Its always good to pull harder for longer indeed

Small update since our return from Spa, and new engine fitted I attempted to buy some
Alcon 365mm Calipers and discs today only to find out that they dont quite fit under my current wheels (don't think they will fit under either of my sets )

So now have some decision making to do on that front, as not sure what the best step forward is.. currently looking at lots of wheels!

I also had the map re-tweeked today after a dyno pull last Saturday revealed the car was running a little bit rich and was down a little bit on power from where we had expected it to be. We had originally mapped with a bit of leak on the IC pipework and with the knowledge that engine was an unknown on its way to Spa a week after fitting had been done on the safe side. (385bhp/320lb/ft at 1.45 bar and 10.8's on the AFR)

Hats of to Richard at FB Tuning who assisted me with fitting a few bits and then re-tweeked the fuelling, turned the boost up just a smidge and told me there was room for a little more!.. As I did not manage to fit any brakes today I had time to dive in on Charlie at Surrey Rolling road for a quick power run to see how much difference the little tweek had made..

Quite happy with the results

440/380 @1.6bar will do nicely

Shame about the Alcons but I am sure your will find a solution one way or another.

Some really good results from that JDM lump and glad to hear everything should have been ironed out to make it both reliable and 'pokey'! I wonder if running at 440 makes you a little on the nervous side for your longevity...?

Blocks are the same internals slightly different, pistons and cams/heads

There are plenty of folk running standard UK 2.0 north of 450

No denying the JDM block can take a lot, and that UK lumps are running plenty too, but I know Dave is a man who, despite all his track time, likes his engine to be well within its limits and running as sweet as a nut.

440 should make for a cracking car.

Much more and it would be utterly pointless on the road in my opinion as you'd never really get to stretch its legs.

I'm not massively superstitious, but I'm not sure I'd have tinkered with my car on Friday 13th!!

Thats why the brakes didn't fit under my wheels!! Grrr!

It definitely shifts a little more urgently than before

I do Rob!, its within safe limits at the mo, but I would not really want to push any more boost on the standard headbolts, defi's are reading 1.7 1.75bar

Hmm not sure what to do both sets of my wheels won't fit and Ricky didn't like the bbs's or speedlines. Though he offered to sell me some wheels!

It would sustain the torque plateau a bit better too, removing that torque spike.

Yeah there is definitely scope to push the timing up there in the mid range, Rich had said as much also. He said 450 even 460 or beyond is possible at this boost level with a little more aggressive timing at the top also which was encouraging, definitely don't really want to push more boost on the standard gaskets and head bolts, although we tested at 1.75 and all was fine only dyno'd at 1.7

Fuelling is around 11.5 to 11.7

Boost creeping up at 5500 WOT is also worth a look at.
If that run was in 3rd or 4th on the Dyno the effect out on the road will be higher and for longer in 5th and 6th. So a potential hazard for track style driving where your clicking upto 120+ in the higher gears.

Yeah 4th on the dyno, not sure if it had something to do with the avcr still learning or being in learn mode in 4th and 5th, but quite often hit the top of 5th on track, it has always seemed to creep a little there

Standard ecu struggles to control boost past 1.5/ 1.6 bar as far as I am aware.

I remember you saying about 3d boost mapping was better on the standard ecu.

I'm not sure either... I obviously don't look in Dave's engine bay enough! I think it might be dampers too Scotty.

Small update again,

I have managed to lay my hands on something that makes the car stop a little better, after realising with recent increases to power that straight line speed down the straights on trackdays has gone up by a fair whack this seemed a prudent move.

I had a prompt from a friendly fellow trackday addict that these little numbers where coming up for sale so a deal was done!.. they are a bit of tight fit under 18's!

Please excuse the dirty wheel arches in the pics

That is a tight fit, sigh of relief when you got the wheels over I bet? Look the dogs though Dave and certainly suggests you are running a decent set up under the bonnet!

Handbrake said.. "don't bother" but I am tempted.. also tempted to get the rear kit.. if I win the lottery

Though I did take a quick look the other night to try and find some "alcon" coloured paint as the rears will need a refresh and rebuild at some point in the not too distant future.

That was going to be my next question... Shame, I guess the other wheels will have to be sold to return some funds?

The fact you have 'disfigured' your fog light covers only adds to that stealthy look, ha!

I still have the originals for that extra stealthy look if the need arises!

Yes will have to pop them up for sale I guess.. I don't want too as really like those wheels! but needs must and so on. I've been trying to find suitable replacements.. must be super light.. must look awesome and not be tacky etc etc.. its not easy!

Fitted Some new front pads today, Pagid RS29.. All im saying is... Holly crap what a difference! Super sharp bite and pedal response to gentle modulation, think I need some for the rear now!

Also bought some minor fueling bits and pieces to make a little improvement, watch this space.

Glad a new set of pads made for a big improvement, I presume you were using the pads that came with those calipers when you bought them, any idea what they were?

look forward to hearing more about you fueling improvements, get some more 'go juice' flowing
