    Guess the BHP contest

    As some of you know, I have had a bit of tuning on the horizon for little Willy 217 for a few months. Tomorrow (assuming I don't have any more last minute problems) should be the day it goes off to Stan (Craig) at AP Developments where it will go under the surgeons knife for a bit of lift and tuck

    Before work is started, Craig has said he will measure the BHP so we can see the increase, if any (lol) in torque and power.

    I am having a little contest to see who can guess the current power my car is producing at the flywheel (subject to calculation if necessary if power is measured at wheels) BEFORE work is done.

    To give you a fighting chance, I shall list current engine related mods:

    F7R 714 block, about 92000 miles
    F7R 700 recently refurbished head
    ITG panel filter
    Gunner 180 chip with 7100 limiter
    Standard (heat wrapped) exhaust and inlet manifold
    Standard (heat wrapped) downpipe
    Decat pipe
    Straight through unsilenced 2" Supersprint mid section
    Magnex backbox

    Other minor details, but which some super techie people may ask:

    New Pipercross oil filter
    3 BAR oil pressure at idle when cold
    10w 40 Semi Synthetic oil

    So...roll up roll up. 1 guess each and you may include torque if you are feeling confident :D

    Assuming Craig has no problems with me doing it, I may do the same for the 'post-surgery' results as well.

    It will be interesting to see what the Wobbamobile has been pushing out till now.

    The winner gets a Wobbahug @ FCS :D
