OK. 182 is a max of 179 BHP, probably more like 175. Based on the FR7 lump the 182 engine is basically a tuned version. The 172 was tweaked and the 182 tweaked more, each time limiting the amount of power than it achievable from the engine over its base level. Yes?
So do you think its possible for GDI to extract a further 30 bhp from the following mods?
Piper Fast road cams
headwork and matched manifolds
Pro-speed exhaust
ITG maxogen filter
SMT6
Larger Fuel injectors
Power peaked at 205 bhp, at 6500 rpm and 7000 rpm
Personally i think its bollox. proably 185-190 bhp at the most.
