Went to see Paul and Chris at 1320 yesterday to have my Janspeed Mani fitted. Coffee and Hob Nobs all round as work commenced...

Some very interesting Minis parked up at 1320 too... Love the badges on yours Bigshow...

Spec

54 plate Facelift S

Borla race catback
15% pulley and belt
GRS Intercooler
Janspeed Manifold

Dynoed at 232bhp 197whp

Needless to say I'm very pleased... The Manifold certainly makes the car a lot louder too... I'll try and post a soundclip later...

It's very true what Paul says... It’s not how much you spend - but how well you spend it... I have saved an absolute fortune by following Paul and Chris's advice...

Thanks guys from one very happy MCS owner...

I had mine fitted the other day by Chris but I have a major problem at the moment so no results as of yet. The Janspeed is very loud, sounds absolutely awesome.... my mini went into 1320 sounding like a mini and came out sounding like a BTCC car LOL!!! it is so painful to not be able to mash the loud pedal yet!

Interesting how much Torque the Janspeed manifold seems to make.

Your torque curve looks very similar to mine i.e. peaking at 4875rpm which is nice

Strange how peak torque is the exactly the same on 2 different cars ...

My graphs is under the power graph thread elsewhere (numbers shown in sig).

Congrats on your new power, how much hp did the manifold gain over stock?

Very loud with that catback on

BigShow · Apr 30th, 2008, 06:37 PM

Awesome job sef, car sounds mint, can't wait to hear it on the Tunnel Run and thats some great power with those mods you must be well chuffed.

Thanks for the comments on the badges too, I'm just trying a few new things

Can't really answer that unfortunately... I didn't have it dynoed after the GRS IC was fitted...

But looking at the numbers it's approx 20bhp for the GRS and Mani...

Cheers, did you have a compression test done? If so what was the psi for each cylinder?

wibbly · Apr 30th, 2008, 07:15 PM

Damn that sounds good Sef

I didn't no... I'll be visiting 1320 again in the near future for cam and injectors so may well do it then...

If there's going to be a prize for loudest in the tunnel sef will win

I've mostly been enjoying second and third gears...

petervankessel · May 1st, 2008, 05:35 PM

232hp is a lot!

I have between 215 and 220hp and approx. 266Nm torque with:
Milltek catback
Milltek Manifold
15% Alta compressorpulley
102% Alta cranckpulley
Softwaretuning
GP intercooler

My baseline dyno was 185hp (stock)

Where does the difference come from?

cheers,
Peter
