andy 0 Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 Schrick mainfold and or cams are what's needed to get significant gains above the usual exhaust and filter mods. You may come close to 200 bhp though by using a filter with a higher power gain like a BMC cda and then get her mapped. Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 why 200 bhp in particular?a handful of cars from here have actually seen over 200bhp on the rr from an exhaust and induction kit but it's not the norm... as Andy says to get decent power gains doesnt come cheap unfortunately Link to post Share on other sites
fritzenberg 3 Posted February 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 ah,how much would a bigger throttle body give you,along with a re-mapp? Link to post Share on other sites
Andyboy 0 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I fitted a ashley manifold, decat and cat back with a filter and got 200bhp, with a set of cams aswell or an uprated throttle body would take you well over. I just got an uprated throttle body from a guy for £120 (on an exchange basis), fitting it 2moro and my cams on thursday. If you send me an email i'll give you the guys number for the throttle body. I'll let you know 2moro night what sort of difference it makes, and same on thursday with the cams. Link to post Share on other sites
Eat this 2 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 the schrick doesnt give much if any bhp but it does give a genuinly HUUUUGE amount of midrange torque (3k-4k rpm) Link to post Share on other sites
cookiesvw 0 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 i have an air filter and a back box and its 202 bhp Link to post Share on other sites
Andyboy 0 Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Think im about 215bhp (gettin it rolling roaded next wk to see), but like they say it isn't cheap, i've spent bout £1500 so far, b ut its worth it!! Link to post Share on other sites
andy 0 Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 the schrick doesnt give much if any bhp but it does give a genuinly HUUUUGE amount of midrange torque (3k-4k rpm) True, but your 215 bhp came from somewhere m8! That's quite a hike from standard I'd say. Link to post Share on other sites
