Brian said his 4wd dyno reads around 10bhp lower than his 2wd set-up, for whatever reason.

So it was making a recorded 120bhp (more like 130bhp in reality) on the dyno. What was nice though is that it was still making power at 4,500rpm. If we’d revved it out to 5-5,500rpm it would certainly have been a bit higher still.

Although it’s a low mileage 3.5, Brian did say it would benefit from a cam change sometime in the future for peace of mind if nothing else. Charlie

Very much so! The low comp. 3.5 is quoted as 134bhp from factory, but Brian said he rarely sees them get above 115bhp (roughly) when completely stock. Charlie
