Tony,
Not really interested in cock sizes mate. Just how different engines perform

I doubt steves stock 205 block engine would survive 2.5 bar of boost and we certainly won't be running it that high
steve has very large feet though

Im sure whatever boost you set will be fine.
From memory Dave (yum) made 470 bhp on his t38 equipped escos at 2.5 bar. I may be wrong so hopefully Dave will be along to correct me but i wont be far out. That was with a worked head and MAD inlet cam.

We made 442bhp on my Saff @ 2 bar after Sheady had mapped it...
Never had it Rollered when it was on Level 8 and Karls map, it was peaking @ 36psi then though..
PS, on a 205 block too...........

the only accurate information I can give you is that it is over 400 bhp but by how much would be guessing

yes there are graphs but the speed signal is inaccurate
which gives runs from 412 bhp and various others up to 546 lol
my opinion as the operator is that the spec of the engine would be closer to the lower figure

I was looking forward to posting some independent graphs and sitting back and watching you all bicker about rolling road inaccuracies lol
comments such as rolling road operator error
ambient air temp wrong
the figures are bound to be high as they are the tuners rollers
the last one was the one I was going to enjoy eventually I would have told you all that these weren't my rollers roflol
