Just for reference now the engine has done 900miles i took it to a dyno to see how the engine was doing.

running a very rich map(so power lost) less ignition timing that stock, running stock boost(10psi) it made 283bhp at 6900rpm.

This is 400rpm higher than stock and 30bhp more power, so at a very low boost running super rich(11:1 afr)

This shows that my ports are flowing well, id imagine with a bit of adjustment to the fuel to where the stock afr is and back to the same timing levels as stock another 25bhp could be gained, so thats 55bhp above stock at same boost

just need to do a compression test to check everything is bed in correctly and then start saving more money to start putting things together.

So least i know the engine is doing what it should be doing which will make my life a little bit easier so i can concerntrate on my bolt ons and not if the engine was built correctly

this one was when i got back in so you can hear it the sound a little cleaner as the car was nice and warm after a drive.

the car still has the original cat and downpipe on it, cant imagine what a 5in downpipe with a 4inch pipe exiting behind the drivers front wheel will sound like, hope my neighbours love me
