    Rolling road

    My car is booked in for a power run and AFR on sat, fancy a guess on power?

    spec is:

    850 T5 manual
    19t compressor, straight outlet exhaust
    De-cat
    Custom cat back
    generic remap @ 1.1 bar
    white injectors
    RamAir induction
    2.5inch stainless rip
    V power Nitro

    I think that's it other than stage 0, I will be happy if it breaks 300 at the crank...

    I'd hope for 300 for you mate but they seem a bit hit & miss.
    I'm guessing 285bhp but good luck & keep us informed!

    the car certainly feels alot faster than my last t5 (its been a while though) that had just over 280 bhp with a 15g but as you said its a bit hit and miss, will see on sat, what ever it is will be fine as it pulls like a train

    The object of this is to guess, as if I knew what it was making, then that wouldn't be guessing. My guess is 270, it's not up to you to decide whether you like my guess or not.
