    Reason I ask is because I've done quite abit to the engine but seeing the 300bhp rr printout, well it's kinda put me off doing anymore to mine, is there any way of making more torque?

    Say 250-260??
    Or is it impossible because of it being a 1.4?

    Thanx for the info so far

    Nitrous.

    Mine made 260ibft at about 4000rpm using a 50shot and an MD103 turbo and a which is small by todays standards.

    You wont get much over 200ibft then without an increase in displacment.

    So you can have decent useable torque with a useable power pound, or you can have loads of power at the top end and not much torque by comparison which is good for drag racing, but thats about it.

    But what do I know... FA remember!

    It certainly doesnt have more potential than nitrous in the slightest.

    You can use any size of nitrous shot you like, you could use 10 or 20 shot just to get the turbo going round.



    Another alternative that will give you more torque and certainly loads of useable torque is anti lag.

    You need a special type of turbo tho don't you to run anti lag?

    How much does it cost to fill up on nitros?? And where is the fill stations?
