Martin,
Don't get confused with the peak rpm, this was only reached in 1st 2nd, 3rd and 4th, as with 3.36 gearing and 235/40x17 tyres, I only ever saw around 7k in fifth.

Dave,
Your car was dynoed at 466bhp, I think Warren's was dynoed at 507bhp, so had similar installation losses to you and would have to be retarded in the same way to suit the 3" exhaust

At that kind of speed, that 1.2mph difference would be the power difference between the two - just ask Rod how much extra you need to go each 1mph above 175

Maybe on Dyno it was 466 but on the day we had to knock the timing back 4 degrees so would have been running about 430-440bhp
So think it we had not had to knock 4 degrees out of timing it would of made the 180 mark
But YUM will now get to the 190 mark when up and running

Small Man,

why the fook is everone so interested in topspeed? spend thousands on an engine to fookin drive it flat out up a runway and risk blowing it up ...boring as fook
i attended two topspeed runs with my escort..it toped at 178mph due to a misfire...no excuses but was pulling 165mph by the half mile mark
tthat day probably cost me between Ł750 to a grand for fuel /travelling loss of earnings...thank fook i,m away from it now
and NO i dont miss my escort one bit

Mike glad your new intercooler works but everyone else seems to get more power than you using a shonky rs500 intercooler as you call them,Perhaps it's not the intercooler that is causing your charge air issues perhaps it is all the hot air you are talking in the dyno cell

every 1mph over 180 is even harder.
everyone thinks its as easy as turning up with a car running X amount of BHP and away you go.
For a high top speed to be hit and the car to stay reliable it takes alot of effort and testing
![Top](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/smile011.gif)
go for it BUD

you will be beter of with a bigger turbo tho
