what spec was the mk sri turbo vxr blower?
Hi mate that was my car. It was down on power and torque quite a bit. It made 286bhp/360ftlbs on regals rollers.
The operator at Perfect Touch said it looks like the car has a bad map as power/torque are all over the place after 5k and just drops off fast.
This is my spec and graph from today


2.2 AirBox
Collins Dump Valve
Courtenay FMIC
KnN Panel Filter
LEH 470ccm Injectors
Miltek Exhaust
Phase 3 Software
Regal Power Pipe
Regal Pre-Cat
Veccy C
VXR Turbo Charger
Light & Balanced Flywheel
Helix organic clutch & cover

Sounds good, apart from fuelling your power figure seems very very good, what turbo you running?

Cool But yes pushing it on gay fuelling would have meant chocolate piston time.
Get some new injectors and what fuel pump are you running?

ive just got home now as already explained looks like the wire to the fuel pump has a break in it somewhere.
the power figure was 310 in the end but as corb also found out the rollers only record a result every 500rpm and as it was aborted shortly after 6500 it only read back to 6500 and 298, operator said if he had carried on going it would hav pushed 350 but it wasnt worth blowing up
Love the fact he said "it had plenty of go left...the things bloody dangerous...make sure you bring it back"

Is it just me or do the x14xe figures seem a bit high?
Liam X14XE 98.8
Leroy X14XE 96.7/99.0
Warren G X14XE 103.0/98.0
What mods do these have? I would be expecting around 85BHP

There 92bhp std, so a x14xe with a good exhaust would probably be around the 95/96 mark.

X14XE is 90bhp.
Exhaust and Filter can see between 93-100bhp.
Fads "XE 156.3/154.2"
Good torque, but that just shows a rebuild and .50 oversized pistons don't really do anything and is an un-needed expense.....
Always wondered what a standard engine with bigger pistons would do.
*Makes cash saving note* 
Seems like good rollers though... Corb, bit dissapointed fella, thought yours should be running more

fad needed oversized pistons though because of the rebore, because the bores were "slighty scored"

Yeah, i know he scored the bores, but i just meant for people building a NA TB engine and putting all these parts in that arn't really needed.
Isn't that Fads car that he sold though.
If Yes, then thats Fads car, always will be. I remember his first outing, also to a RR day, with 5 spoke alloys.
"its staying standard" he said 
It may be sold, but its still Fads car. 
If its not the one Fad sold, ignore all the above
