Not to sure on being the most powerful but most lilkely the one with the most problems :) . Anyway i had it tuned a few weeks back and it made some good power 405hp on 20psi . ill hook my scanner up one of these days and throw up the dyno graph . At the moment the car is sitting in the shed with a few issues that need to be sorted .

yeah major issues .. it broke the adjustable cam wheel off the end of the ex cam ! :x while it was under boost , which u all know what that means.. a head full of bent valves and whos knows what else .
The plan is to have it pulled down and go through it and find out what the hell went wrong , obviously somethings locked up under load to cause that .

I'll give you another 400+ HP graph in the new year Dave when I get mine back on the rollers in the new year and crank some boost and cam/ ignition timing into it - running it all on E85 :wink:

We're coming out blazing in 2011 - 2010 can frock off as far as I am concerned, its been an absolute cvnt of a year as far as I am concerned. I will be running fresh rubber, have data aquisition on board and big power and brakes all sorted now.

Here we come. :)
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.
