iv been to the tuning shop today and wasted some more pennys, lol

had a new ats2 cam fitted, some 'slight' head skimming, new high powered started to turn it over lol, crank arps, carb retune, HG, bolts ect:

she made 107bhp @ 6800rpm,

not bad from a 1.4 with a crappy twin choke,:thumb:

the psi in each cylinder is 263psi, what this is cr terms ?

and she goes like a rocket, starts fine, runs fine (mike can vouch for this) :)
edit : and it still has the std 1.2 exhaust system and manifold on lol

baxter you cant work out the compression ratio from how much pressure you have in the cylinder. you need to take the head off again and measure the combustion chamber volumn
