Unfortunately after much deliberation I'm having to sell my 2009 MK IndyBlade
This car is not for the faint hearted, it's a seriously quick car. Weighing only 490Kg and being powered by a high performance Honda Fireblade
engine (approx 130Bhp) this stunning car has over 260Bhp/Ton and will hit 60mph from a standstill in a little over 4 seconds. Built by myself (a BMW
technician) in 2008/09 and registered on 1 June 2009 this car has only covered 1500 miles. Due to the light weight of the car and the size of the
engine this vehicle not only gives blistering performance but also returns an average of 28Mpg with my best return of 37Mpg.
Taxed to the end of 11/2010
MOT due June 2012

That may be my mistake then, I was told on here that as a Q plate I will be visual smoke only. I'll clarify tonight after I've checked the emmisions for the car.

Great looking car!
How have you got 130 BHP out of that engine?
I've had lots of 919 blades on the rollers and get around 120 bhp on them all. Thats with a good exhaust, K&N and Dynojet fitted in my race
car!
Looks like your rollers must be off pal.

Nice car that. The smoke is tested at old car standards 3.5co and 1200hc's.
nice, very nice. good luck, really miss my Blade 
I'm familiar with that website and the figures on there. I'm not trying to ruffle your feathers
but if your basing you 130 bhp on that
site its inaccurate. Your engine is quoted as 124bhp, I bet you will see nearer to 115bhp at best
A guy I raced with spent a LOT of money on a 919 blade. He had a lot of head work done including flow bench testing, he then spent a lot of money on
a fancy exhaust as well as a fully balanced bottom end with new pistons and rods. Finally vernier's and high lift long duration
'lumpy' cams. He saw 130bhp+ but it made for a dreadful engine in the bottom and middle of the rev range.
So, returning to the reason for my question; you may have achieved 130 bhp by other means? In which case I was interested to know some of your
secrets?

Depends if you are talking rear wheel HP or HP at the crank. There are plenty of "standard" blades with good airbox and pipes that can reach
130bhp at the crank. I would guess that this is the figure Mark refers to.

Thats very misleading. The issuing of a Q plate by the DVLA has absolutely no relevance to the emissions testing performed by VOSA for the SVA / IVA. Its whatever the engine was tested as when it had its SVA / IVA done. The Q plate ruling applies only to cars pre SVA.

Carpmart, I don't see why you should have so much trouble achieving 2Bhp above standard on a tuned engine. As it says in the advert it is only an approximate figure and as progers said above I was refering to the crank power.
