well im only home from some lost prophets and biffy cliro action at belsonic my god was i suprize at the result 94 bhp from a starlet with a piston ring away and the ecu is running in safe mode and making it over fuel and i discovered i have a nasty hair line crack in my exhaust mani the car is only set up by ear aswell havent got the timing cheacked yet think it needs retarded abit aswell so that could be part of it to. when i was speaking to jay he said if the car wasnt over fueling the magic 100bhp would have been very likely. the mods for now will remain a secret and only known to select few. but thing are looking very good for the new if thats the result i got today my predicted mark for the new engine will be between 110 and 120 bhp without nos

The 2.5L turbocharged inline five-cylinder engine generates 300hp (224kW) at 6,500rpm and 325lb-ft of torque (440Nm)between 2,300 and 4,500rpm. Acceleration from a stop to 100km/h (62mph) takes just 5.9 seconds and the car carries on to a top speed of 263km/h (164mph). Pricing in Europe will reportedly be set at â?¬39,000 ($51,644). Despite the rapid performance, it's fairly efficient, rated at 33.6mpg US (7.0L/100km) extra-urban and 17.5mpg (13.4L/100km) in town for a combined average of 25mpg (9.4L/100km), which translates to an average CO2 emissions of 225g/km. Both are due in part to the relatively low 3,227lb (1,467kg) curb weight.

i cant wait either for my engine to be finished still need to get the block notched for the scat rods and get the bottom end race balanced which should help. trying to get some sort of custom air intake and inlet system made up aswell which is proving to be a bitch. as for the night at jays i would say that is very doable for me just let me know when
