vtec2011 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Oh wow! I was guessing you was to get about 185ish bhp but 193bhp? Good results! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Yeah I'm well chuffed. I was hoping for around 190. Tad under expected. This is a very good result for a c4. Don't think many would get this high so yeah I'm over the moon actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 In fact. I've always been paranoid ever since owning this engine. It's really noisy. Ticky. But it always looks after me. Reliable. And responding well. I watched it bounce off the limiter 10 times today and not a hint of smoke at all. Not bad really it's covered over 120k miles. And I've punished it! Goes to show what good servicing does. New oil and filter every 3k max. And anything needed done straight away 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Not to mention it's 14/15 years old too! Most excellent engine after all mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I am exactly the same with my car. I know it's only a little D15 and it's nothing special but I give it a oil and oil filter change every 6k miles. Now on 121k and no blue smoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Look after them and they look after you!!! Guess that's why so many of us go the extra mile servicing. I mean ya wouldn't get dizzy caps and magnacors with a £99 kwik fit service. Just a splash of cheap oil and ya washer bottle filled up.
