Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 26, 2015 Not sure if i asked this before or not, but a while back i bought this item and haven't bothered to fit it during rebuild, not sure if its worth fitting? Anyone had similar fitted for any reason? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 26, 2015 I don't really know what i bought tbh, Car is going to be mapped by Stealth so wondering whether to take it with me to see if it has any benefits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be interesting to see a remapped before fitting and after fitting dyno and evaluate whether its worth the risk of the ecu ignoring knock compared to power gain - if any. I suspect Vince will direct you to a bin located in the corner of his workshop lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Jim are you remapping the as standard car or have you done any mods - would be interested in the before and after for this and if its worth the money. I know you wont get much on the top but hear you get a different feel lower down. Thinking of a sports exhaust then having the remap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 26, 2015 I've got a 2.8 block, 2.9 inlet and throttle body, 263 cams, magnex cat back with a techtonics downpipe (larger bore) and a bmc cda. Can't remember anything else, I'm hoping for at least 192bhp as i've stepped down to the 2.8 block and would like at least standard corrado power.

Chuggs1 10 Posted August 26, 2015 Lets run a sweep on what you will get - Im going 198hp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted August 26, 2015 212BHP for me, loosing 100cc wont have much affect, you still have the inlet mani and TB off the 2.9 engine, plus cams, filter and exhaust. You may lose a little due to the engine being brand new and a bit tight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may lose a little due to the engine being brand new and a bit tight. sounds about right mine made 209.8bhp with the 263's & BMC im tempted to get it done again now ive got the 2.5" SS with hi flow CAT but it would be a fair few £'s for not many more horses Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
