no thats the charge pipe matey.....

the tip is the black hose which connects to your air box/filter....this then connects to the turbo and also accommodates the dv and check valve.

177bhp?

you got problems dude
check ALL your hoses, look for holes, cracks, make sure nothing is loose
you got any lights up on the dash at the mo??

with revo, cda etc.. i would expect to be in the 190's minimum

definately!!! get it changed matey.....

do you know what settings your running with the revo?? once youve got your fmic on you may want to play around with them to get more power.

rr debatable, plus without fmic...who knows seen a few very healthy ones produce similar figures on stock cooling

i see what your saying, but good cooling or not, IMO it should be making more power than that, whatever the RR, the map alone should take it further than 177 surely?

ohyeah deffo but theres so much depth to go into as to why it 'might' not produce the estimated figures that its purely not worth the effort. come on smithy, your like me, dont give a toss what the dyno says.

at 177bhp i wouldn't be too worried about exploring any potential problems, could purely be down to the rollers, their cooling methods or the cars cooling system.

my car made 162bhp or so after revo, but straight after the session it outpaced a car that achieved more on the day

with the addition of a downpipe and fmic and a different set of rollers i got a 47bhp gain....
