I think it sounds about right, if the boost has been upped. I also have a 2.0GT and its been V-tuned on the same dyno to 138 kw atw keeping the standard boost (i think in the low 14 psi area). I have no other mods at all. I think its plausable for an extra 11 kw over my car on the same dyno with a marginal increase in boost.

With even all the extra mods that have been discussed in this thread you will be pushing to get more than 170 atw on the docklands dyno - the turbo just doesn't cut it for top end i'm afraid...

Also, the dyno is docklands is a dyno dynamics if im not mistaken.

Ha ha ha, I thought the same thing when Vin was mentioned and had to do a double take on the dates. Another week and it would have made it even more confusing.
