Guys,

Just got back from Power Engineering off the M4 and chuffed to bits.

Had the K&N Induction kit fitted, (much louder than blow off valve though!), to my STi8 PPP.

304 BHP with 276 lb torque.

I am not a techy but assume this is measured at the wheels as it was done on the RR.

ROLE ON TRAX 2003 11.00 AM!!!!!!!!!!!

Ben Muirhead

That'll be at the fly... calculated from the figure at the wheels plus transmission losses

Steve Holmes

cheers,

still pretty chuffed though

Jen

Congratulations! Lovely car too....what's the next target then?

Steve Holmes

Not quite sure,

I need to think about the warranty so am looking for a Lotus 7 replica as track car.

You don't have one do you ?!!!!!!!

CTRnutter

sorry to question but 304 !!

with just the PPP you should be making 305bhp with an induction kit & PPP you should be seeing 315bhp

nellie

Theres a nice westfield with a lotus twin cam in the for sale section.

CTRnutter - You'll never get an accurate reading from a rolling road, there are too many variables such as air temp.
I also highly doubt an induction kit will add 10bhp

CTRnutter

theareticly speaking,

the HKS RSK Induction is supposed to give this amount

RB5SCOTT

I would be more worried about the torque figure?

CTRnutter

yeah considering it's supposed to be 300 ft pounds of torque

john banks

Charge temperatures on the rollers, engine load, induction kit making it underfuel a bit in the midrange... all reasons you could lose torque.

CTRnutter

underfuel ???

have the HKS on mine and the blimn over fuels not under fuels alsmost neatfuel comes out the tailpipe, hence the re-map on it's way

Adam M

ctr nutter, that's on over run.

CTRnutter

i'll shutup now

Nad

Some air filters on CTR's lose the car power!!

Nad

CTRnutter

Good job I have an STI-8 PPP with HKS kit then

Steve Holmes

Forgot to mention before..oops.

My ECU is being sent back next week by the dealer because hot intake air over 30 degrees, (not so hot I think!), kicks the boost levels down. This may indeed have affected the stats today.

CTRnutter

I wasn't being derogatory, just curious,
