What's the limiter set at?
Maybe worth thinking about a powerflex rear engine mount? As the engine moved a huge amount off the limiter in the video !
Where you want to go with the car now ?

Thanks mate and thats a really good point about the engine mounts mate Ill have a look into it. Not sure where Ill go from now think I just want to do some finishing touches then Im happy with it so just going to enjoy for a while
The limiter is set at around 7800 pal

the dude has figures from a reputable company.
yes, they may not be 100% accurate, nobody is saying they are. but no need to throw any toys out of the pram because someones got more power than what it "should" be producing...
end of the day, everyones enjoying their cars. so just go drive them and enjoy them
|
Its good to get on the rollers just so you have a rough idea of power and so you can highlight any issues but at the end of the day its how they drive like you say mate.

Cheers for all of the coments Ive not really done much to the car for a while so thought I would give the car a really good clean today as it was so dirty with all of the driving I've been doing recentley. Should have taken a before pic but I forgot lol.
Starting to get used to the power now and Im wanting more, so I need to get saving.
Next plan is to get the wheels done again as they are starting to get chipped but I think I will get them done just before I go to the Nurburgring in September
Anyways hears some pics

OK so I've not been hear for ages as I've started to lose interest with the car. But I thought I would make an effort as its MOT time so I've just given the car a full service and Ill be raising the car so its only dropped to 25mm instead of 40mm as my car is a nightmare on the speed bumps especially when I have other people in. So Ill stick some pic's up when its all done.
Hears a pic from the Nurburgring from when we went in the summer
