Was that a board rack on the top of your car?
Some people just don't fit the image of Bentley.

So whats the specification / tech on those turbos?
I was looking at a company over here " Forge Motorsport" who can tune my Speed for an extra 100 bhp with no exhaust or cat changes and keeping th standard speed turbos. Unfortunately its around £4000 GBP so I'm not sure when or if I'm going to have it done.
What do you expect to get out of yours power wise with those mods??

Cool....
That should be some car to drive with 382 bhp/metric tonne. I find my speed a little under powered but that's only because I came from a 650+ bhp 911 turbo with 700kg less weight than the Bentley. It had 402 bhp/metric tonne and to be quite honest was difficult to use on the public roads
but I did try
What do you know about the tech on the turbos

I can only tell you that either you custom build your own turbos or try to fit an aftermarket one in there. It's an extremely tight fit.

Thanks
As you can see, I'm more than a little interested in your turbos.
Are they your own custom build?
Why the change....do they flow more air?
What did you do to make them etc.
Thanks for more info.....I'm an info phobe.....cant get enough of it.

such as remapping your tranny ECU and master ECU. I pulled over 900hp on 91 octane and only 10psi of boost. The car has a lot of mods. I am just slowly putting her together the way I think she would be. Safe to drive and a beast
