Not the result I was looking for, but kind of expected from a leaking exhaust (not a large leak, but substantial) and higher inlet temps.
3hp down on the last time there, even though I had since ported the throttle body, hence my expectation of 165hp - 170hp.

Will be fixing the exhaust properly rather than just covering it in paste, and I'll be purchasing another airbox to start remodelling a new "interior" design.

Fuelling is good though (confirmed by Ess_three, cheers mate :afro:), Jim at JKM said it's running perfectly too so there was no need to worry about being 3hp down.

I'll be organizing a RR for February time so if you want to test your car at the heartbreaker dyno then let me know  :evil:

I'm hoping for cold weather, let those engines perform!

Be interesting to see what results your car gives at say R-tech's RR in summer.
(altitude and warmth)

Probably a few horsepower less. 3hp down from last rolling road even though throttle body was ported since, I reckon about 6hp are missing from mine, maybe more. I know the cause though, so will be sorting it out when I'm back from Brazil.
