Instead of lowering the price by 2k why don't you spend £300 getting the car mapped then selling it as a genuine ??? bhp car and asking your original price :?

Hi Martin,

Fair words.... 2 issues... I haven't the time to get it sorted and 2 there is no guarantee that it would give me a higher asking price. Then it means I'm ploughing more money into a car I want to sell.

What exhaust housing is the turbo?

I think you're problem is advertising it as 500+bhp, when the spec (ignoring NOS) is probably more like 400hp. Sure- it may well make 500hp with a 125 shot of NOS, but you've never done it....why not?

I'd say go and map it, then it should make the cash you're asking....as is most folk on here will look at it as too much of an unknown/ risk...why build such a high spec car and not do the final bit and map it? Makes no sense unless you know something we don't?

None of this meant as criticism, hopefully helpful advice...go get it mapped mate :thumleft:

I've already given someone first refusal on it should I go down the breaking route. An £1000 wouldn't lift it anyway to be honest.

Fair points, but me spending another £300 doesn't mean I'm going to get it sold at that price. If I map it and take the time I don't have to sort that out then I'll be keeping it rather than selling. Hence the reason for the sale. I don't take any of it as Critism, but didn't appreciate the "maybe you know something we don't". How could I take that one well? But freedom of speech is something I can appreciate :-)

If I only made 400bhp out of the car id be heart broken!! The Motorsport company that built it guarantee that it can make an easy 500 :-). I'd be pretty trusting of that.

My apologies- genuinely didn't mean it come across like that- was trying to illustrate the type of questions potential buyers would be thinking based on what you've advertised. Sorry!

No problem whatsoever Ashley.... I sure you didn't. If I sold the car and anything wasn't as described is happily pay for anything tone rectified, issue full refund, etc. I'm selling this because I really haven't the time or headspace for it anymore. I just can't be bothered anymore. It's certainly not the money....as I'm losing bucket loads, I just want it up the road tone honest. :-) I appreciate the feedback.....This has to be the best forum around.... And it's the blokes on here that make it that, including yourself!
