If they work off the OBD port,then yes, Roger would have unplugged this to plug in his computer. Have a feel under the dash, and you should find the socket, and the plug dangling nearby. smile
Its just under steering colum

laugh I think it's called an added level of security, for those who aren't using the full capacity of the inlet tract. wink

Random question, after the rolling road session my gauges on the dash have decided to stop working! Only thing I can think of is Roger reset something or unplugged something before the run. Not sure if that would have done it? Any ideas?

These are the added twin gauges on top of the dash, not the normal cluster!
Ooops!. Might be my bad. Plug will be tucked out of the way of Charlies feet to the left and above the OBD port (below cover under the steering column in line with the column)

I'm waiting to see what WP say/estimate what RWHP I'll get if I put a CAM. If R8black has 420 with a MF CAM, with my 388, assuming that's not crammed, I should get nearer





It'll have to be a mighty large cam to make 62bhp will it not, is that even possible from just a cam change

I know its a different engine but on the LS7 Katech are quoting over 120whp gains from one of their street cams, whether you get that much or not is irrelevant for the claim to stand it must be a huge increase all the same. Its not that big a cam either

Well, as a crude calc, I've just taken a low 15% increase on my RWHP figure, which in theory, should be achievable ?

Plus the WP CAMs are are a bit bigger

Your cammed motor made 50bhp more than my LS3 made last year at SRR, so 62 isn't so impossible smile

Your 420 was quite impressive! thumbup

Not really LS3 has good heads and displacement anyway.

Plenty of results out there with way more than 62, over 70 here from a 227 cam.

With a good tune Id say Tattoo should get 450 depends on cam totally.
