when i had the engine rebuild (main performance enhancements were Engine Balance and compression raised to 9.6:1 *piston change*)

she pulled 117rwkw... thats with completely stock exhaust, cam etc

now its got extractors, hi-flow exhaust, bout to get fitted with an EL BBM and thermofans, and a RPD cam... im hoping for high figures ;)

put a ef el box in it. a mild cam, extractors and a zorst.

should all be legal and will pull good.

btw, rules of the road say that all tyres on the car must be of same diamenional style. eg, 215/15 and 225/16 makes the car unroad worthy

Are you saying that my tyres may be illegal? I can assure you they are perfectly legal because they have been seen by the cops with the previous owner. I think that the front and rear tyres can't deviate from more than 100mm..... I think.

Oh well. Why are we talking about tyres now? BACK TO TPOIC lol. Anyway my EB Fairmont owners manual says it has 145kw. Is that at the flywheel or the rear wheels?
