Thanks ppl, the dyno run thing was done in Feb 2008 @ PJ Motorsport (before i bought the car), the printouts show 330.8 bhp but needs a remap as its over boosting (and thusly, the engine cuts out & the "check engine" flashes for a nano second) and also heavily over-fueling.... the guy i bought it off couldnt afford to run it due to job change & never got round to doing the re-map and had been running it with AVC-R on "Off" setting as a protection.....
Ive had a little play now on the A / B settings, but keeping it "off" also, until i get a re-map sorted.....hopefully end of september when i got more money & more importantly some time to get there........ so untill then lol im behaving myself very carefully![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Oh, and according to PJ Motorsport, after a re-map & the AVC-R being checked over & poss adjusted, i shud be close to 400bhp but with better fueling... not sure as im new to scoobys but i have a mate with on who says its could be possible after looking it over![Smile](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
... i love it!! soooo glad the RX blew lol

now the stickers i was in 2 minds about peeling off, however, the wheels i love...not so keen on all the scoobys in my area with gold wheels (sorry...each to their own & all that).............im glad to be one of the few (in my area) WITHOUT gold wheels, and love the black
