ek power output to date

Post by boostn62 »

put the pano on the dyno last week :lol:
with a mild tune on pump fuel got a nice easy 330rwhp 8)
then wacked in some methanol and a new chip and had it tuned :lol: :shock: 8)
all i can say that methanol is wild stuff hehe
got to 375rwhp but the copper head gasket moved near the rear water gallery so not bad considering was on 5cyl lol
so since then i had th engine O-ringed and better design gasket put in now all is good ready to go play at the gazza nationals
