I'm hoping to achieve 400 hp at the crank and over 300 at the wheels. I will run both on petrol and LPG for a comparison.

Mods so far are:
K&N cone filters
"Chipped" ECU (not a custom map though, bought off ebay)
Sports cats
Straight through centre section (no resonator)
Remus back box

I'm flying in to the UK tomorrow and staying in Little Chalfont, Amersham until Sunday. Is Alyesbury nearby ??.
I won't have my SL500 though either a Vectra or Laguna Hire car (oh the embarrassment )

James (oops, Simon must have been someone else I was talking to, I get easily confused), make that the A413 and we'll see you there. Head straight through Aylesbury following signs for Bicester and the A413. When you see Macdonalds on your left, I think Rabans Lane is left at the second roundabout, but it is clearly signposted as it is a large industrial estate. (or I can meet you en route if that's easier)

Stuart

Thats cool that you decided to dyno your SL600.
I'm sure it will be great to finally learn what RWHP you guys are pushing.
Make sure you tell the opperator to show the run in RPM's with Air/Fuel at the bottom (just in case your ECU needs some tinkering due to the mods you've added)

I'm guessing you should be somewhere in the mid 320's.
