If you are happy with it, let it be.
I spent shed loads of cash on mine, and one barely makes over 300bhp, but comparitively more torque - I don't give a toss what others say. It's mine, and it's been built for how I want it.

They are an aluminium liner coated with a silicone carbide nickle sometimes ceramic i.e Yamaha.
The coating expands at the same rate as the aluminium, and therefore does not distort up the shape, as the bore will remain perfectly round. The rings will rotate about 7 times per 10,000 rpm, as the rings do this in a perfectly round bore they wear evenly. If a bore becomes egg shaped, the rings will not rotate, and will cause uneven wear.
Standard rings will cope, but the rings will not last as long

Mike,
Despite what you may think, I and others are genuinely interested.
As Gareth said elsewhere, its nice to see what spec does what and your
set up isnt a run of the mill type thus making it more interesting.
Dont forget, many on here are your customers and respect what you do
with your car. You say its good then prove it. !
If the tables were turned, you would say the same

i forgot to tell you mike that the truck driver stopped off at the ford cologne plant to pick up the focus estate and a massive crowd came out to have a look at your escort
same at customs in france, they all had a good look at it apparently.

Simon,
All the people close to me KNOW what power it made, I don't care about anyone else
. In fact, I find it REALLY funny that people getting so narked about me not putting it up
.
Nick,
That is REALLY cool to here - it's nice to know that the car was appreciated
, although not sure if the customs interest was a good thing or not
.
Benni,
If you note my smilies that I used, you will see there was no animosity in my reply, so yes I realised that

Rich,
Because that is the "qualifying" boost level if I need it to dispatch the likes of the "Daves"
, and not the boost level the car will be run at on a regular basis. In-car, I only intend to run it at 29psi for longevity. It will only have the full 32psi if and when needed, as I really need the engine to last at least as long as my last one, as it has gone significantly over budget
.
Ryan,
Yes thanks
.
Chris,
I like your attitude
. What did you imagine
?

Dave,
Now I'm confused
, as you say you only really got to 6500 on the dyno day, but your dyno plot clearly shows two further rpm points after this
.
But just so you're happy, your engine makes more power than mine at every single point until 7500, and then mine takes over the batton
.
However, you're running SEVEN more psi than me, and on my engine, each psi is worth 22bhp, so if you reduced your boost or I increased mine, they would actually be pretty evenly matched until 7500....
Now I'm confused

Yes mike your correct and yes there was 2 futher rpm points. But the Ecu did see anymore than 6500 and we thought it was a coil issue, Since installing engine into the car we found that it was a issue that could have been sorted on the day.
And as you see on my chart there was nothing after 6500rpm
