The HP Induction I have on mine is not avaliable yet as it is a development kit. Loud! Put it this way, I floored it in second yesterday and people a good 150 yards away turned around to see what was coming!

Right thing is this - I got 131bhp @ the wheels from my last RR before all the work was done. The car feels slightly better to me but in a race with Mark the other night there was practically nothing in it to 100 when I seem to leave him standing. He got a slightly better start off of a...

Who was that comment aimed at Tom?

My 172 sounds like a bloody TVR past 2500rpm with the Hill Power Induction on, although Im not sure there has been any performance increase. Will find out tomorrow as Im having it Rolling Roaded in Northampton.

Sorry dont know

Rolling Road is this Sat morning so we shall see what difference it has made! I know what you mean about it being wet. Nick said your going back in to have the under body scoop put on and the fog light put back in? I have gone for Tarox G88 discs up front and Tarox fast road pads front and...

Seems good mate....feels more positive from lower down the rev range and midrange torque seems to be up. Top end it is the same, but the noise from the induction is awesome! Can get enough of driving round in 2nd and flooring it at about 3k! Still bedding the brakes in though so cant drive it...

I agree with Jamie about the Falken FK-451s as I have them on mine. Great tyre and better than these I have had before: Goodyear Eagle F1s Continental Sport Contacts Yoko A539s Pirelli P6000s I will be changing them in the next month or so to the same again as the 2 track days and 9000...

Because I dont want a Cup, a V6 maybe though. I am quite happy with my 172 with all the added toys!

Mat is correct in what he says about the VVT coming on at 1500rpm. The kick you get at around 5000rpm is the cams coming on which gives the car an added boost.

A long time I hope! Scoobies seem to start loosing it at around 80k, or atleast thats what two people I know said as they both had about 90k on the clock.
