Completely agree with this, as if you plan for 400/400 and it comes up short you might get disappointed and not enjoy it as much.

I had a stage 1 done on mine, and was told it should be around 380bhp, and I enjoyed it for 2 years, after that it went on the rollers and was actually 358bhp, but it was still a laugh.

i had 380 in mine and it felt great, i wouldnt chase figures to much if your cars only a 260 and your jumping to even say 360 it will feel great.

Thanks guys....will be happy with 380bhp. No chasing figures.....want to keep it safe....and enjoy it.

Yeah very true. Mine is 490, obviously was disappointed it wasn't 500, but would I notice a difference between the 2?? Doubt it!

I would expect dyno figures of around 370 ftlb /380bhp plus on that setup if everything is 100 %

Mine makes less than it " should " given the mods done. I couldn't care less, it's reliable and quick and feels it. Everyone who's passengered in it or driven it always says how quick it seems. If you have 380, it won't feel any different to 400 on the road.
