Took it up to Thorney to check everything is ok with it since installing Bluefin Stage 2 weeks ago

269bhp 340lb/ft

BHP is a tad low, but wasn't very cold today but the torque figure

Going on the rollers again on the 28th, will be good to see if the results are consistant.

I know, but I had a few issues with it going into limp mode. Had the explaination as to why and it's running perfect.

Wasn't warm enough before I put my foot down. I warm the car up, obviously not enough.

Well it's not really low.

People get between 270bhp 285bhp but if you have a higher bhp figure your torque is usually lower.

I'm happy with it, pulls like a freight train.

Interesting result Ollie, be interesting to see what TOTD rollers say!

How many runs did they do?

Also when a car is not at operating temperature usually in modern cars it puts a rev limit on it. Mine only revs to 6k when cold but then when warm 7500. Or only 7k when running 95 ron.

Going into limp mode is really bizzare....do other on VXROL have the same issues when cold?

Yeah as standard the VXR has this, but I think the map must remove it so the simplest thing to do is to make it go into limp mode.

A few others have had the issue also.
