After 8 yrs finally got the STI V3 on the dyno.
Thanks to the Aberdeen SIDC chaps for organising.
Standard STi V3 with decat and K&N - 326bhp
Had I been the only car on the rollers that day I would've questioned the reading - but as there were another 18 cars, including a number of 05 and 06 STi's which were reading pretty close to where they should've been then I'm pretty sure the readings pukka.
Only 2 cars that beat me had serious £'s mods
Max bhp was close to the redline @ just over 7,500 rpm. Ran Optimax and a bottle of NF.
Very pleased given the car has been my regular driver for about 6 years till I got my GTB.
About 57k miles on the clock and in the 8 years the biggest failure was the battery.
I was going to sell it and look for a GTR but now I'm not sure
