Woaaaa! Does the owner use that on the road?
Wouldn't want to be too near that when it hits the power for fear of being side swiped when it loses traction.
Still nice job on the before and after. I'll bet the owner nearly wet themself when they saw that graph.

Isn't that pointless except for a race car?

no idea's - probably used for trackdays and stuff at a guess

i reckon it will make about 640 bhp with a better ign system and a bit more boost !!

all that power from only 2.9 litres ! - i wonder what an overbored Noble would make

today i got to go out for a ride

the performance is staggering (once it comes on boost that is !)

we pulled off a roundabout and across a short stretch of dual carrigeway to let it stretch its legs in 4th gear.

lag lag lag then whack and its on boost - the top end power is just something else - a motorcycle was behind us gunning it and he got left for dust

it was showing over 280 kph on the speedo and we were hard on the brakes for the next roundabout

and we never got it into 5th !! - (they do over 200 mph in std form)

looks like i've got another one lined up for a full remap - this one will probably be on Motec

Hi Mike - this would be a German dual carriageway of course!
