You can go above 195hp with a 195 chip

but in this case you won't be very lucky to scrape past 200hp if that spec is genuine....

Claims 220hp at 7.5psi

Ah well its ebay you're supposed to add 30-40hp its the rules

The way i read it is Escort T3 stage 1 turbo, beige injectors & boost controller. I guess that lot could just make 220 bhp due to the stage 1 getting close to its limit but it being forced to make the boost from the contoller.

In the subtitle he says it's had over £10,000 spent

a quote from the description

" it had spent alot of money on it £8845 to be exact well thats all the reciepts i have with it anyway"

close enough i guess
