I really have no idea how you can compere the 98-03 legacy twin turbo model with the 03-on single twin scroll td03/04 model?? As they a 2 totally totally different cars. And not something you can compere..

276BHP odd as standard, add NF, E5, fuel pump, Full decat, induction with a cold air feed, increased boost and 310BHP is surely possible... I was not directly comparing the cars simply that the mods i have, have seen that increase in power

Although your very limited knowledge as above clearly shows this. Stevos put this power out on a boost spike from a boost control solinoid playing up as rollers read the peak figure. This is from memory and Stevo be best to comment so relaying these figures as your facts are ridiculous to say the least.

I didnt realise stevo's car was playing up that day but his figures had and have no effect whatsoever on my figures... I used it as an example

And comments regards disagreeing question? Yes put yours to the test to substansate a 330bhp claim?? A claim by yourself? PLease?
[/quote]
Between 320-330BHP and its
Bob Rawles claim,
not mine... I simply asked him what he felt the car was putting out and that was
his responce... I didnt claim it, he did... I would have been happy with 310 or so to be quite honest... If anyone ever asks me what it is putting out, I tell them that
Bob Rawle reckons there or there abouts... Speaking from the couple of people that have driven it, it was a big shock to them as they were very suprised by the power and torque from it... Now, these comments are from people that are qualified mechanics who, unlike yourself, actually have a mechanical background, have served their time, have their qualifications and are more than qualified to comment. I will be putting it to the test on the rollers once the car is finished, unfortunately the clutch wore itself out and was slipping less than a week after the map so have been unable to get a dyno run completed in its current form...

A person viewing boost, fueling, detentation can only give their rough idea on area standings. I would think personally your in or around the 305bhp mark.
[/quote]
So a person viewing boost, fueling and detonation with a wealth of experience mapping cars cant give an accurate measurement of the power from a car but yet you can somehow miraculously claim a figure of 305BHP without driving the car or knowing what has been done to it??? Thats some going

And the condition of Johns car nor internals comes into play. Adding to you not really knowing what your talking about. You said should see 320bhp.. Now you say you were maybe a bit generous saying it may reach over 300bhp.. Now in my eyes that a huge difference? So which is it
[/quote]
Of course the state of engine internals comes into play, it would be silly to think otherwise... I would have thought that you should know that wear and tear on an engine has quite a big impact on the figures it puts out. Carbon deposits and build up over time for one and wear and tear on moving metal parts all causes an engine to decrease in performance. Thats why you see these additives for sale in halfords, etc that claim to restore engine performance. Now obviously they cant restore worn metal but carbon deposits and the likes of injector build up can be decreased over time with consistent use of these additives thus
restoring some lost performance... On turbo cars, crud build up in the pipes and solenoids can have a massive effect on a cars performance... I may have been hyped up on caffeine when i was saying 320 which is why i withdrew the claim and said i was too generous with the figures but 300-310 is an achievable figure with those mods

You have been about here dishing out stuff last few months and alot directed at sti tuning when in all reality you don't really have any idea what your on about besides personal research on your own car and model..
[/quote]
Nothing i have ever said about Sti Tuning or you has been untrue or unjustified and as it happens, all the bad dealings that people have had with you and told me about, I have never mentioned once on the site... I've called you out over a few things where you have claimed to be an "Ireland's Official Distributor" of the likes of NF Booster when you're not... And i took exception to your comments in a certain thread regarding a blown engine on a dyno because i felt that you were trying to direct the blame at a fellow trader on this site when it was unwarranted and unsubstantiated so pot, kettle, black sound familiar???
[quote author=davelegacy link=topic=14436.msg181446#msg181446 date=1240787638]
I would in general say i've kept pretty quiet with yourself and co. in last couple months but with a family and 1 1/2 year old little baby girl at home to provide for i think damaging unsubstainsiated mouthing comments from you need to be addressed... This is indeed a lot more serious then any other normal worthless debate.
[/quote]
We all have families to feed Dave, you think you are entited to do and say as you please just because you have a 1 and half year old? Please point me to where I've been so unfair towards you and your company as if i have ever said anything unwarranted or damaging then i would apologise straight away. But the simple fact is that i have never been critical where it wasnt warranted and you're attempts to discredit me and my opinions with these accusations are unwarranted...
