See page 1 of thread it talks about 455bhp the toilet talk is here somewhere. I gotta stop reading and posting on here you guys just destroy my decision making one min I'm 4.3 for sure, then 4.5 now i don't know! But as the new breed are going 4.5V8 I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go 4.5SS alsong as Dom reassures me the nice linear torque curve is manageable and doesn't keep me in a spin every time I try to pull away.
Again owners of 4.3/5s please post. If you've had both even better.
I have Dom's 4.5 and love it, far better than the revvy 3.6 IMHO of course as some like the revvy engine, I like the fact that you can burble along just like a V8 and not constantly up and down the gears but when hit the load peddle it flies, see Dyno Results Again owners of 4.3/5s please post. If you've had both even better.

Has Dom changed his rules on warranty ? He told me any exhaust other than Performance supplied ones would invalidate my warranty.
I asked Dom about this, and it is not an issue - he said that it only becomes an issue if, after a bespoke remap, the customer starts to bolt on other stuff, there is a danger of the engine running too lean or rich. As mine hasn't been mapped yet, it is not a problem.chris watton said:

Strange statement from Dom... so what happens with his bog standard/non-bespoke 4.3 or 4.5 chip ?It's just that if you haven't had a bespoke mapping then you are using someone else bespoke ECU chip, with the same spec as your car (or as near to as Jason has) . So you can fit another exhaust but the original car where the bespoke map was performed can't .... It doesn't make any sense to me.
