[D1CKY]

Outta curiousity,
What Bhp do you guys think a 172 with decatted stainless exhaust system and a k & n panel filter with grille air feed and no aoustic valve push out ?
:S

iirc , they are the fastest car ever made..

 

[Timmay]

^ not true thats the ph1 lol

 

[FlameR]

it will be about 250bhp mate.

 

[TeZ]

Well PH2 seats down clear side repeaters and lowerd 40mm, i would guess at 200hp at the wheel.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Negligible gains 1-3bhp at best most likely.

Lucky if that gets you to 172bhp.

Is taking the acoustic valve out a worthwhile mod?

 

[TeZ]

Ppl say so,

if you get all that done then have a remap to suit maybe better performance.

Sorry to say this D1CKY but its a real silly question to ask!
Ive been to a fair few rolling roads and some standard 172s have not even made 155/160! It depends on the car,how the engine runs.
At most id expect possible 6bhp if ur very lucky but its all guest work.

I dont know what it even does but i heard on here its good to remove it so i did

I just gained 23 BHP by losing 2 stone from my beer belly!!

Seriously though do you reckon a circumcision would reduce weight and hence increase power?

Heard good things about the decat, doesn't necessarily improve BHP much but shifts peak power and torque down the range so effectively you reach peak power quicker.

Mine made 300 bhp on my tread mill

Only 300bhp

It was on the hill climb mode, woulda been nearer 650 normally
