    Well done Irf

    Good result when is the run on the Dyno Dynamics RR run ????

    LOL, you know it as well as i do Russ, the dyno dynamics rollers are heartbreakers, or should that be ego deflators but the only ones that should be believed for true figures IMHO.

    won't have any more runs unless i do something to the car and that won't be happening anytime soon.

    would rather get a diff make the car quick everywhere(thats the wife chucking a brick at me lol)

    i know where you're coming from Russ.

    the last time the car was on a rolling road it was on a dyno dynamics roller. then it made 278bhp and since then the cars had headwork done to it and an external boost controller. don't think anything else has been done.

    hence my thoughts of about 300bhp on a dyno dynamics roller

    having said all that, it still applies that on the same day on the same rollers the car performed pretty bloody well so very happy with that.

    rr day

    irf just a few points ,, firstly if you think it is over by 40 bhp then that makes everyone elses car over by 40 bhp ,, firstly mine on a dyno dynamics made 310 bhp and 335 lb,s torque , as you know mine at powerstation made 315 bhp and 355lb,s torque, so not alot of difference there but seriously bud accept it the head work and the map from cough cough (lol) well done that man ,,has and does make your car produce a genuine 340 bhp give or take 5 bhp,,,, anyway was a awesome day with some awesome cars there

    yeah, new cars are stupidly heavy.

    i think the estates are heavier then the saloon and it'll also depend on option levels. aircon, electric windows, seats etc.

    my car has the 850R seats and they are fapping heavy! i think someone told me that they had weighed one at 36kg! for one seat!!! be good to know what the half leather weighs
