I'm just beginning to mod me FRST, so far got Powerflow Exhaust, K&N, Piper Cam, Magnecor Leads, Platinum Plugs, EBC discs & Pads.

Can't get to a rolling road for bout 5 months, anybody know what BHP I'll be pushing out and what mods would you recommend next.

Cheers....

You don't mention what boost you are running?
Was the cam set up?
Guess at the mo 135-140bhp

id say 140bhp for a guess :rolleyes:

but yeah.... we need more info... :rolleyes:

ebc discs are crap.. Magnacor leads-waste of money-u can`t go wrong with the ford leads. Cam won`t add much unless u run more boost+u need a vernier. 165 chip+actuator is the best mod from standard-anymore and you`re stretching the standard engine.. Mileage??

Snake....you beat me :wink:

Get rid of the EBC discs and magnecore leads!!!!

when you do get it set-up do not push your standard turbo passed 13-14psi.

cheers :smile:

i think ul have bout 135 bhp. what boost u running? as above chip, actuator and sum beige injectors r ur best bet for about 160 bhp

The car is running standard boost and got a vernier pulley with me cam kit (Piper 285T2).

The garage said the cam was set up but still want to get it done in England when I'm next over. Looks like next thing on shopping list is gonna be a chip, was thinkin Ahmed Bayjoo???

Cheers :smile:

Sorry, forgot to mention the mileage, 45000.... :sad:

by **Fezzy Turbo** on Wed Dec 12, 2001 4:01 am

You wont need Beige injectors for a 165 chip, (stage1). If you want more than that you will need to upgrade more parts.

Why you sad about your mileage ? 45000 is nothing!!.........I have 126,300 miles :aaah:

There is a bottleneck straight away

The PIPER T2 cam is designed for a engine running 14.5psi, standard boost isnt enough to make use of the cam, a Piper T would be more appropriate on that boost..

I've got a Piper T2, it ran like a donkey on 10psi and less, then when ran on 15/16psi it was amazingly quick.. Just a thought

Sorry, was supposed to be a smiley face.

Well the cam's just gone in so that's stayin. Looks like the boost is gettin turned up with chip etc, but will leave to the pro's to sort out. :cool:
