    sorry to disappoint guys but i don't believe for one second that my car produces that figure.

    it was an enjoyable day and the guys there were very helpful but i'm not producing that figure.

    the only thing you can compare really is how the car compared to the other cars there, same day same dyno.

    oh, walter, ringmeister? i truly wish!!

    very true but then look at chris's standard T4 figures. 20bhp more then standard.

    T4's tend to overshoot standard figs, jacquelines was over standard when we had it at DASTEK years ago for a unichip, it made 15-20 over standard on the "before" run up and they could only get 9 extra bhp out of it

    they removed the hardware and refused to charge us for any work that would only yield 9bhp, it's around 400 bhp now mnind you, but the credit lies elsewhwere for that lol.

    interesting what you say about the S40 Ross.

    the spec of my car can be found over in the garage on T5D5

    http://forums.t5d5.org/index.php?&au...ew_item&CID=57

    i've actually come home just now having hooked up with some friends of friends. a couple of integra type Rs, an EVO fq330, supercharged mazda mx-5 and a BMW Z3M(the breadvan coupe thingy). went out for a "tunnel run".

    although we didn't try anything from a launch, my car would have been the slowest one there without a shadow of a doubt. what we did do though was start from 60ish.

    i was quicker then the ITRs but held the EVO and Z3M all the way to 130(obviously km/h). this wasn't done once but at least 4 or 5 times.

    most cars had a driver and a passenger, including mine. what that says about the power of my car i don't know, don't really care, i'm just enjoying the car.

    a T5 estate has got to be loads heavier than an EVO or Z3M so that makes it even more impressive
    get used to it irf, stop being so conservative

    on T5D5 Jod, it's not pretty though lol. there's a couple of "holes" but should be easy to sort out.

    personally, on a dyno dynamics rolling road(ie. real figures) i reckon i'd be quite close to 300bhp or maybe just slightly over.
