Rolling road result !

As a few on here will know , I have just completed another V6 Mazda conversion in a Fury - and it got on a rolling road for a proper set-up yesterday .
And..............bearing in mind it is a £200 ebay engine - it made 205.9 BHP @ 7000 RPM

I had predicted around the 200 mark - I am well chuffed

Nice result, well done. What was your torque figure out of interest?





Kindest Regards,

Looks like it was designed to be installed in that engine bay.

Carbon looks pretty good as well (and I'm not normally a fan)

What ECU are you using?

Megasquirt - Ms1/extra and edis - it allso has an Lc1 on there , but it wont work , so no chance to check the fueling before it went to the rolling road
But the RR guy did say there wasnt a lot wrong with the mapping , it just needed `fine tuning'

Finding a RR happy to map a Megasquirt sounds like a result in itself

I bought one brand new and it arrived fked. I sent it back and they gave me my money back with the return postage as well once they had checked it out. Rather annoying really, as i would have preferred to have kept it.

It was done at Bailey Performance in Broseley - just found out that I was told wrong on the phone , the torque is actually 167 .
Graham has posted the results on sylva chat , but I cant see it as it's a `.tif' whatever that means

Nice one Claire, I think that was the carbon you were working on when I came over for the compressor! Looks great in the car..
