We finished the kit installation yesterday afternoon, slung it in the dyno and…286 BHP and 200lb-ft. There are a few areas where we will improve things. We are aiming for 240lb-ft and may push my own car to 300 BHP.
Customer cars will be 280 BHP and 240lb-ft.
The on road behaviour is just typically Exige, except you can negotiate roundabouts in 4th and accelerate away cleanly at 3000 revs.
At 100 MPH it rushes up to 130 in a flash !!! [private road]
Next week we will clean up the mapping for our roads/fuel etc.

The BHP peaked at 286.6 BHP at 7800 rpm. The torque is reasonably flat rising from 195lb-ft at 4400 rpm up to 200 at 5200 and stays there until 7400 with a slight dip between 5600 and 6600. As we do not yet have the required cable we cannot amend the mapping. I envisage us ending up at 240lb-ft at 4850 revs and holding it relatively flat depending on when we can switch the cam in.
Currently we have lag but this is due in the main to overfuelling at lower revs.
I posted as much fact as I could remember, farther up the thread. Come up to Silverstone, see it, hear it, touch it, drive it although it is still a “work in progress”
Yes, I am well aware of the kit. In my opinion it is the best turbo kit here in the states on the market.
My partners and I have a shop and are looking to be the east coast installers for the Forced Fed kit.
I have done a few Hass turbo installs and was not impressed with the overall system design.
The Forced Fed kit has a far better layout.
Thats exactly what we thought when looked at the various options available. John at Forced Fed is a top fellow and the kit comes complete and is relatively straightforward to install, if you are a competent workshop. We are happy to be sole UK distributor.
