Lovely car by the way mate. You might want to start thinking about reinforcing the bottom end if your planning on going that high. What are your plans? Id invest in a 1.3 rallye box, youll be pushing late 13s then.

Also get the exhaust manifold wrapped up, the TB's will more than likely be sucking in warm air as it is.

I would suggest it is 170bhp, its faster than warp speed.

Nah, fair enough, just didnt seem to think those mods would.

I dont really know how saxo's react to such mods.

a 14.42 1/4 mile against a high wind, would suggest it's near 170 bhp

When Astra VXR's are struggling to get better than 14.9, a saxo getting a 14.42 is v.impressive.

My new coil pack has arrived, lets see if it makes any difference on mine

The car isn't struggling, the driver is.

Weird? - when I was already a couple of car lengths on you, I was accelerating through 3rd and the astra was not gaining as I neared the line... you'd of thought the astra's high peak bhp would of been gaining by that point.

You should of let me drive it.

You sure you don't have a VXR restrictor pedal?

I just like to be able to access all the wiring from inside the car when mapping and setting up, half the time when people have the ecu under the bonnet the pins on the com port rust over and you lose connection half way through setting a map.

Using the wrong fuel on the day as well, 95 RON is crap in the VXR.

vtr170 - Do you mind me asking how much the tb setup with engine management was???

Dave A - Do you need aftermarket engine management to run tb's or is it possible to run them off a remapped std ecu???
