Sigma 125--Minister Power 160. Anyone tried it?

[ghibbett]

As per the title really. I've seen a lot of talk saying the 1.6 Sigma unit isn't as revvy or as nice sounding as the old 1.6k, however has anyone experienced the Sigma with the Minister Power 160bhp upgrade kit?

I remember someone on Blatchat has had it done, here's a link:

They weren't too happy with the result.

However, there are positive reports about Shawspeed Sigma tuning. There's someone with 200bhp, but it has different rods and dry sump.
I'd give them a call

Thanks for the link - made for interesting reading!!

Emailed Minister last Sunday requesting more information...6 days later and I'm still waiting. Hmmmm

My 150 Sigma was dynoed recently at 138.4 bhp. Someone else's was 143bhp. So don't believe all you read on the tin. On that basis it makes you wonder what a 125 really is?

My Engine Dyno'd Yesterday, 195bhp, using standard exhaust(inc;s Cat!)
Let you know what it drives like, when car back on the road, hopefully next couple weeks, Phil
