Engine might rev to 10k for all we know.

My mate runs a T25 on his Mini Turbo (1400 K series) and thats 200 ish bhp at 14 psi. God only knows what at 20psi

whats revs got to do with anything rab? revs have no effect on compressor flow.

basically "t25" is a mega basic description and can easy describe summat that can do 265bhp

how a FWD car with 265bhp has lost 40bhp thru the transmission i dont know though

Sorry Stevo, wasn't meaning it like that. Was just trying to Illustrate the fact that he was being vauge with the spec. As I'm sure an engine specced to rev to 10k would be a different animal to a factory engine with a T25 on it such as a starlet turbo. If you follow....

and you believed em?

40bhp from 265bhp is miles too much IMO.

But hey who cares, flywheel numbers mean nothing at all, wheels numbers are what counts.

35kW would turn the box into a molten mush. It's just pretty common to see that figure.
