This is correct - I run nothing but V-Power in my car (unless what I have left isn't going to get me to a Shell, in which case I use BP Ultimate).

Still haven't had a chance to scan the sheet, was going to bring it to work to do but was running epic late and forgot to grab it.

I only use a Generic KPM tune, I'd have no idea what its tuned for just that its tuned for 95ron. Intake and Exhaust and the generic tune are my only mods. Good on him for making that power, but Id still like to see it backed up with a 1/4 mile time.

My AU made 188rwhp about a year and a bit ago, it had 4480's, hi flow cat, 2 1/2" catback and a crow cam with double valve springs. No tuning whatsoever.

It was a cam which had been ground down a lot, and was around the same profile as a HP cam if I remember properly.

Probably, but the HP engines really are good. Ive been looking for a wreck with one in it, so I can get the head and cam. Plus the LSD with diff gears. I reckon they were the best 6 cylinder Ford have made, I like it even more than the DOHC.
