I think it mentioned a backwarded calc of 228bhp and 165hp atw. (which is rather healthy considering the std is 145hp at the FW)


If it was 165atw, 228atf, then they are calculating based on around a 27% transmission losses. Isn't that awfully high for 2wd vehicle.


i have to agree with you on that one :thumleft:
before ECU etc i always put it around the 200 ish make but was nto worried at teh time as said it was not finished/right and never read the drag due to the head gasket blowing due to detonating due to no ecu ....... a few mods (afm removal dizzy removal etc) and ecu saw a big big hike in power trust me

I don't have an obsession with putting it down, I just want to know what power it made (with proof) as I'm very intersted in how they got it from the std sc unit.

As I said above
hopefully i'll be proved wrong with a dyno plot


Thats hardly putting it down.


give him a ring and he will be happy to provide.... :thumleft:
