I think Mani J. was around 490 rwhp. Read his write-up on to4r.com. Very interesting to say the least. -Olivier ----- I guess I'll be surfing here until...I get tired of it!

I thought BPU++ was only Boost controler, exhaust, intake, cam gears, lighten crank pully set and cam shafts. After you go into a FMIC, stand alones, or fuel system upgrades then it isn't a BPU car but a modified car.

Until you goto an upgraded turbo or engine internals you are still BPU and not APU (advanced performance upgrades), I believe. examples of pluses: crank shaft pulley cam gears accessory pulleys l/w flywheel FMIC ECU control of some sort etc. - but don't quote me on that - Matt 10/94

No...should yield you around 400 rwhp...not much more than that. When you add the +++, that's when you get around 430-450. Just so you know, 450 rwhp is a damn strong BPU car!!  Only single or aftermarket twins are considered APU. APUw/Nitrous is considered that...APUw/Nitrous! Or double-power adder maybe!? There is no exact word or whatever. As long as the people are honest about what they have...It would be stupid to be claiming over 500 rwhp, saying you are BPU when in fact you are spraying. Camshafts are still BPU... -Olivier ----- Your regular car freak...Cheers!
