uk-rich Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 i'd say the boost would need to be upped, so yes but could be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Dynos are wildly different. It's what's at the wheels that counts, even then they vary lots. Decat and BPU can certainly see significant gains 380 bhp - again, from vehicle to vehicle. Would need a fuel cut defencer fitted for this of course. The boost is raised on a Jspec by simply decatting, in fact it can be raised to much requiring a restrictor ring before the turbos die horribly.

gaz1 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 if its a j spec it would not need a boost controller, it would have a restrictor ring so it prob is fully decatted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 yes as pete says, if it's a de-catted jspec and has a fcd of some sort then quite possibly (but ought to have plugs and fuel pump to match). if it's a uk spec, unlikely since the boost will still be at stock or thereabouts and will need a boost controller to raise it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 It could be 400 bhp without a boost controller, a full decat can give you 1.2 bar which is the max boost pressure most of us go for on stock turbo's. It's dependant on other mods aswell including intercooler and fuelling. You don't necessarily need a boost contoller with a full decat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I'm dying to try mine at Thors dyno at JAE this year to see what it's putting out. I'll wet myself if it's 400bhp. Probably not in the sun (if WILL be sunny) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 You could use a bleed valve to increase boost (not recommended) which would also mean it wouldnt need a BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Flat4_ire Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 What did he do to the ECU? bit suspicious of this one to be honest, post up all the mods etc ok? because until we see them we cant say if its anywhere near 400bhp, thats just a nice round figure guys seem to give these cars, heres a good one for you ok? the guy who bought my rz-s tt 6speed last thursday was actually telling ME that the car was around 400bhp, that it was delimited when it came into england! lmao, i wouldnt mind but both the cats are still in and all of that, i felt like slapping him, after i got my money of course i dont believe any bragging rights/figures until i see rolling road paperwork!!

Yep - and even RR figures mean diddly squat due to there being such a huge difference in the figures given by different types of RR. IMHO, RR's should be used for tuneing and mapping only and not be used to massage someones ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO, RR's should be used for tuneing and mapping only and not be used to massage someones ego. yeah i know, to be honest anyway at this stage its all about how the car pulls and feels! id know straight away by driving it if it had anywhere near 400bhp, and if it has proper stuff on it ur goin good, no point just having good bhp figures with feckall driveability etc ya know? remember, cleanliness will sell a car, not bhp braggin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I think it means the 'turbo' spins at 40k rpm (which is slow for a turbo isn't it?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason m Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 A friend of mine used to import these a few years back, they actually worked well on na cars as the impeller on the filter sucks air in a vortex and improves air flow into the engine at lower revs, think it just helped drivability a little. They did stop selling them though... now I come to think about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
