That was on just Optimax, no booster.
Aren't you the guy whose engine went boom within a few days of you buying it?

Are we to assume you've now had your car remapped for UK fuel and are monitoring knock and AFR, or are you risking another expensive trip to the workshop?

They said the fueling was excellent. It had just had an uprated fuel pump fitted. What are your thoughts on a mini meet?

Yes I'm the same guy. The car was not detting at any revs throughout the session today. The engine blew because of a fcuked fuel pump.
No I haven't had a remap. Though I will be having a knock link fitted soon.

a fuel pump heh unbeleivable all though i did have a st24 that went boom becouse of a water pump failure

anyway glad you are pleased about your power maybe you can have some fun even though you may be a little nervous i know i was after my my00uk went boom and i had it rebuilt

its funny though that even though you have had an engine failure you`r still looking for more power i know i did up to 320 ish and soon to go 350ish

not putting a dampener on things but aren't PE's rollers renowned for producing high outputs??

all the same good power whatever

it does make you wonder about some engines, I had an Escort RS Turbo Series 2 that recorded 185 hp @ the wheels at John Wilcox Engines and all that had was a zaust, air filter, group A turbo all fitted by Severnvalley but it was still runnin a standard chip and 10psi of boost

everyone has told me that's not possible???
