My mechanic phoned me today as he took my 2.7 to be have the fueling setup on a dyno so i can run my engine in. It was making 170 bhp at just over 4K but not sure what the torque figure is yet till i look at the graph tommorow. Didn't think that was to bad beings it still got standard cam, exhaust and throttle body on it. Hopefully will reach 200bhp when run in.

Sound's great mate but was it really a good idea to put a new engine on a dyno when it need's to be run in first? 
It's alot of money to go down the drain if it goes bang!

170 bhp at 4k is very very good.
Sounds promising.
Keep us updated of what it makes when its running ok.

yeah jonbouy it was only dynoed up to 4k max just to set up the fueling didn't go past that at all.
Will do M5pilot when run in a few bits and bobs from shop will help to get over the magic number
