View Full Version : Increased Bhp
After my dissapointment at the Star Performance rolling road session, Im now please to annouce that my cordy is sitting at
170 BHP.
Havent driven the car yet as its still at the SEAT dealer who was paying to get it chipped after the farce they created.
Have to wait til Sat, will probally be up at the crack of dawn to get there for opening at 9am.
Scotty as matter of intrest whats your cordy sitting at ?
Pitty I cant checkout my new bhp increase on the track at crail,
ach well.
Ovv
mines sitting at about an inch from the ground outside my house :p - Sorry!
I've given up getting it RR'd at the mo - after the sould destroying 158bhp at the last one, Its definitely more than that and I'm happy with it (for the mo!) so I won't be paying to get it checked for a very long time.
Hope you're happy with the results chris! :D
/me calls Martyn. Oi Mart. You have some serious catching up to do.
The time will come....:devil:
Scotty, I was gutted to when mine came out at 156 at the rolling road, bonus for however wants to buy the car.
Ovv
Chris, just out of interest. What chip / remap was it?
Dunno, I will ck tomorrow when I pick up the car, 170 is pretty good though.
The only other engine mods I got is a Pipercross Ind kit with Samco hose, and a Powerflow back box exhaust.

anyone done much in the way of better brakes in the cordy crew?? just wondering as i had frilled and groovd doscs and they never made much of an improvement and the warped so imback to standard vented discs.
btw lee, leave marty, those new alloys are good gor 50 bhp!! its true, tell 'em marty!! looks well too ( just needs a max power,redline and fast car sticker to make the 200bhp bracket!!)
look who's woken up from his guiness induced coma! :D
You must drive blimmen' hard Brendy, my grooved discs worked wonders (pagids) and haven't showed any signs of wear yet.
Although I thought I cocked up after chucking a bucket of water over the car when cleaning it and the discs where very hot - steam poured out everywhere!! seem to work still though:rolleyes:

170bhp is wicked, brendy get your cordy chipped, the take off is unreal, plus it revs easier.

you werckon its noticeable then? would like to see your car up againts mine, petes and scotty's some time to see the difference!!!
res easier, you notice the difference at about 3 1/2 thousand rpm, you dont need to thrash the tits of it.
In 5th the feels unreal, u push the pedal to the floor and the pickup is improved. It really does make a difference.
When I collected it on Sat morning, the 1st thing i did was take it out on the dualler.
I would recommend it for sure.

nice!!! i know a couple of fellas in crx's and vts's that i just cant shake off at anything under the ton, after that it becomes a bit easier, but i dont like to speed anymore, a little more lower speed pull would be great!! heheh
btw, i forgot pete had traded his in!!, wonder if the new owner, if it has one yet knows about us!!!
Should be getting my Cordy chipped this summer. Now the zorst is on (had an annoying rattle to fix on the mid-section against a heat shield, sorted now) and the K&N is in (not f***ing around with a shed load of money to get 2 brake), it's getting desperate for a chip. It hesitates off tick over and has flat spots everywhere. Hopefully get that all sorted out with some more horses as well.
I only live up the road from Crowland so I'll be taking the beast to Jabbasport. From what I've read the guys there are sorted. I'm getting a hard on just pre-empting the power!
The those of you that know a thing or two about bikes, I'm part-Xing the Triumph TT600 (complete with loud can) for a Suzuki TL1000S (no loud cans :( ) on Friday, so I'll be busy scrubbing tyres in and getting used to a shed load of horses to just one wheel. I can't f'in wait!
BTW the zorst is a Longlife jobby, http://www.exhaust.uk.com , cost £269 squid, which is over a tenner cheaper than a mild steel original. Er, I'll think I'll have the stainless mate! 2" tubing with a 3" rolled out tail-end. I'll take some detailed shots with the digi camera and put them up on mi web-site.
Have muchous funness from Naughtious Maximus!
