yours is supercharger you will probably hold him.

when i charged my DC2 (second time today ive mentioned this on the forum)
I was out on the dual carrage way and i beat a scoob (modded to buggery) was a jap WRX with mental power a claimed 320-40 bhp.

And i held him to 150mph. Now he kicked my ass on the quarter mile 1 second difference but on a dual carrageway he was mine.

but a charged type-R with manifold de-cat full system, cam upgrade, new ECU, basically 5.5k into that engine so prob 230bhp-240bhp (max) the car was crap though after the charger and the mods. i never split the bits of i just traded it all in to audi i was so pissed of with it.

No - SC is off at the moment - with it on he would be destroyed. The S/C will see 100 in a shade of 10 seconds (350 bhp)

I took him out in it as standard and that was when he made the comment.

PS - 320 aint mental power on a scoob. My STi V5 had that with a few minor tweaks! Most are 300 plus. Many are in the high 300's now.

exaggeration with words has always been a trate of mine it makes stories more interesting. Mental power in comparison to my DC2 at the time.

350bhp in an s2000 ****ing hell that will be something else. i wouldn't want mine with that sort of power (i had been thinging a charger or turbo but only thought you would be light side of 300 horses) i would be terrified it spins and every foot plant.

on the DC-2 it wheel span all the way through to 3rd in the dry it was only good on a rolling start.

Still it sounded unbelievable and shot amazing blue flames when i hit the limiter

I think its a bit much too! The Vortech is a serious bit of kit!

If you want less power at around 300, and a cheaper option, the Comptech without aftercooler is very good, and very easy to fit.
