    Thats unbelievable!!!! Woooooo bet thats a handfull. Ten of the best i presume is next outing?

    I was stood next to it when it hit 800+ at TOTD in surrey and couldnt believe how quickly it climbed from 2500rpm onwards!

    So how hard is the 1000bhp mark?

    Well done!!!
    Still here somewhere........

    Bloody hell thats some serious numbers!
    Is that with giggle gas or just on the blowers?



    And we can guess which number you'll be aiming for next.

    Thats days and days of fettling, experimenting, breaking, mending, rebuilding and general heartache there. I just wish I had your budget LOL

    Well done ben!!!

    That figure equates to at least 1300bhp in New Zealand

    very very very impresive.

    if it cost 20K to get 950bhp it could cost another 20K to get that extra 50BHP. a bit of an over exageration but you know what i mean.

    congrats, there is no better advert for you bussines than that. well Done

    Bye for Now!

    Congrats Ben!

    I presume by the fact that you've posted this number that you have now hit the limits of the setup? That's none the less a fantastic number and in new Zealand it would be about 1300bhp!

    Am i the only 1 that thinks.....GAY!!!? What use is 850lbft wouldnt pull you out of bed!!

    Like i said the other day, bloody impressive, shame it doesnt have that extra 40. It was impressive last year when the hoses blew off in elvinton, so hopefully some low 10's will be coming your way.

    Next year should be a laugh, if you do go down the route of seeing how accurate the yank dyno's really are, now that 3l blocks are just boring!

    So when do you want the hole saws?
