Who is mapping the car for you?

They would know best really.

Looks good for 500+ on what you have said

Without injectors, my guess is 2bhp from the starter motor.


Seriously though, gotta be 550bhp+ I should think, what does Mark say though, he'll know better than anyone else.

Im sure Mark will sort out what you require with no problems.

Only 30psi LOL, if Mark maps the car it will run more than that im sure.

Nothing interesting mate.

It'd be good to see some quick escorts again but you just need to look at jamie and see the hassle he's had wi his. A 9 like you said wi good brakes and suspension is the ideal motor!
