thought i'd let u guy's know, ive booked my tusc in at austec at the beginning of next month. having a full re-map of the ecu, sports exhaust (removal of silencers), geometry setup, and the possibility of head work and induction mods. want custom parts built to replace the naff ones in at the moment.
would like to get it up to 400bhp. they've got a tamora at the moment, with some pleasing results!

Look forward to seeing the results as I'm thinking of going the Emerald route with mine. I saw they'd got someone's 3.6 up to about 375 bhp.

They got mine up to 375.2 bph with 355.3 lb of torque on a 3.6. I have decatt with sport exhaust.

I have a slight missfire at 6000 rpm which Im hopeing will just be the HT leads so it might get to 380.

Depends if yours is a 3.6 or a 4.0.

On the first run, before mods I had 358 BHP with the decatt and the sports exhaust. The real difference is in the the mid range where the power band had been moved lower down in the rev range, which mean more power earlier.

Paul has some other things up his sleaves, but I think he is trying these out before he releases the mods. As I recall they are difference injectors, Carbon fibre trumpets (Mark Adams said he was hopeing they would restore the mid range power at around 3000 RPM) and he is working with Tim Lamont to get a K&N filter built.

I will have the K&N, and Im looking at the injectors once Paul has the results and makes sure there are no reliance issues (as he put it)...

I recon 400 bhp from the 3.6 is achievable with all the mods maybe sometime soon...

Expect to pay around £1k with the injector cleaning and bits
