I got mine to 320bhp, but a friend has got 340-350 pretty much everytime he goes on the rollers - but gets told that's on the limit ideally.

So about 350bhp I reckon, sure others wil soon voice their opinons!

Seen more than 350bhp but that might just be the RR i used, done it 3 times at different times of the year.

depends if theyre standard greens....you can have the spray patterns modified but only for another 20 bhp or so usually cheaper to buy new injectors

Live mapped, you could probably push them to 365/370bhp, but the engine / turbo would have to be perfect.

well they say you shouldnt run injectors past 80% duty cycle, so you dont want to be pushing the injectors to the limit.
dont know owt else about them though! lol sorry

370bhp is possible when set up correctly and with the right spec. My old car ran a 372 on one RR then the new owner took it to a RR day and it made 369 both times fueling etc was spot on.

some sad news about that... it got hit by a bus the other day, the company then refused to give us their insurance details hopefully all sorted now tho and looks like its easily repairable

engine's still going strong still has the occasional random missfire tho, still... there's loads of things i can try to sort it yet
