If all is healthy then you should see 380bhp ish

It is my favourite fast road package, very very strong mid range to it

depends on how much boost you run, but i'd be wanting 400+ from that spec (i like to run turbo's at full whack ), but you've got to be careful with your box if its standard

.55s are a bit of a funny one - i'd say you should probably see 350-360bhp all day long.

Sometimes they flow really well though and aren't far off a 0.63!

I'll always be conservative with power figures so as to avoid disappointment, i have heard of engines of this spec making more than i've quoted but if i promise you if, you'll shout at me if you're under it

At this power level, nothing! The 55's have by far the best spray pattern of any injector at this power level



If we're talking about the turbo that was on Rs Gus's magenta saph last year, then it went well as i remember it
