My car was rr on same day as brosters with the same mods i got 105 bhp it then lost 5 bhp on another rr 2 weeks later. Think there is a lot of billy bullshiting done somewhere? It then gained 10 bhp with corection of cam timing and unichip

i have emailed velos to get some questions answered
velos said the torque-tube was origionally designed with standard rev limit in mind the power kicks mostly from 5000rpm up to 6800 rpm although some rev limits are different, but it DO'S improve drivability throughout the rev-range and mid-range very very well making it just as good as the lexmaul if not better, he also admitted yes raised rev limit will make the engine benefit massively but 90% of customers love it with standard limiter.
he said best results are at high revs although u will see improvements from 0-6500 rpm and excellent power gains
if u de restrict the engine like the velos/mantzel does theres no way it will only improve high revs it will improve the wholoe rev range but better at high revs meaning mid-range too
to me the lexmaul gives good gains although not good enough as it is basically a sawed off re-channelled an painted standard inlet all the air still follows same route just misses 3 chambers
