Blimey i threw one away a few years ago when i upgraded. What a fool i was. I was only looking for around the 400bhp mark. I should have kept the 35

I'm the owner of the uk. We had the rolling road day at PK Tuning in Lincoln, they were testing out their new software which we knew but everyone's read outs were pretty much spot on.
My mates STi figures were pretty accurate, then I did my run and somehow it got miscalculated somewhere at 471bhp (410 at the wheels).
Using the torque figures of 334 I've now worked it out myself to be around 328 at the wheels.
I'm currently running a vf35 with full 3" s/s decat system, Apexi induction with bigger intake, fmic, inlet spacers on an Apexi fc management, all mapped my FB Tuning
My mates STi who is also on here and I'm sure will post himself soon, is running identical spec to me but with 900 injectors and on Meth and made 395 at the wheels

Seems crazy people buying the latest billet range of turbos for numbers people dream off when a £300 OE Turbo will suffice..

No offence Op, but Haven't the "Nominations for the dumbest threads of 2013" not already been submitted 
Dear god, how do we all sleep at night knowing that we've bought standard motors with VF35's that are capable of 450bhp on pump gas with a remap, yet we've all spent thousands on mods ;(. Next news will be standard STI Brembo's are better than a top dollar AP setup

I tell you what take it to another rolling day and if you achieve those figures again I will pay for the run personally and I mean that. imho there is not a cat in hells chance a vf35 will make those figures, I'm at those figures on a twin scroll LM450, if you stuck it by the side of a VF35 it would make it look tiny and that's on it's upper limits on pump fuel.
Operator has got it wrong somewhere imho

Don't take offence by the comments, most are talking of first hand experience. In fact all the people whom have attempted a 400+bhp newage STI have swapped the VF35 out after already pushing the VF35 to its limit, and in some cases to the point it's shat itself at 360-370 mark.
All parts have a threshold, and a limit!
It would be interesting to know the spec of the rest of this so called VF35 monster
Sorry to **** on your chips pal, It didn't happen FACT!
...., and as said above I'd happily pay half the costs of the next RR to PROOF that this cannot be done.

Simple physics says it's not possible....Like rob says, Dodgy probe location or use of the handbrake/brakes or one of the many other ways you can fudge results being the operator of the dyno, You don't need me to tell you that you can get what ever figures you want if you know how to manipulate it, Did they get handed a graph showing these figures ??

From what I read on the skylineowners thread one of the Classics was run without the operator using the Fan.
It also appears a Vauxhall Zafira(not sure what model)made nice numbers too, just short or 300bhp!
I'd love to see a dyno plot also...
