Title: #220bhp+++
Post by: musmart on December 23, 2014, 04:55:18 PM: Its very encouraging to see our little underrated forfours breaking through the 220+ bhp which am sure its the beginning of more to come out of them as we gear up into the fueling upgrade and forged internals.
For now want to invite more owners into the 220+ group.
So far members are

Post by: paul1974 on December 23, 2014, 11:07:15 PM: With better manifold better turbo mines a bit worn ..and cold air induction and inter cooler .,with a blowing manifold mine was 190.9 HP so it should be better..

Post by: Wangswong on December 25, 2014, 10:50:35 PM: Well, we shall see.
Epic work by all involved with their "babies". Much envy for you all having active brabs. Breaks my heary walking past her every morning and not being able to turn the key :(

Christmas prezzies to myself include -
Grimmspeed boost controller
Sard FPR and
Devils own WMI kit.

We'll see how long she lasts once running :)

Title: Re: #220bhp+++
Post by: Wangswong on August 25, 2016, 09:54:22 PM: Lol. Who actually has the record on here?
Not for the bragging rights. Just out of curiosity.
I assume the racing 44?
Title: Re: #220bhp+++
Post by: Big Brab on August 25, 2016, 10:14:24 PM: I am not to sure buddy it depends on who's Dyno you go on, some people set dyno's up differently giving different results.
The only way to find out is everyone goes on the same dyno.
I am at 216bhp 244lbtf but once I get my tubed/ banana manifold fitted with my new intercooler and aircon delete I am talking it to a local dyno to see what it makes on that.
Al keep you updated.
Title: Re: #220bhp+++
Post by: Wangswong on August 25, 2016, 11:05:37 PM: Never been on a dyno. Only had one car worthy of it prior to the 44 which was a gto twin turbo. Well, maybe my old Fiesta RS but, by modern standards, its pretty poor.
Well done on the build bte. Be proud of it :)
