Rolling Road Results

[Captain Slow]

Had the ZS rolling roaded at Torque Of The Devil in Uxbridge today...

189.1bhp peak @ 6700rpm & 187lb/ft of torque @ 3600rpm

On a side note-TOTD have been giving the FFOC good service for a number of years with regards to tuning and general service work so I'm going to ask them for a quote for my impending 6 year service & cambelt (ouch, bend over etc ) and see how they compare.

Not a bad result there!!

I'm pretty pleased with that. I've been researching the difference between the ZS 180 and ZT 190 engines and I'm told it's down to the ZT's less restrictive intake system & exhaust manifolds, not higher lift intake cams as I thought. Does anyone on here know any differently?

A set of Piper cams, followers & vernier pulleys work out at about £1,000 + VAT although it's tempting to just beat the credit card at next year's service...

From what you said, surely more cost effective to look at a good intake system and maybe a less restrictive manifold, both should come in at less than half of the cost!!!

I've always been told the best way to easy power is more in and more out ie suck and blow!!!

The car already has an ITG carbon induction kit fitted

I was looking for exhaust and manifolds for the car-while there are plenty of exhaust cat-back sections around there seem to be no manifolds available...! Anyone know any differently?
