The large amount of more torque in the lower revs is very impressive
just what you need on an 8vwas on an 8v mk2b

Thats good power from an 8v, what other mods has it got?

owner be here soon i hope. i dont think he got anymore mods, maybe zorst
is there no standard run though?
and if no more mods RR looks to be over reading.

he had no standard box an i forgot to take one.
an shut up with ya over reading propaganda
some cars just come out the factory with more power than makers claim, especially after engine has loosened up

its my car
its got a cat back powerflow exhaust and just the GSR.
I got it at 32k miles and its now on 57k and from day one its been well took to its near limits (alot)

im interested to know the differance in hp and torque between a BMC CDA and a GSR.
finally it has been proven that gsr are better thn them focus ones
even if it was the comparison would stand
OP
OP
we did one on my car when it has the 1.2 16 engine in, was +4bhp and a lot more torque for the gsr, graph is on here some where.

we knew that all along
Just some of us would rather not spend the extra money for what seems to be a little bit of improvement on performance.

ah you not realise what you can do with that extra torque in the lower revs

that amount of torque i got it really does help. Sounds loads better and now i can pull up hils in higher gears
And the fuel economy just on the way home was loads better than the way there

Concluding evidence to suggest the gsr is better than a focus.
The focus induction kit isnt to bad compared to the GSR
But bear in mind the price difference, ye fair enough you want more power and torque, but for around 4 times the money, there isnt much difference.

Precisely...we knew that all along

Everyone knows the GSR is better than the focus..
The fact is the Focus kit (in this instance) doesn't lose any power, to which people live by it does. The test would have to be done lots of time to be generalised though.
2hp difference isn't bad tbh. I'm happy with my focus styled.
OP
OP
its not a fact yet as we didnt have a standard car and airbox to test it on. you cant just say something is a fact with no proper test to back it up.
its torque you should be paying attension to not so much the bhp, this is what gives your car pull
That's why I put the thing in brackets...
Plus (talking bhp), I really don't think the standard bhp would be 74bhp. Only gaining 1bhp for the GSR.

Peter has told people a lot of times (dont know if you know sorry if i sound a cock) that the GSR kit on the 8v was to improve torque rather than BHP, and any higher BHP would be not massively noticed

I disagree, the sports exhaust has the potential to increase the BHP over standard, so the engine sucks more juice, puts out more power needs more air. There's no evidence here that the GSR would be any better than the Focus kit in a stock 1.2 8v.
