Quote Cockernee
Headline numbers from the exhaust are +33BHP so from 507 to 540 BHP @ 7000rpm
Torque up 40Nm across the rev range & 591Nm @ 6100rpm
Plus then the cams...up to the next step...and then 200 cell cats...mind boggling...but VERY tempting

OK, the headline numbers with cats changed surprisingly not as much as anticipated. We expected another 10bhp, but only managed 5 bhp over runs. The only difference is the noise it makes now is slightly louder and deeper, so will post up on youtube a new clip.
The car has maxed out at 570BHP & 600Nm of torque.
So that is it folks, tomorrow I drive it and get to see the graphs that I will post up.
Shame the new Vanquish could only make 565bhp really
I will be able to do a back to back test with them both ![wink](/inc/images/wink.gif)

Bonkers.
It will be very close to the original 'V12 Vantage RS' prototype then.
Should be savage.
Would you like someone (ie me!) to come and film it for you?
Could even offer a back to back comparison (maybe side by side would be better!) with my slow old bog standard car!
If you are around tomorrow about 1.00pm, I am picking it up then.![eek](/inc/images/eek.gif)

Very gracious offer John, don't think I can sort it out today. Perhaps another time and I'll bring up my car for comparison.
I'm also interested in having something similar done (tuning always slips nicely under Mrs P's radar!).
However I also think that your first drive in a 570bhp V12 Vantage is a moment for you and the car alone.
More people have walked on the moon than driven a car of that spec!
Enjoy.
I look forward to your reports and hopefully videos.

:Not had my phone call from Cockernee yet....
He's probably stopped off and done a quick bank job to pay for it all. A quick blag, hide the shooter, a bundle of used fifties, a few veiled threats, an affectionate slapping of the face whilst using the phrase 'me old china', some jellied eels, praise for the Kray Twins and everyones a winner.I know these Cockernees ya' see. He never done nuffink, right?
