Thread: KW to BHP

    KW to BHP

    Hi folks, been reading through your threads on the K04-001 set up, its never really done over here for some reason people think its a waste of money etc. Just want to make sure when you talk about KW power that its a the crank and not the wheels like americans measure it? Also 1bhp is equal to .75 kw am lead to believe.

    Thank you

    I frequented around there alot, went to the magnum and had mates in crosshouse. I served my time at Ingrams when it was Vw and Audi mate all changed now, was a member of the TA in Dreghorn too. Did some security in a crazy pub in the mall in Irvine too mate back in the day.
    Anyway how is the dub scene now??? was huge then, bugjam every summer, run to the sun and Vw action. Gti international was a goodie too.
    Parents still live up the road from you, Dad runs Porsches and Audis still.
    Cheers
    by the way 35 was warm but what about 38 today, OMG

    DUB scene is still going nice and strong mate

    That nightclub (if you can call it that) is still there, not been in it in years tho! Bit heavy rock place now i think. What was it called when you worked there? Changed names lots of times!

    Yeah, stay about 2mins from dreghorn mate, Girdle Toll?

    Ingrams is still there with VW and Audi and Skoda. There are lots of new garages in Ayr now, Renault, Merc, two Audi, Land Rover etc! lol

    Rosies if i remember right, was a right old dive. Plenty of action mind you LOL. I used to got to Bugjam every year without fail. I think they might still do some shows up at Kames , i know they still do sprints and the likes, the Pog would kick ace up there.
