Where did you get you upgraded radiator from?
I should have added....'Bar the upgraded radiator'!

All of these upgrades only yielded 445ps (=438.90 hp), MRC advised me that was all the expected from a car with Cats and variable veins. They also ensured that the auxiliary radiator was cooled prior to conducting the final runs, as the initial runs only yielded 405ps. So I know hot air was not a factor.

The car was Dyno'd again with DMS, and confirmed 440hp (=446ps) with MRC map.

I then had it Re-mapped by DMS (I have both dyno charts from DMS and MRC (Hard copy only, but I'm sure MRC would be happy to supply a soft copy))

Everyone has been a sceptic until they've seen it... and it's HP not BHP

Ok here's something tangible; I can hold station with a GT3RS.....

Please read the history on the Blog... I understand that you may not believe it, but all I can suggest is that you go to SPA, Silverstone or Nurburgring and see the proof for yourself... Many have!!

Why i have my own that made 460ps at mrc,i only asked to clarify as you claimed 470 but low torque figures didnt add up,but if your car makes 438ps like mine used to it explains the torque being down

I don't see how your cai is so much more effective than the ones all ready being used that's my point

+1

Very interested to know the differences also. My car did 464.6 and 513nm back in Jan with no cats and stage 1 manifold.
Had another clean, stage 2 manfifold and spacers done, only did 450 and 500nm's last Friday at MRC. Ambient temps were obviousley
alot higher and borometric pressure was lower but still hoped for more.

I've just converted the exact Horse Power and Torque figure:

Horsepower to PS (Metric HP)
Horsepower: 469.7 HP = 476.22 PS

lb/ft to Nm (torque)
Foot Pounds: 348 lb/ft = 471.29 Nm

I hope this makes more sense now?!

start a fresh "blog" Poor old Ricks thread is getting bastardized beyond believe.

You can host images on www.photobucket.com or use the sites image uploading tool, very straight forward.
