Right then, Great day had. Big big thanks to Gary @ APT for showing me there is more than one way to skin a cat on the rollers (and his way is far better than that of a local rival company btw) :thumb:


I arrived hoping/wishing/praying for 400bhp/ftlb at the fly, knowing that this was really pushing the limitations of a standard internal'd GT4 engine.


Result - 370bhp and 405ftlb :twisted:


We could have pushed a little more to get the bhp figure up, but I think that boost at 1.8bar peak will do for now :o


I am a very happy chappie. The drive home was fun, a whole new beast, until I had a heart wrenching moment - the power went completely while on boost, I knew what it was tho, she *broke* a clamp on the IC pipe work.


Roll on Wednesday :-D

Amazing result Tony :notworthy:

You are going to thrash me on Wednesday as I am still down at 1.2 bar :(

What were the wheel figures out of interest?
