Yes,around that figure buddy .........as we all know the gearbox starts crying with increased torque, if its too high.
But this car doesnt get launched and is driven with mechanical sympathy:norty: |
Looks good, I'm currently doing the red/black under bonnet combo - it works well:thumb:

Forgot about this thread !!!
So rewind back to end of may, day off mapping ..to cut a long story short the engine decided just after mapping to spin a shell bearing and was knocking its tits off !!! Limped home ,licking my wounds and after a few hours decided to repair the old girl Alot of late nights and £££££ spent on her with various upgrades i decided to rebuild the bottom end ( heads,valves,pistones were all ok ) So she now has a fully rebuilt bottom end consisting of V8 crank Full ACL bearing set Manley H beam Rods Cometec head gasket set 11mm oil pump new water pump,themostat etc etc All built up with the help of Colin@IgnitionMotorSports Run in for about 500 miles with proper oil and hardly no boost , oil changed then off for a trip to SRR for Simon to work his magic After a tense few hours and replacing a dodgy maff sensor and taking off a leaking gasket off the sandwich plate............it went on the rollers!! Simon got out of the old girl 367.8bhp/347ft lbs She is totally transformed from a great car into a perfect car !! that was about 1 month ago and she hasnt missed a beat since!! Thanks to JGM and all who helped me |
