4.5 mapped

[mccrae]

4.5 gen 2 mbe
417 bhp at the wheels 😄

[griffdude]

Wow, that's impressive for a NA, over 100hp/litre at the flywheel.

[mccrae]

Yeah happy with that

I let you know what mine makes after the latest round of changes, John. Will hopefully be more.

Btw - You still owe me a gearbox >_>

[roseytvr]

Very impressive at the wheels!!

Is this a stock powers upgrade to 4.5 and MBE or have you done something different?

[mccrae]

It's a 4.5 super sport with new ecu

I know Alex let me know when we can have a catch up mate

Great curve. for comparison my 4.5 with knock mbe made a few less horses but a bit more torque. Its a fantastic drive

Is that on your 4.5 or new "black" engine Al? I too have been bending the ear on these oversized cams... may as well give me the extra 0.2cc while the engines out lol

[mccrae]

It's on my 4.5 mate

[Incognegro]

Understood it was Alex I was asking about his as I believe he has an alternative to our 4.5s... but they are pumping great figures. Really love the MBE even has specific drivers for my saxo leccy PAS conversion.

What is the approximate cost of all this??

[mccrae]

The gen 2 ecu or 4.5 motor ?
About 2800 for ecu
About 10 k for motor with all the goodies

Relatively expensive but well worth it, right?

[mccrae]

Changes the car tbh

[Incognegro]

Well worth it IMO! +£1200 for tcs and launch add on

Well.. Those figures from Power's dyno seem to be what you would get at the flywheel on say Surrey Rolling Road.. Unless you are running on the same dyno, it is kind of irrelevant anyway.. Safe to say a Power's 4.5 is quicker than a standard 4.0.
