286bhp? On Standard Engine and T3?? I dont think its possible on a Standard T3/CVH whatever the engine spec to be honest.

I reckon a T3 is all done at around 200bhp in standard form. 220bhp tops, but that would be MEGA boost.

To be honest, though, I would be really surprised to see anything over 200bhp in reality.

LOL. Run it when the Gearbox/Tyres are cold on a Winters day with the handbrake on one click and 250bhp might even rear its head.

A standard erst t3 will never make a real 200bhp, reckon it will be hard pushed at 180.
