"HI. The car has had a stainless with sports cat,piper cross viper induction kit samco silicone hosses,chiped,re-maped ECU. K-TEC Estamate around 210BHP. Rgards."
Isnt chipping just changing the standard ECU to a different set up, where as mapping is individually mapped for your car to get the best performance output????
The modifications done to your car will no way give it 210bhp, it would barely push passed 195bhp.
You should get it on a rolling road & diag machine to see what it actually is producing. Thats why no one will buy your car, they simple dont trust it and its been done by KTEC...which are really poop.

EBAY BLOKE -
Many thanks for your opinion.
I will get on to K-TEC straight away to inform them that they are giving out false information.

anybody got mark fish number?iv lost it and he was talking of developing a supercharger kit for 172/182s! that would give you well over 210bhp! even atws! lol
Ktec's mentioned gains on their website seem a little OTT to be honest. They estimate their sports cat gives something like 8bhp increase (more than they estimate their de-cat BTW). Maybe he has gone off the website, I.E Stealth +8, Sports Cat +8, Vipers claims of 8 bhp. Then he will think he is getting an extra 5 from a chip and bingo 182+34 = 211 bhp car!
Sometimes people do believe what they read He probably didnt realise the viper lost him 2bhp, and his car was probably running under 175bhp as standard.
