"My own car feels of an equivalent 250-260hp car and I don't think it has been ruined somewhere."
and more recently you bumped up to 270hp "feel", just can t find the post or lazy to find it, but i m sure a lot of people remember you saying that :ç ))) |
I am moving this discussion here ...
Where in my words can you find the 280bhp number? I said about 250bhp if someone measures a base '13 car to be around 190bhp and 260 if someone goes with the official catalog number. And these numbers are not actual, but more about a feel after working A LOT on specific NA power mods and weight reduction. All the details can be found in this page like how the new exhaust manifold gives a power bump after the 5.5k rpm range or how good the Cosworth tune works in comparison with the stock tune. On weight reduction I was just lucky because my car was already lighter (-35kg) from the factory and I didn't have to make a lot of modifications to reach my weight target. I bought the bare bones trim level which was available in certain countries in Europe up to year 2015. If you check the first page you can see that the boot interior was already stripped from the factory. So, the 270 or 280 numbers are your own words and interpretation. At least if it was not well understood in the past, then I believe that it is clear now.
