Did you notice much difference after fitting them ?

What power did you get ?

How much boost do you run ?

Just got back.

Was running very lean pass 6300rpm on the Greens.

So had it set up on the 400s

Made 391.7bhp @ 6635rpm, but only 334.6 lb/ft

I think the Bhp is a bit optimistic

Peaked @ 1.8bar boost

Steve.

the bhp does sound a bit optimistic tbh........do you have a graph you can post?

as long as it is safe and feels good on the road then thats what matters

most quoted figures are bollocks anyway,and from the times in your sig,it's obviously a very quick car

I don't know how to post my graph

The times in my sig was when the car run 803s and a .48 housing

Now on 400s and a .55

Just had a play with a mate on his R plate ZXR7 (750cc) and the car is faster once on the move lol

Steve looked at one in Broomfield next to the duck pond & have the details for the one a few doors up from you, 6 bedroom one on the corner but did a drive by & its not got enough parking space where the garage is around the back,shame as the house is ideal space wise inside huge.

Anyway lets get the thread back to cars i expect you will be going to the pod when it re opens to try & get in the 12's I'm in 2 minds whether to book my car in this month at Danny B's & get those chassis connectors welded in on my floor pan as he's doing a special deal on them in January, i've saved up my Christmas money but got to get round the wife
