yes you no doubt achieved this figure but did you test a larger pipe ? might have made 525Bhp then?
We sure did. 63-70mm ID yielded about 1 lb/ft through the entire powerband. 70-75mm yielded nothing. No point in all that extra noise for basically minimal returns. It's amazing what a properly engineered exhaust system can do.
