[gavinnblake]

well droped off my rx7 at wgt today 16June2010 for dyno
 

[turbotoaster]

what are you expecting power wise, around 500bhp?

[gavinnblake]

mmmm i think around 450ish

[ENVYD]

seen this pick on facebook, looks canny!
 
just get it to 500 man or i will swap engines with you?

[turbotoaster]

why only 450?

[ENVYD]

to fast for him, he likes the looks and not the power! still getting used to it as his last car was a 1.4 saxo! so canny jump lol!

[gavinnblake]

lol! no
 
i am not going to tell you what bhp itis going to be lol

[ENVYD]

That\'s what you told me! You said you baught it because of its looks and not its power, and its scared you, that\'s why you drove it for the first year with it limited to 4\'

And you just said that its going to be running 450? :s

[ENVYD]

just thought, when do you get it back? there is a cruise on the 27th me and my mate scott are going, he has a black rex, you should come with us! i can head up with you since you live around the corner?

[turbotoaster]

well a t88 on it, if it came away from a mapper with only 450bhp id be extremely upset, unless theres a good reason(not enough fuel)

On a t78 id expect 500bhp at 1.2bar and on a t88 id be wanting around 530-540bhp at the same boost

[mattfduk]

Some people arent power crazy though Lee, just because its been done doesnt mean everyone should want to do it.
 
If you want to chase figures go for it but I would rather have a car that car say kick out 450HP long term over a car that makes 500HP but at the limit

[turbotoaster]

maybe true but i wouldnt really call 1-1.2bar the limit, id just say thats a nice amount of boost on pump fuel with which ever water injection setup he has on it.

Id imagine he would have 2 boost settings, 1bar then 1.2bar if hes chasing a supercars.

Its just if hes gonna run a big turbo he may aswell make use of it properly, if not sell it and bang a gt35 on there
