Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral My Mates Modified Esprit in Redline Xmas

The sad thing is that he hasn't done a great deal to the engine. Standard is 240BHP, a chip would take it upto 280-290BHP depending which one. He's just opted for NOS which IMO is not a good move without doing anything else. He hasn't even got a dump valve or turbo timer. Chargecooler which is a water cooled version of an intercooler is standard. No K&N or induction kit. No engine work as far as I know.
He has got a huge 4 pipe through exhaust without any back box though which is giving hime about another 10-15 brake. Add this to the NOS takes hime upto 340-350BHP. I keep telling him to install a progressive controller on his NOS to save his engine and gearbox but he doesn't listen. He's already blown a brand new turbo.

Hi, :go:

Hi sally, the modded car isn't from the Wirral. He lives in Derby way. He's on the Midlands cruise site a lot.
