IT''S BACK!

PS Dan was awesome in his, ahem, new trainers poncing about outside with his fingers in his ears and saying la la to himself so he couldn't hear his car screaming in the booth!! Wot a wuz.

I'd like to say that was a lie - but sadly it's not! It's Mark's fault, I tried to distract myself by giving him a call and he hung up on me just as Gerald hit about 6.5K!

So what were the numbers then gentlemen?

We need to know.

Neil the answer to your question Dan had a number 2 whilst his was on the dyno and he panicked at losing a valve, Nigel had a number one whilst watching Dans antics.....

Well mine was 157 bhp. I'm well chuffed with that (standard Zetec). I hoped for 150, but for whatever reason (age, mis-use!) I thought I'd be down on that - so very pleased. Bigger chokes and shorter trunpets would give me a few BHP more - but I'm going to wait until winter and do the cams and a port and polish and see if I can get nearer to Nigel.

I'll let Nigel tell you what his made - not bad!

True, I also did a little wee and a little bit of sick - plus I chewed a packet of nicotine gum!

well according to Messrs Dunnell Engines, I have an 'Option 1' package which has me down for somewhere between 162-168bph (2.0 Zetec). I have a car mag with my car featured that says it was good, at the time of writing, for around 170bph. So I was mightily pleased when the first run showed 175.5 @ 6126rpm (corrected).
After Gerald had his play with it, he tweaked that up some more and got me to 180.6 @ 6045prm. Peak torque 168.7lb ft @ 4920rpm.
Max road speed 121.3 which would have been fun if it had jumped the rolling road and chocks!! Max engine speed (reflected partly in dan's you tube clip) was 6997rpm - 3rpm less than the setting for the shift light!!
I will sleep well tonight
