Good man There's a RWYB session on Sunday 28th February - how does this suit everyone?
-
It's still well worth it for the sake of £35
-
I much prefer going round a track, but it's still a good laugh I really wished I'd had got a 1/4mile time on the old setup so I could compare to the new one, so it's be good to see you there so I can have a rough guess of what mine would have been

Including the wing?

Sorry for no updates, we've had a couple of issues with the MAP sensor so I'm not releasing any numbers until Mark @ Abbey is completely happy with his work on the car Had it back for the weekend and it feels amazing. Torque all over the place and she just pulls like a train Back to Abbey later this week for Mark to play around a bit more and when he is happy that he's done all he can, numbers will be announced

Thanks for your input Mark. I had good drive to Brands hatch and back today, a mixture of all different sort of roads so it gave me a good chance to really see what she can do now that there's a decent map in place The torque is endless in any gear. Cruising at motorway speeds I'm able to just dab the throttle to overtake with ease without coming out of 6th gear Going from around 30mph in 2nd gear is just insane, car picks up instantly and 3rd and 4th gear are dealt with extremely quickly I haven't got an IAT gauge yet to monitor inlet temps but it's on the cards, but with the extremely cold weather today the car just loved it The event at Brands was really good, despite it being below freezing when I woke up this morning and when we arrived! Car was in the show and shine section and was considered for best wheels, best paint, best interior and car of the show, but sadly there was stiff competition so no trophies for me today Car's back with Mark tomorrow to work some more of his magic before we post up official numbers

Not great. Issues with the MAP sensor not liking the Sprintex/ECUTEK setup which is the same for the boys in the States so ECUTEK are looking into that for Mark, and the IAT's are very, very high even on a 15 second dyno run I've got the car back for a show tomorrow at Brands Hatch so I spent the day giving her a well needed clean Mark has worked some great magic so far and I've got a decent map with 7000krpm to play with. The drive home was just insane. Pulls like an absolute train and triple digit speeds come far quicker than I expected But then back to Mark Monday for some more tweaking before we release a final number, but it may not be what we were hoping for...yet

Won't be able to get a day off in the week, start a new job on the 4th January
-
I know of it, just don't know any details until Kev posted the link I'd be up for a day or maybe 2
-
Who? What? Where? When? Why?
-
Just don't get used to putting your foot flat to the floor to go anywhere. Might give you a bit of shock when you get into one of the 86's
-
Looking forward to next year mate
-
The engine alone nob-head
-
Just send £15k to me and you can have it
-
Why you there Friday? Spying on my car?
-
Oh thanks!
-
I think we'll see a bit more than that, IAT's shouldn't play a huge part on the dyno as it'll have a chance to "relax" between each run. Not like on track where you're hammering it every few seconds between the corners
-
How does that rhyme?
-
I like your optimism, but I sadly think it'll be fairly short of this...for now
-
I don't understand how that's strategic...?
-
Numbers are quite varied...I like it Keep them coming
-
Car dropped off to Abbey this morning. Eagerly awaiting results when I pick her up on Saturday!

Replacing the fuel pump for something bigger? Certainly solved my old Toyota fuel pump chirp
