Default Thanks to power engineering

went to power engineering this week to have my 4x4 saph set up and was over the moon with the work they did for me,the first power run saw 270bhp 290ft/lb torque,by the time it was finished it had 321bhp &368ft/lb,i must say its like driving a different car,what a difference just from a set up and was told with a better chip from msd i'll probably see 340-350bhp,i will be going back in the near future for a re chip & set up but for now i'm just gonna enjoy my new found performance,i would highly recommend these guys to anyone, what a clever bloke ian is and it didn't break the bank either,
THANKS POWER ENGINEERING.

Nice to hear some good words - Ian is a really nice guy and knows his onions and the boys down there are genuinely nice chaps.

I'm sure they'll appreciate positive feedback

I use them to do my set up on my RST, they exceeded my expectations even replaced my fooked actuator F.O.C...didnt cost loads either

I will be going back there in the near future once my ZVH is finished for them to set that up too

spec i'm running 803's t34.48,dont know what chip but ian said its probably for the old t3,cometic head gasket,rs 500 style intercooler,we was both impressed with the torque figure thats pretty good for that bhp,we did talk about the little oversight on the last rolling road day and he said the person responsable hasn't been left to forget about it.

always good to get free(ish) horsepower!

You'll never see a genuine 330bhp on a .48 housing never mind 340-350 though!

Highly unlikely on a set of 803's as they are only good for around 350bhp!

803's, a .63 housing and 24psi with good IC/Exhaust/Chip should be a genuine 330bhp......well on a RR that reads correctly
