£12,000 spent on performance mods and only 4.5BHP increase on standard/claim ?

Now I'd be miffed with that !

The owner was quite happy actually. The car was running less than standard boost and is curently running a standard map. Soon to be fitted with some ECU "enhancements".

Cheers

What is your actual BHP then (before Sunday!). How does that compare with Superchip's & therefore were they accurate & accordingly were mine accurate ?

Unhappy

Richard, the experts didn't know if it should be run with diff lock on or off, ran it off and couldn't get a reading unfortunately.
Actually, they only published figs for official 5 cars anyway, so it wouldn't have made a difference.
Still, you could lend your car to someone else to take up for dyno day on the 27TH!

Stef:
As much as it pains me to say so, yes your car was the winner (with and without the Superchips). Dammit, I hate you Hope that result brings a smile back for you....

Richard:
Charles is bang on. The car was run with the diffs unlocked becuase no one (at the time) could say for sure whether it was OK to run the car at high speed with the diffs. locked.

Anders managed to find out (over the phone) that it *was* OK and the diffs were locked on Anders and Charles car's for their runs. There is always another chance to run it.

Hence, I will not be scanning/mailing your curves to you as they are trash.

Cheers

Ian

YIPPEE!!!!

James.
No, your;s (Superchips) aren't accurate.
Standard cars got 215bhp at PTS also, where I got 236bhp before chip and 261bhp after.
Sorry....

Stef.
