Thats great news, very impressive result. Bet you are well chuffed. You had a chance to give it a test on the roads, bet its a real joy to drive

I guess you meant 196 atw and 230-240 at the fly, unless you have done something VERY clever to the transmission!!!

What does the graph look like? Would be interesting to see how it compares to a stock 180.

Steve is a bit chuffed. It's actually 196bhp@ hubs. And approx 234bhp @ fly.

The torque low down is not as good as a std car being 140ftlbs however it increases to over 160ftlbs and holds it to over 6000rpm.

Peak power is at 6800rpm and revs to 7200rpm.

It has made what I predicted and I'm more than pleased with the final result.

250-260bhp achievable with 285 cams and head work.

It is completely docile to drive and when you stamp on the throttle it revs to 7k in a blink of an eye and sounds awesome.

It's been a long haul but a good result.

Is this something that Steve is tempted to pursue? Would top it off as an awesome Nasp build!! Bet it sounds phenomenal at 7000rpm

How do you feel the internals would hold up if pushed to 250-260?

Reckon Steve is gonna be spending a few quid on petrol this month, I know I would be if it was mine, any excuse to go for a drive!!

I think Steve will have the car back for a year and then maybe pursue it.

The std Internals are well up for 260bhp Nasp.

Steves going on holiday and has asked me to run the car for a month to make sure it has no gremlins.

awesome bhp gain for just a visless plenum and standalone ecu.....poor torque though, it wouldnt matter on a track engine but for road it will mean stirring the box more than normal, i guess vis is king for torque but not for bhp......doesnt matter, as i think steve will be driving like hes on a track just to hear it ,lol.
Get it down pod, see what top speed it pulls.
