Default VOSA Question 13b

This is for the T16 turbo boys.

The answer is 197bhp at 6550rpm.

197 BHP in a 800KG car. Sounds good. Even better when your getting to the stage to fill in the forms!

Had a thought though. No sure what the question ask's. But that BHP figure is going to be more as it's not a standard exhaust.

John,

For only a few quid you can get 240 bhp.

Speak to Grant at www.gb-ent.com

Cheers!

John

Does the increase BHP figures matter to the answer you put on the form?

Or is the question donor car standard power?

hi john

I also have been looking at boost controllers with veri rate fuel pressure contoler so i dont burn my pistons out.

One make i was looking out is a duel valve that allows normal boost to mantained (using standard rover boost controler) but at the flick of a switch boost can be increased without the high cost of the electronic boost controllers.

here is one site that does them

all the best
