I think its a VF24 if it is a V4 if it is V3 then you will have VF23. Nice car mate.

Ohh then mine is a 24 thanx, it also has some really fancy gauges
Defi ones but still hae not figured them
All out yet also a switchable map (which don't seem too make much diffrence) and anti lag but not used it, and really ice cold digi climate control

TypeR is a nice fun car to drive, had mine for 3years standard only started mods 6months ago.

I bought mine already modified, how do you think mine would compare I know it's not hardly any more powerful but it's so responsive the power is almost instant are they like this from
Standard?

Wow I just noticed 366 bhp ? Do you have a different gear box? As I didn't think they could take that much power and torque! That must be insain!

Some can last at over 400bhp but I think that's probably more down to the way they are driven because I have a mate that can kill 5 speeds with just 270bhp!

It's certainly on the limit at 366bhp but with type R gearing it'll be a lot of fun!

The car is alot of fun with this power, instant power, Like Paulo said its down to the way you drive and its not the BHP that kils the gearbox its the torque that does. I just waiting for bigger injectors then will be contacting Duncan again to work his magic. I know few people running 400bhp on type r gearbox and it has been fine, at that level of power the gearbox will be on borrowed time.


I will be looking to get 6 speed or have this gearbox rebuild with PPG and longer 5th gear.

Fat Boy

18k here on a P1 / StiV type r box at 450bhp/380ft lb. They take more than people think.

V5 gearbox is stronger comparing to V4/3.

So can I just ask, what would I need too do too my typer to get 366 bhp?

Shaks-STI

I have spent fair amount of money to get to this stage, fully forged engine, td05 20g, fmic, fpr and remap, was onky help by 440cc injectors, but once i get my 740cc should make closer to 400bhp, i have spent arround 7k to get to this level and i have done a lot of work on my own.
