Xflow - 345hp @ 6100 333ftlb @ 4700
FG - 355hp @ 6050 342ftlb @ 4500
same dyno, same fuel brand, same manifold, same exhaust, same tuner, 3 years apart!!
So thats a stock FG DOHC head port, chamber, valve angles etc which is different to BA DOHC also we love vct saw one simple change at 5000 to the exhaust cam and gained 20hp!!! the cams have 60 degrees of movement and we are using all of that through the rev range.
Should be back out racing in the next few weeks if all goes well.

Well the strip out of the old beacon has begun tell you what it didn't want to come out as the car was pretty fucking bent
We had to take the gearbox and the bell off cause the car was squashed around them but all seams to be ok. Tomorrow the teardown of the new one starts with any luck should be running by tomorrow night
