Had a look through my receipts that the previous owner gave me with the car, came along a rolling road test sheet.........its quoted to be 132bhp @5600rpm, obvisously i've had the car a while and it was rolling roaded a while back, could be more or less now.

Is that an ok figure for a standard XE, has decat pipe, powerflow centre section and jap back box, k&n filter as well.....

I thought it would work out about right around 150bhp at the flywheel? The XE's are around the 150mark which is at the flywheel? Loose around 30% through heat, friction, all sorts etc

If you take that as a wheel put figure then it's good. but it's better to have it RR'd yourself and fine out.
