What you sitting at banana wise? 95?
Not sure havn't had it on a dyno yet. I havn't finishing modifying it yet, so will have to see once I've finished.
At the moment im estimating around 90, once finished Im hoping for around 95.

It doesn't half rev quicker than the old 1275 like. Sounds nicer too

Still trying to get the speedo right now. Although it's still faaaaaaaar too slow. Turbo is on it's way. Im thinking xmas holidays will see me some boost.
Yeah it does rev quicker than the 1275, it's got a londer final drive aswell which is nice. In that run I tried too get too 60 in second, but it was just coming out of the power at around 7k rpm, so had too change. I've had it down too around 8.3, that was almost perfect conditions though.
