No worries!

Lovely looking motor!!!

Who's done all the work on the car?

Might be worth taking it to scoobyclinic for a service and check over.

The guy i bought it off is Nicky from Wilkinsons vehicle solutions,,from carnaby near brilington,im sure scoobyclinic did some of the work on it,,im not sure wether Nicky is on here or not,he has had a few scoobys in the past.

Nice car, I know a few people from Brid.

Do you know who mapped it and why so conservatively?

380 bhp from an sc46, something fishy there my friend.


an sc46 would need supporting mods like a front mounted intercooler and should make way more than 380 bhp.

Hence my quotes my quotes to get in down there.

I'm sure it'll be fine but they always go much faster after a good service

It has larger injectors already, so surely they would have gone a fair bit bigger than the 550's it came with

The top mount should be ok well into the 400's also. Could well have been struggling to hold boost high up if it's on standard map sensor and boost solenoid?

Have you any graphs buddy?

By the way this is just the scoobynet jury doing a lot of misinformed guess work

I would get it into Scoobyclinic though and get it serviced, if it has been mapped the chances are it was Pat Herborn who did it and they might have info on your car.

As far as I know Aaron it not long since it went into scoobyclinic,acording to the mileage on mot's its not done much since the chap I bought it from as had it.when I picked car up Nicky told me it as only done 800 miles since last service & he is going to service it when its ready as part of the deal when I bought it.
