i think the main problem is if your car starts to run lean after the mod.
mine spat out 187 bhp on the rollers and is totally standard. now assumming that this is correct on my car and i have the inlet mod done i could end up with as much as 199 bhp for a few hundred quid (based on bens extensive inlet mod). I thought feckin great !
However if the car runs lean after the mod (which you dont know until its done) you would have to shell out best part of 700 notes for smt6 or risk detonation. I thought not so great !
i think the best bet is to have the inlet + smt6 done at the same time so you know your engine is safe.
dont use the "mathmatical" method to add power gains to your car
remember Rolling roads are unfortunatley not always accurate in terms of fly wheel power figures
They should only be used IMO for before and after comparisons, and to check fueling
.
