    do you actually have ANY imperical proof of this, OTHER than what Andy has told you?

    The facts:

    RSTuning HAVE got a perfectly running supercharged 172, with no calibration issues.

    I really dont see how you can make such subjective statements based on what one person is telling you.

    Not trying to start an argument here, but try and look at the full facts, not heresay.

    And this is totally unbiased, so please dont think im just sticking up for Paul, as ive no reason to do that.

    I know what happened to pauls car, and if you look at it logically, it wasnt mapping related!
    The same thing could have just as easily happened with an engine controlled by Omex, or Emerald, or whatever. It was a mechanical failure that comes with the territory unfortunately.

    As for Rotrex and Renaults, I built a S/C spider with a rotrex 2spd charger at the beginning of the year. Goes well, 311bhp with just 0.5bar boost.

    Can have better boost spread over rpm range...makes it less proportional i guess.

    Had headwork, low-comp forged pistons, custom cat cams.

    This was only at 6000rpm aswell.
    Theres a bit of tweaking about he's doing with the pulleys, then revving to 7500rpm with more boost. Should see a fair whack more power/torque, the engine itself is certainly capable of it.
