Howdo, I need to tell insurance company the hp for our car as standard 998cc (easy) but also the current 1275cc and stage 1 kit. But aside from getting it shoved on rolling road I'm unsure of how little power it's likely to be putting out.

Thanks!

What's the engine from? 1275 motors ranged in BHP from 55ish to 66+, according to the books. Then it depends on the stage 1 kit . I would expect the insurer would want the standard engine BHP, then the stage 1 kit would be classed as a separate modification and corrected as such. Best to confirm with them though, it's better to be over cautious than not insured due to an assumption.
