Turbo Gem Power

Just thought that some of you would like to know that I got the Gemini Dynoed the other week. The old girl put down 103hp at the wheels with 4.6 psi of boost. The only mods are a 2.5" cat back exhaust and the microtech computer. For those of you that don't know the car it is fitted with the Piazza turbo engine. I am taking it back next week for another tune and some more boost. Hoping to crack 135hp at the wheels which will be 100rwkw. The car will be in brisbane for another week or so until the final tune so if you want to have a look at the conversion or anything give me a yell

Cheers
Paul

your a smoker mate. i take it u havent seen the black n/a 1800 gemini wagon runing 11's

just cos ya dole money can only get u in the 17's dont mean other ppl cant do it.

i have 2 mates runing low 13's n/a geminis and to do that u need around 150-160rwkw. so there cars run 13's so im pritty sure there got around 150-160rwkw.
my 100rwkw got mid 15's.

but hey, with all this what the fuck would i kow anyways. i forgot, geminis can only get 70rwkw and thats it no matter what u do thats it. and why is that? cos fucking Bugle said so, and everyone kows what he says myste be the truth cos the fucking earth evolves around him
