Apparently to the end of the run of this engine Pug used teh Pistons and cranks from the 2.0 Petrol which were a bit weak and tend to give up at about 60-70k A Known issue they wont admit to!

What spec is he running for that CLAIMED power, im presuming his car is a hdi, as its a P3 model

But u need a BIG spec to get 180bhp, and a 180bhp car will have ALOT more tourqe then the figure above, my hdi is only running 135bhp @ the fly, and its got 240lb/ft of tourqe

Well that makes my point even better then, if it is in fact a 1.9 dt then the odd's of it having that power is even lower

Its got full Customer I/C Set up, Larey Cams, And Full LPH Injection (Power Shot) Which runs likes Nitrous in Diesel cars, Hybrid Turbo and runs 24psi (So i guess if your being picky its not true power )

TBH I really dont have a clue about the car as its not Mine. Have seen teh power graphs from the RR that was done when the car was set up.

Sorry, come accross badly in those above posts, not doubting the power, but it does seem strange, and running that power it's prob the most powerful 1.9 dt in the countary which made me wonder, also the tourqe seems VERY low for that bhp

No Probs, And Quite Possibly could be the most powerful? Think he is one of the 1st in the country to have this LPG fitted to a car.... its usually used in HGV lorrys to give them and extra push up hills

best part is the exhaust fumes smell like when you follow a dustbin lorry so you really dont want to follow this car down the road (When its working )

Forgot to mention the exhaust is a Straight through pipe Turbo back, no boxes to a FRST Back box (Which is so small its not really worth having)

Didnt know it was common... He was told the by the comapy that fitted it that an HGV set up had never been fitted to a car

When it used to drive past on full chat it sounded like a Jet fighter with teh gas on and a straight through pipe

He has just bought a New engine still on the pallet for £800 so that goes in soon and it will be back on the road.
