Default Paul Lambert says they make about 270Hp with their 12V but ...

The engine is wrung out quite a bit and they are using an aftermarket engine ecu. I managed to chat with him last Saturday for a short while. He didn't go into too many details though. His car is setup for competition though.

<center><img src="http://members.aol.com/kenwoodsc/images/audi2.jpg"></center><p>I'm going to try to squeeze some more power out of my 12v. I'm going with a cat back exhaust, high flow cat (or may remove), bigger throttle body and mass air sensor (not sure who makes, anyone have any links?) I'd like to find a supercharger or bolt on turbo kit. Do the 12v's have forged internals? If I ever pull the heads they are going to recieve a port and polish job along with an improved camshaft. I'm going to mostly make the car handle better and make it a little quicker although I'd like to really make it get up and run.

Default Yup..

A custom turbo job has been done by a fellow 12v'r. Not to mention a list of other upgrades that have been done to the car but it should be seeing hp in the 400+ mark.

Along w/ Paul L. @ Stassis Engineering, they both are using seperate/stand alone ECU's by MoTec and I believe Rob is using WinTecII.

Default Take a look and see if they have anything for your engine...

Here are some cam manufacturers. E-mail them to find out what they have. They don't always list everything on their web site.

It shouldn't be too hard to find more info about your engine. 12V.org might be a good place to start...<ul><li><a href="http://www.12v.org/index.html">http://www.12v.org</a></li></ul>
