sends the figure through the roof just think danny could be on 800bhp with his new brembos

but it must be said, we did say before that our cars were pretty evenly matched and only 1 BHP in it proves that,

mmm I thown a small fortune at mine and yours is pretty much out of the box apart from the exhaust, headers and Apexi

Hi Gaz,

Mine read 265bhp and 348Nm (258 lb/ft). Time to decat the down and up pipes!!

Daz - glad to hear it's not down to a problem, I always think of the "350" badge when I think of your car, hence the question.

Edit: Gaz - what figures did you get on the rollers?

Don't forget Rich when we mapped originally it was very cold, 11.5*C. Saturday was 17.5*C. Don't forget this when you are feeling down hearted.

Gearbox is ok, but its close to the limit power wise when it comes to reliabilty, so i have bought a uprated one, hope to have it fitted when i have the clutch/flywheel (Group buy) done at API next month,.

Nice, be good to see your car after the suspension (Eibach's?), it makes a newage look soooooo much better being 25mm lower.

What brakes are you having, just discs and pads or new 4/6 pots?
