DE & HR refers to the type of engine

MY is the model / year

 

(i think) :wacko:

 

:thumbs:

 

DE is the years 03-06 (276 BHP)

RevUp is years 06-07 (297 BHP)

HR is years 07+(313 BHP)

 

MY is just the year, so I had a MY07 (297 BHP) car

So I've got a DE MY06 (276BHP)

 

:)

 

Will that ever be relavant for parts?

 

Yes, so if you ever have to :pmzmanalex: for engine related stuff make sure you say which type you have :thumbs:

 

He'll always ask for the chassis number just for avoidance of doubt :thumbs:

No you didn't.

 

You had a MY06 on an 07 plate.

 

MY03 - 276bhp (03-55 plates)

MY06 - 297bhp (06-56 plates)

MY07 - 309 bhp (07+ plates)

 

Naturally some cars got registered late, hence your car was registered as an 07 plate but was actually a MY06 car.

No, like mine yours is actually an MY03 model, mine was also reg'd in 2006 but manufactured in 2005.

 

FYI there is also an MY02 model, rather uncommon here as they are all JDM imports.

Well, you learn something new every day :thumbs:

Revups are poo!

 

They don't dyno at what they should on paper, they don't produce the same gains with NA mods as like the early DE. They can benefit from the MREV2 lower collector, which is basically a modified pre revup lower collector which has the front two collectors modified.

 

It burns oil and costs more to tax.

 

Wish I had the earlier DE but the advantage of the revup (not including GT4) was the facelift improvements.

 

If anything the HR was the car to have, benefits from both the DE and revup and gained the bonnet buldge and twin intakes.

 

370 for me is quite different in many ways to the 350. Has a lot of positive improvements and some negative in comparison to the 350.
