took my car to the rolling road shoot just now,
good to meet you again arron! cheers for sorting all that out.
results were, 171bhp at 5200rpm
bloke said its really under fueling after 5200 so hes gonna work his magic on the car.
car has zone chip, bbtb, k&n, straight through powerflow exhaust.
hopefully with it being 171 @ 5200 the bhp will increase when he has played with it as with the zone chip the car revs to 6800, just wonder what the bhp will be at about 6000-6500 once its fueling properly
on the rollers today

lack @ fuel @ top end is 99% of the time down to a non functioning TPS WOT switch, either the car never makes full throttle due to the cable, or the switch is duff
Dont let this guy spend too much of your Ԛ£Ã”šÃ‚£ on this dude, I assume the fuel filter is fresh ?
Clogged injectors is my outside bet, still damn good delivery for a post face engine, typically those make 160 ish max

What did yours make aaron ???

Hmmm, someone had to ask... I haven't got the sheet in front of me but it was 179 at the fly I recall.
Actually, I recall being upset mostly!
They only took it up to 5000rpm though because it was leaning out badly above that so I need to get that sorted. Thinking a remap but cash is a bit tight right now- any suggestions??

1. I assume the 171 was at the flywheel! In which case it's exactly the same as mine, also post facelift.
2. Is revving to 6800 a good idea...? Can't remember exactly where the red is, but thought it was 6500...
