Guys,
Just got back from Power Engineering off the M4 and chuffed to bits.
Had the K&N Induction kit fitted, (much louder than blow off valve though!), to my STi8 PPP.
304 BHP with 276 lb torque.
I am not a techy but assume this is measured at the wheels as it was done on the RR.

That'll be at the fly... calculated from the figure at the wheels plus transmission losses

Not quite sure,
I need to think about the warranty so am looking for a Lotus 7 replica as track car.
You don't have one do you ?!!!!!!!

sorry to question but 304 !!
with just the PPP you should be making 305bhp with an induction kit & PPP you should be seeing 315bhp

CTRnutter - You'll never get an accurate reading from a rolling road, there are too many variables such as air temp.
I also highly doubt an induction kit will add 10bhp

I would be more worried about the torque figure?

Charge temperatures on the rollers, engine load, induction kit making it underfuel a bit in the midrange... all reasons you could lose torque.

Forgot to mention before..oops.
My ECU is being sent back next week by the dealer because hot intake air over 30 degrees, (not so hot I think!), kicks the boost levels down. This may indeed have affected the stats today.
