Booking in with Merv and the boys to upgrade from Tek 1. to Tek2. What benefits am I likely to see. BHP / Lbs/ft / boost Bar/ drivability.

Your views will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Scottdg

Went from 245bhp to 265 bhp 222ftlb to 255ftlb holding about 17psi boost
Sooooo much more power mid range and immediate response from the throttle when you floor it
Well worth it
( It was 18.5 celcius on the rolling road so when winter comes am expecting a bit more power)

Ted,

I currently get 258bhp with the Tek 1. So would certainly hope for more than just 7bhp. I have heard that it's the torque set up that really changes though.

Sounds good.

The torque figures are the gig change for TEK2

TEK 2 is similar to the PPP mod with respect to Torque.
You don't gain a great deal in BHP but expect 20-30 more ft/lb of torque.

BHP is nothing without a nice large dose of torque.
