Going by the advert these are ther only modified parts that would give any power increases

Stage one conversion fitted by turbo systems
Dash 31 actuator
Piper 285T2 cam kit
Turbo technics chip with two stage boost
Radtec twin intercooler(brand new)with twin fans

It certainly wont have 206 @ the wheels, wouldnt even have thought this spec would break the 200 @ fly mark

Looks a nice car though

Lets face facts

You got the car off of Ebay

Every RST has 200 + bhp

I wish i had of known the mods your car has produced 206 @ the wheels, it would have saved me spending twice what you bought the car for to achieve the same power

You would need 236.9bhp@fly to make 206bhp@wheels (based on 15% transmission loss), and as it's still MFi you couldnt fuel enough without a 5th injector (or heavily modified metering unit) to run that power.
I think it's 206@fly which is easily achievable with those mods running about 15psi of boost. (my car makes 200@fly with a FMIC, SS Exhaust, K&N Filter, Chipped ECU, -31 Actuator and a standard cam!).

Like i said earlier looks like a nice one!

Wonder if thats one of the 'Variable Lobe' Piper Cams? Heard they are all the rage these days.

Nice looking car, but AFPMSL at 206 at the wheels.
