I know it's one of the stupid question new people make but.... My R. Ran 336 bhp @ 1.4bar last time it was on the RR.
.
Now since then I've done a few mods but do you think they will make any real. Difference. On the RR .
. .
I've replaced the hks filter for an apexi filter.
I've changed my3 inch turbo to cat then cat back mongoose to a full 3 inch system.
The air filter is now in a custom air box.
And all my intercooler pipes are lagged...

Must admit when I fitted the airbox that made it feel smoother..
Do you think they will make much difference combined or maybe just help smooth it out.


Any comments appreciated even if they are shit. Ones

Did you originally have the standard elbow on before you went to the 3" system? If so i reckon the elbow will give you 10hp? Not sure about the other mods...

It will proberbly have lost some hp with the mods because you've altered the setup.
But it will prob gain more hp when it's mapped again.

all should of helped maybe the exhaust system will make the most difference even if it is just the turbo getting rid of gasses better so more power better spool don't expect massive bhp increase. some mappers keep a bit back if they think your going to use them again so you feel like your getting your moneys worth

tbh bob I don't think itll make an iota of difference on the rollers at same boost level.....but it should make the car more drivable with better response and lets face it that's what its all about.

people read too much into bhp figures and they mean nothing, in the real world its all about throttle response and torque.
ive seen 300bhp cars whoop 500 odd bhp cars just simply because they are setup better for early to mid range response
its all about 30-120mph there the figures that really count
so ask ed to forget what power she makes but concentrate his efforts on getting as smoother map as possible with as rapid response as he can get even if it means being sacrificial to max bhp Wink

Was just curious really.. Would rather it drove well than have more power than before
