Torque is immense


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.



good result torque and bhp differ a little depend on what gear they run it in dont they?


Might be why the torque and bhp are different to what you was expecting. Will be interesting to see what totd gets you


Ace result either way


Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Although, don't forget that RR torque figures are a load of shite and should be taken with a pinch of salt.


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Agreed Iaz they throw up fault codes. Thing the way to get around it is Space the lamda out. More chance of being fucked over for not having a cat if stopped tho.
