Tidy .....that's some bloody good power for only a bar of boost on a t3, don't think i've heard of any others makin that sort of power at the same boost!! The tubular manifold made a fair old difference then u reckon???!! U don't fancy windin the boost up some more then....surely it would make some proper impressive figures at 20 odd psi??

mine made around that figure on a t3 at jamsport too ( running bout 3 psi more ), standard manifolds though so thats one reason im really thinking of getting some, more so to hopefully get the turbo spinning that little bit sooner !!!!!. once again though mate, fair play !!!!!.

Dont forget this is a 1.8 cvh. so spool up/power will be improved than a 1.6 if correctly specced.
