    Any INFO on orange s14 P120 TBW ?

    Hi all

    im after if anybody has any info or used to own a bright orange s14, P120 TBW ?

    One of my mates boss is going to have a look at it in leeds. It was advertised on swapz.co.uk. The add said it has 450bhp but is only listed for 3.5k the guy in his 50's said he has receipts but all the work was done by the owner before.

    The odd pic my mate has managed to get from him show the engine bay but it certainly doesnt look like it has that sort of engine. For a start it has a stock afm and stock rad a bleed valve rather than electronic boost controller and not the best manifold :/

    If any body can shed any light on the car that would be great

    I doubt if it is running 450bhp.You never know though!you need more info about exactly what work was done,and preferably a rolling road printout.I would want to see receipts for a forged engine build too.A RR session should only cost £50 or so and well worth it for peace of mind!

    That adhesive aluminum ducting tape that can't cope with that sort of heat?,possibly?,
    rocker cover pipe looks very close to No1 primary pipe, and I doubt its even 400 rampant stallions, ,
    stock AFM and that Apex type 2 mani make's stock valve springs bounce at over 1.2 bar ,someone on here found,ABT possibly?
    no proof of engine work,dyno printouts etc its just pub banter power figures,with out cams it wont be over 350 tbh
    as mentioned plenty for sale hold onto your cash and keep looking imo
