    70 bhp over the original power figures from new....but yours is a pre facelift which had around 260 bhp not 280 bhp which came from the facelifts

    Since then a few of your horses have fled the stable over those years..........

    i have them mods including uprated fuel pump, custom 2.5" to 3" downpipes, full 3" system, and i doubt very much i have anywhere near 350bhp. id say more likely to be 300ish as mine is also a pfl and a manual

    or maybe your boost is wound up to dangerous levels, i only run 1.1 bar

    350 on stock turbos has only been achieved three times in the UK to my knowledge. Again, sorry Ken, but it is a claim that needs proof on here to be trusted.

    ken, why don't you com down to eurosepc and on the 22nd march and put it on the dyno, if there is space for you.
    i think it might be quite full up but there might be some cancellations near the time. you will need to have a look at eurospec thread and have a word with Nick mann to see if there is space.

    Nice looking car by the way, wheels look like rota style, not my choice of colour on a silver car, but am sure you have your preferances and will put your own stamp on the car soon enough. It wlll be interesting to see what you come up with.

    Welcome back to vr4 ownership, you never leave them for long.

    I agree, welcome back. There might be better cars out there but for the money there is very little else with the same combination of space, pace and fun.

    Nice motor!


    Yes, putting cars on the same dyno on the same day with the same operator is a genuine comparison between vehicles.
