I'm not interested in the "I'm building a 5000bhp car at the moment crap either" To me anything over 300bhp to 350bhp is impressive so come on then lets see the hero's
HMMM. SO WHO REALLY IS THE ZONE DADDY?
Moderator: martauto
I've read a lot of threads over the years with this person claiming this and that person claiming that as far as the power of their car goes. More of it is just talk rather than facts so i was just wondering who the Zone dady was as far as BHP goes. I know there are a few cars knocking on the 250bhp door including my old Msport, but is there any cars here pushing dady figures?

This is not a my car is faster than yours thread. I just genuinly want to see what we have on the Zone. I'm sure there are a couple of people with nice bhp who dont brag about it.
Dips dont count either cause his engine will cost as much as almost all the cars on the Zone put together (No offence intended to anyoe on the Zone)
One day i will find me a rich lady who will pay for a Lambo engine to be fitted in my E30, but for now i'll stick to my 2.7

I had a 360 BHP koenig turbo e30 about 8 years ago.

Was that 360bhp with your Donkey pulling it Pete

Ben, how many ponies is your Reiger pulling now? Saw the feature in PPC mag, did you sort the injectors yet and had it back to Dave Walker?

BrianMoore is the zone daddy. He's responsible for more horsepower on the zone than anyone else.
Ant is the heir to the throne.

Ponies. Mate it's running Arabian speedsters nowBen, how many ponies is your Reiger pulling now? Saw the feature in PPC mag, did you sort the injectors yet and had it back to Dave Walker?
No i havent done anything to it yet. My mate is still trying to run it in then get them changed and then a dyno. Expecting near 400bhp with a few more tweeks and then 150bhp of Noz, so that will take him to the big boy 500bhp+ mark.
Erm the point of the thread is to find out who has the most powerful cars on the Zone. Not who has built them or helped others. Like i siad, i know of a few around the 250bhp mark, but i havent heard or seen anything much over that except for the 600bhp one for sale in the For Sale section

I think thats what Morat was trying to say.... that you've helped so many people keep their cars on the road, if you add it all up thats alot of HP.

there's a geezer on here who had the good sense to transplant some quality jap metal under the bonnet of his E30 in the form of a Supra TT lump, think it was running near to 600bhp and successfully managed to tear the diff from it's mounting 
I guess forced or non forced induction. It dont really matter. I was Just interested in the cars with the biggest power here.
I think Patrick is up there too with his M5 lump and i know he's looking at 100bhp Noz set up as well so that's another one in the 400bhp+ club.

Bajandaan or something is his screen name
I'd imagine Fuzzy's got one of the most tuneable for cheap power lumps... I remember seeing an E30 in Max Power 14 years ago with a YB Cossie conversion was in the running for car of the year, its what started my love affair with anything E30 or from Costin and Duckworths portfolio

There is so much more to a car's performance than how much hp.
