bargain, supercharge happyness next then!!

[SoundillusioN]

How old are the receipts? It seems it's been really well serviced which is a good thing.  Nothing there however justifies the claimed HP. Also what's the mileage of the motor?

[mmaattyyg]

robz what money do you think im looking at to supercharge it start to finish ?

[mmaattyyg]

yes your right no proof to suport the power ! its done 140,000 the guy i bought it from told me it had a full engine rebuild ! not saying i belived him but driving it i knew it didnt have 140,000 on the clock with out the engine being rebuilt as it drives perfect,idles right, doesnt hunt,revs right, no flat spots,no smoke ect ect ! anyway forget my claim of 218bhp witch i saw with my own eyes !!!!!! i will get it back on the rollers and take a pic of the screen and the print out,not that it matters anyway as i am going to supercharge it !

Ah but that is proof of an engine rebuild though at least... New timing chain etc is one of the major service items so with this done and the other stuff too it should be pretty solid then.   You keep asking robs for a price on your supercharger work... Did you not check out the link I posted....

PS.. I don't need photographic proof of a printout, just advising you on the facts of your engine from the information you provide.  This printout you already have, is this power at the wheels or the flywheel?

[mmaattyyg]

yea i checked out the links you sent me ! good site couldnt work it out properly ! £4000 is what i made of it i need it explained to me in spastic terms ? and was wandering if you guys know off the top of your heads what price i will need to pay all in ? again i am a bit thick so not sure if the 218bhp was at the fly wheel or the wheels

That's correct, 2.5k for the stage 1 250bhp kit not fitted but comes with instructions.  You would have to get a quote for fitting it appears.  Then stage 2 and 3 kits are upgrades from stage 1 to achieve the 305bhp output.

You would need to speak to them about going straight to stage 3 and they would probably want to give the engine a once over to ensure it can take it, (not saying it couldn't).  4k does sound about right though no matter where you take it.  It's not going to be cheap.
