I do a chip for the Escort Cosworth EEC4.
290bhp small turbo beats a 330bhp large turbo upto 100/110, after this it's pretty even, but a good 330bhp one should see higher top end, although I seen GPS verified 161mph (258kmh).
I can get cams for small turbo one, although this has given me 16 more bhp and midrange power, low down pulling away has suffered.
Mine runs @ 1.5bar exactly (21psi).

Did you have to alter the speed limiter setting in the chip for this?

If my small turbo runs 1.4 bar of boost, it backfires a little on full boost, at 1.3 its fine, how the hell are you running 1.5?

Colder heat range Denso's plugs, No boost limiter, No rev limiter etc
I guess as it is KPa it's more like 1.428bar (20psi)!!

Chip
Actuator
Boost
TT Turbo
FPR
Uprated FP
Cams
Magnex De-cat
Aquamist

Have a graph for 322 bhp (before aquamist). Some may say its out a bit as it was done at well lane, which some say is known to over read but cant be that far out, surely. Still, gotta be over 300 bhp.

NO, BUT THE STD TURBO'S ALREADY SHORT LIFE WILL BE EVEN SHORTER!! YOU'LL NEED TO ALTER THE BOOST BY THE ACTUATOR PRE-LOAD AND THEN FINE TUNE IT WITH A BLEED VALVE. WHEN YOU CHANGE THE TURBO, I HAVE THE PERFECT COMBINATION AND WITH A ACTUATOR ON THAT, BHP GAINS WILL BE ANOTHER 20BHP ON TOP AT LEAST.

wot sort of bhp would i gain of your chip with mods i already have?
AT LEAST 30BHP ON IT'S OWN

take it `a` spec is A Bayjoo??
NO. 'A' SPEC IS A SPEC THAT WE DECIDE, IN OTHER WORDS WHATEVER SPEC WE NEED FOR YOU!!!
