No bother I'm sure its all paid for etc as I have not been called about it and I sure as hell no one would fit any parts without the "owners" permission. As I said - I'm not sure they are mine.

Thats odd, i fully believe your car is this power @ wheels and fly
but
As i've always been told that, Ava said 100 bhp losses on a 4wd (let alone 2wd) was unbelieveable, as that sort of transmision losses would melt the transmission.
also on previous decussion about this some of Ava's customers said a 4wd car would only have 30-40 bhp losses on a 500 bhp engine.

PassionFord Post Whore!!
In fact i have a statement you posted, to something i wrote.
oh my god that is about the most stupid statement i have ever read.
will someone please explain how a car can possibly lose over 100 bhp thru the transmission?
it bloody impossible!
Another quote
And another
alan and i have had that convo in detail chop thats why i stirring a wee bit.
i know that if you lost 128 bhp thru the transmission it would probably melt wit the heat...

they dont think my car has this power but quote about 30 hp more for a fly fig but are not intersted in fly figs at all.
im only going by what i have seen on other cars that have been on ava rollers after being on a dyno.
ie mike rainbirds saf made 515 on harveys dyno and 395 ATW at AVA.
Andy Gallaghers escos made 612 on harveys dyo and 484 at AVA.
bear in mind both mikes and andys cars once fitted into the car have restrictive exhaust systems and all other related losses(alternator,higher charge temps etc) along with transmission.
i stand by what AVA say and agree that massive losses thru transmissions are impossible
take from this what you will..
