I do know what the problem is right now and know what I have to do to fix it, but it's not easy. 350bhp from a 1600CVH isn't easy, thats a fact.
I dont have any printouts but i could get hold of several from my tuner as he has done endless amounts of power runs while mapping the car and some of them are quite shocking and unbelieve, even i thought it was all dyno bullshite figures but the first time i took the car out i thought its not, as the thing is stupid quick!
I don't know if 350 is easy or hard all i know the guy tuning mine certainly knows his stuff.
