Not a competition lads, but think this will be a very helpfull topic.

list every engine mod, and brake horse and torque figures. From rolling road graph. from 220 bhp on yellows, to 500 or 600bhp. Please Contribute.

Good topic....

Had mine dynoed bout 3 weeks after I bought it with the mods that the prev owner had done. Sort of a "starting point" for me.
3dr running stage 3... pod filter, 3inch hi-flow exhaust, turbosmart boost adjust valve, greens, 3 bar map sensor, .31 actuator, stage 3 chip, wrc head gasket, grp a coil and leads etc etc..
Was quite dissapointed with the results when I saw the numbers (at the wheels btw) but after seeing the graph!!! Easy to see its the boost that is the problem!! It dives off faster than it climbs! Have since purchased a Apexi AVC-R Electronic boost controller. Will have it back on the dyno once it sorted... stay tuned

drivability is fine for everyday driving,tis a little more laggy at the mo as ive just put a bd10 inlet cam in but is going to be set up again very soon.

I have a grp A breather system with oil seperator tank,swirl pot,turbo was already on the car when i brought it but has 360 deg bearing,cut back blades etc and i run it with a bailey turbo damper.Car has been very reliable too....touch wood!!!!!
