Thanks for your comments.

I dont know if the intercooler is standard, if you say it looks like it then your probably right, afraid I dont know much about RS Turbo's, never having had one before.

If you reckon that I am only going to achieve standard power, which is about 130bhp I believe, then I really have to disagree. If that was the case what is the ported and gas flowed head, Kent race cam, superchipped ECU and low compression pistons doing?, nothing at all?

I have driven a standard RS Turbo and I can assure you that this is not standard, bear in mind that I currently have a 450bhp Sapphire and the kick in the back on boost is very similar.

However, I am only quoting what I was told when I bought the car, maybe the boost is not 7 psi I honestly dont know, the information came from a friend of the guy that had the work done at Odell Motorsport.

All I can say is it is a racing prepared and tuned engine and no way is that going to produce standard power.

Cheers
