Wheeler Dealers Tonight - Spoilers inside

[pauly]

ORIGINAL: Big Dave UK I can see this one running + running....[][][][][8|][8|][8|]

What with all that smoke ? [].

 

[Flick]

I wonder what the new owner would make of the programme and how is the car now?

 

[stjohnsmythe]

I thought it was a bit of a waste spending money remapping the car. Surely the Turbo has plenty enough power for the track as standard (especially as it made healthy figures on the dyno).

 

[poprock]

Hopefully I’ll get a copy of this up online for everyone who missed it (including me!). Probably over the weekend.

No such thing as enough power It's not just about the headline figure though. Generally speaking a good chipset will reduce turbo lag, smooth out the power delivery and actually make the car easier and more economical to drive [8D]

 

[swright]

Wasn't it interesting though that the car made 236bhp on the dyno even before they had it chipped?!?!

 

[random hero]

I missed the start of the show and wondered this,was the car a 220 that had been tuned or a 250 that had lost a few horses ??

 

[wolfie308]

I believe it's a 220 on a rather optomistic Dyno [8|]

...and with a heavy smoking habit![8|]
