Heh heh - I loved the noise too - Way glad you still remember the trip mate! - we'll do it again matey - I didn't order those bloody calipers though - Will do so tomorrow if I can - D'oh! (Got my replacement studs from Nissan though! )

Good news! - I checked with Thor, and Lyndon said that the heading IS incorrect for my graphs, and that the figure for the flywheel should be calculated by using a multiplier, which they don't use for most setups.

Thor therefore normally leave it set to 1.0 (i.e. the same amount - What it *should* be for my Silvia is 1.18 (i.e. 18% transmission loss (it's the figure that reads 1.0 on the graph, and is called TCF - It's to do with the transmission loss calculation, to put the extra horses BACK into the equation, as Thor measure power from the wheels.)

Hopefully that clears it up! - So, as I say, I deffo had at LEAST 520BHP when the graph was printed...

( Incidentally, Lyndon mentioned that he's ordered himself a Hyper-bearing turbo for his Supra, which he says starts making boost from as little as 1,000rpm! gimmee sum o' dat! )
