Mine made a very solid 325bhp @ fly, 253 @wheels (thats 4x4 transmission for ya), and 258 ft/lb torque.
I was hoping for a little more, but this is a true reading off a very good set of rollers. I think cooling was a bit of an issure too, what with my std intercooler. So with a bigger intercooler, and possibly some bigger injectors, with a slightly larger exhaust housing on the turbo, I should easily get it up to the 360bhp mark!
Also looking at the air/fuel graph, the car runs quite rich up until around the 5k mark, then goes on to run lean. I was told I could melt something on a top speed run, i.e. held at 6k in 5th for a while, but is fine belting it through the gears, so maybe some more power to be had with a remap aswell.
All in all, its making ok power, the engine isn't even breaking a sweat, as its built for 400bhp with the cmpression etc... and the transmission can easily handle it, and its all pretty safe, which is better for reliability. Smiley

Thik Daz made around 280bhp.

Yeah, was an excellent day.................. long day as well!!!! We were there about half 8, and were the last ones to leave at about 6 lol!!!! Was good tho as said, just a shame Performance Ford turned up late and never got any pics of Churchy's or Daz's cars on the rollers!! D'OH!!

But yeah, a very nice 280bhp was had from the Smokestone Saph! Cheesy lol

Fair enough mate, it took soooo long to get some of the cars set up and running on the rollers!!! At least yours and Daz's cars were on and off the rollers within a few mins!
