Default Just been on the dyno, and made...

530BHP & 844 NM of torque.

Not had a chance to drive the car yet, pick it up tomorrow.

Spec is.

Full Milltek Downpipes
Catback res Milltek
RS2 spark plugs
MRC/ITG high flow air filters
MRC Stage two engine and TCU remap
Sub 4 sec 0-60

I expected the BHP to be a lot higher, at least 540 BHP. But the car was running a diluted mixture of crap fuel/T99, and one of my intercoolers has the slightest leak, which is being fixed.


Pick it up tomorrow.

Us all a little jealous... But then again, I was doing 40mpg for a laugh earlier today

Nice torque figure and not a bad power gain on standard turbos.
Would you have to upgrade to hybrids for more power?

Standard turbos will do 550 BHP, you need to change the manifolds to get past that. Amanda's Loba turbos are rated to 650 BHP, but on standard manifolds it's hard/impossible to get past 550 BHP. I would rather spend the money going for the V10 version which go to 700 BHP, 900NM with just a remap then replace internal engine bits. Amanda however loves the C5 so is going for the full 650 BHP. The highest I've seen dyno on standard turbos/manifolds is 558 BHP with the same spec as mine but it also had Wagner intercoolers which are twice as big.

Tesco super unleaded doesn't get the best write up either - generally not well regarded against a proper high octane fuel. Mind you since shell have chosen not to ship v-power at the moment it's a bit tricky to find super anywhere! Filled mine up with 95 as fed up looking for dregs at stations wherever I go!

Power results sound pretty good to me - I'm sure that'll be felt on test drive, along with single figures economy if you use it all lol

Yeah, I hope I can feel the change, my wallet certainly will.
Adrian, Tesco Moumentum 99 is regarded by most on SRS as the best fuel and rated much higher then V Power. Throney Motorsport done a test with that vs V Power and T99 came out much better. Also, MRC have had cars on 95 RON on their dyno then they put in T99 and they get about 20 BHP more.
I have been rocking BP 97, but manages to squeese in £97ish of T99 today, tanker was just leaving with 'Moumentum' written on the side of it as I entered the petrol station.
