Thanks all...

Booked in for it's first test today...

Just interested what it's running at the moment (Std apart from green air filter).

Then will look at exhaust... then who knows!!!

BTW...

I only had it serviced by the man Cornelius yesterday, is it ok to test it today?

Also... never had a test carried out so is it just full throttle for x-amount of time? Is it in danger of blowing up? I'm nervous?

It's scary standing next to your car when it's revving high but everything should be fine honestly.

Just found this video

Well it made it......

First ever dyno test: 240.1 BHP and 234 lbft torque

I was quite surprised!! I was expecting around 210 bhp?

It has a Green air filter and an exhaust which I think was on it new (would love to know what it is, maybe prodrive item? Both cats still in place)

Well they say it's pretty sound and maybe I'll do some mods now I know where Im coming from?

Cheers for the contact and cheers to EA in Witham!!!!!

The Terzo's original exhaust is the standard Subaru 2 pea-shooters side by side. I think mine runs about 240 with a K & N filter and a fully de-catted exhaust.
