    I think before bhp fly about get it on a dyno that's not been urm fiddled ;-) then we can see what it's running :-)

That's called the key - you keep it hidden ;)

I seen it at inters a few years back , sounded awesome :)

Always wondered what it would be like from already rolling at 60/70mph

Off the mark it got destroyed by awesomes apr stage 3 cars (340bhp)

And others :D

But the noise is awesome it really is :)

And unless ur on a quarter mile run ur unlikely to be racing stuff from standing

This one yeah

Thanks for pictures!

Yes the tubby is a little large if I'm honest..and I probably wouldn't have gone so big if I built it.

This car will not win any 1/4 mile sprints..1st and second are just too fast when the turbo kicks in.

Torque steer is a problem too..it all happens so quick.

TBH I'm not bothered if it has 600 or 400..I just want to know its running fine.

The car will never see 2.2 bar boost while I own it..or gas either.

I'm no dyno queen..I just enjoy what I've got while I've got it..

Driving it is what's it all about..

Still chuffed to bits with it.

Oh and I didn't pay 7.5k..

:-)

If it puts a smile on your face then objective achieved :thumbup:

Holy ****! 

 

If only all JBS mani's where like that ...

Liking the idea of switchable maps though...

Did you get bill to do it or Nikki?

I'd be interested in swapping the turbo for a small one to help with widen the powerband.

As long as your enjoying it that's the main thing.

Niki at R-Tech mapped my car,it's awesome.

Lovely smooth idle,no rattles on the steering wheel and around the cabin due to increasing the idle duty slightly!

It's little things like this that make the difference!

No idea tbh

 

I seem to recall their K0X manis' are made by tig-art or someone like that, and rebranded JBS

 

That's a supposedly equal length T25 flange mani -  from this JBS car

Mega motor mate, would love to see what r-tech could do to this.

Have you booked in for Castle Combe 14th Sept ?

I saw this was up for sale.  Credit due to you for buying this as I'm not sure I have the cojones to buy such a car.  You're definitely committed to the cause. :thumbup:

 

edit : If you ever fancy a drag race up to say 30mph, let me know.  After that I'd ease off so as no to embarrass you of course. ;)

Just park up on the stand so people can admire her. Bring a lid and you can passenger with me if you like

It sounds a monster, but just a bit too OTT for fast road use.
