Grande Punto red t jet (2007) 219bhp.

Introduction

cruise_for_heroes_3_modfied_cars_52_.jpg


here is a picture of my red t-jet taken by fastcar at a recent charity event. you cant really see in the picture but there is a side exit stainless steel exhaust system, that is really the only major modification to the exterior of the car. the other exterior modifications such as the wheels have been based around the standard 17" rims that fiat fitted on the car. all i have had done is to have them powdercoated in black then added red and gold candy flake into them.

under the bonnet the engine has virtually been rebuilt with new parts including uprated turbo,intercooler,plugs,induction,cams,mapping etc.
i had the car put on a rolling road a few months ago and the end result showed the car was producing a shade under 220bhp. there a few other little bits ive got planned for the engine over the coming months and i shall keep you all updated with the progress :)
Re: red t jet (2007) 219bhp

im good friends with ben and nothing on the car has been changed since he sold it as he would of told me since i have the same modifications as his and is only running 180bhp with 211lbs torque and am wanting to get a bit more out of it

it still has the vl36 turbo and it doesnt have different cams it is still running 192 bhp he did however fit a new engine in it about a year ago and put his old map on it but never had it rolling roaded again

i dont mean to be rude but i am sticking up for ben as keiran is trying to pass it as his own work all his done is changed the seats and replaced the pistons with cheapys because the 4th piston cracked

Ben told me the same the new engine blowed up as number 4 piston was a n/a piston but also he did think it was down to fueling as he was running 190 odd bhp on standard injectors :eek: so if your car is still the same when ben had it, i.e running 190bhp on standard injectors think about getting some ss ones. all the info is in his theards so take a look if needed :)

i was looking into new injectors as well as the 3 sensors but decided to leave the car at a safe 180bhp after the piston inccident as i was driving along next to him at the time it happened :( lol ive now focused on changing the appearance to make it unique will have a new thread up this week as the wheels are going back on tomorrow and it wheel be finished :) would like everyone to have a look and tell me what you think
 
im good mate with both ben and tom , as we all live in the same area .. but im sorry kieron but i no as full well as you do that car is under 200 bhp !
