Turns out it's not a magnuson or harrop charger I have, it's a pwr m112. Smaller than the 122 I thought it was.
Quick research shows that the target of 580-600whp is going to be extremely difficult to achieve if not impossible.
A realistic figure to expect from my set up is 450-480whp.
Which at first was a little upsetting, but I remember it's whp not bhp, add onto that the torque of which I know I can get a fairly flat 550ftlb min.
Time will tell and you'll all see pictures of the dyno read out on Tuesday.

love how your still properly cracking on Carl

Shame about the charger, Would the bigger one bolt up if wanted or completely different mountings?

Still nothing to be sniffed at and that torque is monstrous,

I need to try your wheels

My white ones? You're welcome to try them on if we cross paths, they're nothing special, I'll be looking at getting some new wheels at some point in autumn.

I'll be happy with whatever it chucks out, got some serious long term plans which include the sale of the charger and make way for a snail
But that's a far in future thing.

Thanks man it's easier to do so now that I've got a second car to run around in, means I can do the bigger jobs I've been wanting to do and take my time with it.
Got a 2.5 V6 Mitsubishi Galant sport atm

Over fender update:
Recently spoke to the company who will be sorting my arches and they can fit me in during june and it will coincide with Jack Smith fitting me a new soft top!
This means I dont have to travel to the same area and back twice!
The kit has been kept secret for a while but I can now reveal it is the Rocket Bunny phase 2 kit!
Here are a few pictures of the V2 kit fitted to a Nissan S15.











The style of the kit isnt for everyone, I can appreciate that there will be people who think it's ghastly.
Personally I think it looks great on evry car I've seen it on, but I'm unsure of how it'll look on the S2 so it is quite a gamble!

Ready for Sleath's tomorrow!
Had a stressful couple of days trying to get it ready, but it's done!
Will hopefully be able to take a video of the car on the dyno and put it up for you guys.

Just catching up on this tread - great work you have done.

I used Sleathy's dyno to map my polo - nice guy and has forgotten more than I know about engines and I'm a engine development engineer!
