As in power? Does anyone know an exact figure that is achievable using a YBP011 (or whatever it is
) 'Grp A'?
I know of people who have made figure's of around 400bhp on them, and this has been using Nitrous etc amongst other things...
Any advice or input would be appreciated!

Its probably done more gearboxes than nitrous refills but its still going

Its low comp (no idea what ratio) headwork, cams and a T34.63, it was 402hp iirc on Harveys dyno.
Nitrous was jetted up a bit rich to be safe, I don't see it much so can't guarantee its not done a gasket by now but it was rapido when I was last out in it
