    What? Only 8 bottles? Pfft. I'd at least want a 20 cylinder Locomotive engine for storing wine in

The SHM block is just for my peace of mind so i don't have to worry about over revving, it doesn't actually add any power. It does allow you to up the power with more boost if you want, but the box won't take too much more power while staying reliable.

    For now at least, plenty is the best answer to how much power and torque it has!
    Hi I think your figures for the BHP are close, I had mine done outside for reasons that suited me at the time. the re map gave me these figures 417BHP but the torque for the car was somewhat different due to the type of S/C a twin screw apparently gives you bags of the stuf again I can only quote my spec and I have just checked my read out
    and it is 475 @ 3391 RPM beat that you screamers (BMW AUDIS AND MERCS) per liter.............ok ok will be proved wrong............but a great feeling when you pass them with the ladders on the roof.........................

    Not too sure how Newton Metres compare to pounds per foot but how does 570 nm at 3000 rpm sound like as that's what I am now getting from my remaped 3ltr V6 Audi A6 Quattro TDI! Still love my 260 though.

    570 Nm = 420 lbs ft
