So if you can tell me how to find another 37 horse or so with the remainding £900 id be a happy man.

Engine consists of;
Newman PH3 cams
Head Work
Polished and Ported TB
4-2-1 mani
Magnex exhaust
Custom airfilter and pipe
Chipped ECU

maybe it was specifically made to make power all way through rev range as apposed to at the top?

when i was last at the dyno people laughed when my mates 2.0 golf made less power than some other 1.8s

but then wonder why he spanks all of them every single time

RR figures quote the highest bhp figure which is more than likely at the top if the rev range, its all about constant power imo all the way from the word go

have you not changed the inlet mani in any way shape or form? i emailed a bloke who claimed 167bhp and he sent me pics of his inlet mani having work on it

why not run TB's?

Mine made 124.9 totally standard on bhp tuners rollers

I dont have trouble using between 180-200bhp

nath106 · 16th May 2009, 21:04

ahh ryan ive pmed you iirc

yeh as said ive never seen anyone with a proven figure higher than 167 but ive never chased figures in the pug world, honda however, doe get me started!

i bet your spec must be awsome!?

got any build up threads/spec lists?

dont wanna hi-jack the thread but i want to build a quick 16v track car and what ive allways thought is that fact that its a 1.6, so is never worth spending the money!?

Ryan^p · 16th May 2009, 21:06

im a bit more than the 160s

nath106 · 16th May 2009, 21:08

Ja, rollers are sceptical but it made 184 when freshly made, so should be a bit more now its freed up (was mapped with 50miles on it) it needs the mapping tweeking so should see a bit more aswell.

nath106 · 16th May 2009, 21:53

thats damn awsome mate!

i dont surpose you were at brands hatch on the 20th of feb?

if so did you see a lil white s1 bombing round?

did you get my pm ok?

Ryan^p · 17th May 2009, 00:46

Nah last time i was at brands was late jan iirc, not driven the car since then as its having an entire rewire of the car because of an electrical fault we discovered/it broke

I posted in the thread about the cams

gouldy87 · 17th May 2009, 13:54

you got 150 bhp at the wheels from a manifold and an air filter?

Ryan^p · 17th May 2009, 13:56
