mine puts out 236bhp and kohnmikes cupra puts out 237bhp both with revo stage two running on 99 octane fuel so with race fuel or very high octane 240 should pe possible!
the turbo can cope with 250bhp max

How oftern do you go to work and back on race fuel??

I have had the turbos neck rang on my Car and i would love for it to see 250 bhp but cant see it, mine put out about 235bhp approx but not had it RR but it's not all about how much BHP you have its how the car uses it :)

I to run V power, so what bhp do you claim to run daily ?

and I know for a fact that you dont get 40 miles to the gallon as you stated in one of your other post .

I have never seen 40 mpg on the motorway even when it was bogo, never mind after modding you must drive like me gran to pull that off, not sure your telling the truth on that one mate.

i find 65 on the motorway will get me 40mpg easily must be the way they are mapped then also im very light on the throttle when accelerating on motorways!
think we should let the thread get back on track now though!

my fr 20vt is bogo and with the cruise on at 65 I get low 40's and at 70 I get high 30's

and its only got 7k on the clock too


is my computer optimistic ?

Mines a cupra, ecu mapping diffrent to fr as there is more BHP, but that looks about right but dont quote me. But gaz has his remapped and has some modes on thats why i the 40mpg I think is high as when my Cupra was bogo in could only just get ~40mpg
