And achieved 191bhp @ flywheel 146bhp RWHP

I know it doesn't sound like alot, but considering its standard, and it only had 169bhp in 1993, I'm dead chuffed with that.

Looks like my atmospheric Chav valve and a few tanks of optimax have done the trick. Either that or somethings fecked on the turbo and its boosting to high, but as I dont have a boost gauge, I'm assuming its stock boost :?

1.8

As I said, back when it was made in '93, it had (supposedly) 169bhp @ fly (so god knows what it was @ rear wheels), so over the years it has gained 22bhp. Thats the bit I'm happy about. 116k miles, and its running better than when it was new.

And I wanted to get a figure before I started on the engine. New exhaust is going on this week, as well as an HKS induction. FMIC after that, then its T28, 440cc injectors, Fuel Cut removal chip and possibly a new manifold, should see closer to 300bhp (@fly)

It was done at the SXOC RR day at Streetracers in Leicester.

I thought it was running fine. Boosts well, and doesn't start to tail off til after 6500rpm.

Fuelings spot on by all accounts.
Possibly running a bit rich (slightly low mpg for state of tune, driving style) but nothing I'm worried about.

Mine was suprise of the day. Most people were down on what they expected.

There was another S13 with filter & exhaust, and IIRC it only managed 170 @ flywheel

Chuffed is not the word
