I can't find anywere else were Iain is saying that if u fit an uprated actuator u will get 380bhp. He has listed is full spec and if people have half a brain cell they would know that supporting mods would be required to possibly get over the standard 330-340bhp from a VF35
) at 380 ...TX.
I understand that TX hence i used the word possibly.
The other 2 cars have produced between 350 and 370bhp. not all 3 have created 380bhp+.
I'm not saying either that if my car was excatly like Iains that it would created 380bhp+ as every car is different.
Anything is possible
My spec at pressent:
vf35 WG ported
440cc injects _limiting me to around 350bhp (had upgraded them but was just a name not in cc my own fault)
hks front mount
hks cat back exhaust system soon to have a decat after tomorrow
simtek ecu
hks DV
Still to come before rr and map
550cc injectors
uprated actuator at 1.0bar
if funds permit
headers
Forge DV
at present i want to change the injectors and actuator once mapped and rr i will then now what i'm pushing. anything over 350bhp on the vf35 turbo would then be a 4th exception

At the moment I'm making 373bhp on a completely untouched VF35, but that is with a 20% mix of methanol. I do wonder what results (if any different) I could obtain by doing the porting and the wastegate, or even moving to an external wastegate as seems to be the trend in America?
if the turbo is holding boost fine there is absolutely no point wasting money on an external wastegate, enlarging the wastegate hole might be beneficial is running high boost levels with/without the meth.
I agrea Myles.... Though i have a feeling that even if Iain produces the same figures with everything perfect people will still nit pic at it.
Would laugh my head off if this runs shows even more power than last time

Mine is the WRX that he is doing some work to before a trip to Bob. I hope I dont hit gearbox and clutch eating levels..........dont suspect it will, but excited about 100 to 120 bhp increase!

You lot make me laugh, my odds are on somewhere between 370 and 380, I say this because if the power @ 1.4 Bar was 380 with an incorrect IT of 40+ deg, (corrected say roughly 360bhp) I still had roughly 0.1bar left in the tank and a mere 4% boost duty change made 10+bhp on the last run, a 370+ bhp run seems in the bag to be honest. I will not keep you waiting the run is booked for 4pm tomorrow the figures will be posted live from the rollers

Yup that was me 370.6 BHP / 364.2 lbs-ft full boost by 2700 / 2800 rpm
My injectors ran out of puff, didnt have a FPR fitted at the time, I was going to go for 400 on it but ended up getting the MD321T+
Mine was still running the top mount so those figures were a little "flat"
I got loads of stick when i first posted up my results back in 2006 as well.
Look forward to one of these turbos breaking the 400bhp mark
Good luck
