Well finally got my harroped s/c car back. :groupjump: what I can say is it was GREAT to drive, thankfully not raining until I almost got home, got to learn how to drive it again. final figures for me were 366hp and just under 300 lb/ ft torque on a 2.9" pulley had a couple of problems with the earth or lack of interfering with the runs at one stage, so in fact wasn't the coil pack if I had put the 2.8" on I would have got 377bhp (same as the other harroped car) and 2.7" about 385bhp had though good constant power without heat problems, also for info they did a number of runs within a small time frame it did have a bit of heat soak as it lost about 10bhp over about 12mins think that spacer did help a bit there.

if I had put the 2.8" on I would have got 377bhp (same as the other harroped car) and 2.7" about 385bhp had though good constant power without heat problems, also for info they did a number of runs within a small time frame it did have a bit of heat soak as it lost about 10bhp over about 12mins think that spacer did help a bit there.


Stop it Nick, I'm not listening








BTW well done at long last!

a harrop basically and a remap

will be interesting to drill and tap a temp sensor after the laminovas to log iat's

other than that though awesome result!


yea it would have been Jon did mention about putting a sensor in during the mapping but they never did.

Thanks guys yea just want to drive it.

Think I will run it as it is till next year then do as Joe said with regards to the temp sensor and put the 2.7 pulley one.
