I'm as interested as the next person to see what it made @ the wheels but jesus christ chill out people
Wise words there! tis only car's chaps!

If someone said "I have the fastest 'whatever' on PF" then, sure go for your life! But this post was about just saying what a rolling road recons this car puts out...

Even if it did go to brunters it wouldn't prove a thing as a Dolomites aerodynamics are different to a Sierra, not that it matters anyway Although I would like to see it, just for curiosities sake i.e. the first Triumph to top 200mph!

The end of the day, apart from the engineering feat who cares! Either which way, it makes more power than you could possibly ever need! i.e. more than 300bhp

One final thing, in the unlikely event that this was an attempt to mislead (which is highly unlikely based on the code being left on the printout for a start) that would be just as bad as the people shouting the odds about it!

Rod

ps. It will go on the rollers in this new Spec. so expect some very High figures should be over 700bhp atw & no con tricks i assure you.
ROD when you go to the rollers invite me down if you like
Same day same rollers
PS MIKE G will also be there as he said he wants to make sure its all above board as i had a chat to him today
Another thing not 500 atw NOW THERE YOU ARE WAY UNDER
I will gladly run at brunters my car is only geared for 190
and has the areodynamics of a shed but will gladly run it
Then lets go out on track you can let anyone drive your car
Im not scared,
it just makes me laugh how many dummies have been spat out
But then again i havnt spent the price of a house

Your missing the point mate what Karl did was lies nothing more or less & i for one gave him a full day to come clean, he chose to play it up post after post. He assumed that some of us are thick & believe me im not. Feel sorry for DAZ who probably trusted this guy.

If you are not interested or impressed by what my car has achieved then go to another Topic instead of sounding like a jealous little prick.

Tis a funny thread but I do see Rod's point. You can't post a thread as a leading tuner claiming a huge bhp then not come clean about it. I'm sure Karl has a good explanation though and it wasnt at all malicious.
If you look at the thread on here about which tuners people use you'll see that this forum generates alot of business for tuners so its in their best interests to look professional and have good results - now thats a fine balancing act Right?!

I think it doesnt matter which is more powerful, but i also think its going to be Rods TBH

My reasoning is that he is probably making more power off gas due to his larger turbo, and i believe his gas setup will probably yield more power than yours does too.

But thats cause im making the assumption you just have a basic kit + controller in yours and not anything fancy.

Dont for even one second think i was knocking your motor mate, i think its absolutely fucking awesome, genuinely one of my favourite cars of all time

I just happen to think that Rods will make more power based on what little i know of the spec of each thats all.

Ah fair enough

I went to uni there about 12 years ago


Used to always be someone up for a bit of a mad dash round the ring road and through town etc. Good times they were

Plus lots of action over at brum at the esses back then too!


Nowhere seems to be like that anymore though
