Description
I'm the 3rd owner of this car. I bought it in 2003 and used it for a year and had engine failure due to oil pump issues. Then, I decided to tune the car to a different level.
The specs are mentioned below and still tuning the car / boost controller for best settings.
The car produced 346hp / 290lb.ft with below modifications at less than 1.4 bar.
Dyno was DynoDynamics and ambient temperatures were around 30 deg.C and 4 consecutive dyno runs (0.7bar, 1.0bar, 1.2bar & 1.4bar) were carried out. The 346hp was the fourth trial.
Still aiming to raise boost in winter time with fuel race.
