That's looking really nice Nige !!
You are in good hands there mate.

Was a pain that I never knew your car was on the stand Sunday at TA.
I was standing there for ages too, due to them firing up one of the FIA monsters.

Your more than welcome mate. Just make sure you give me some warning as it spends more time at JRM waiting on some secret bits.

Turbo fitted today + new Miltek & V-band elbow & downpipe May not mean much to the Scooby guy's. The V-band elbow & downpipe is like trying to find a cheap 22B so very hard to get. Still not up & running due to oil line delivery. Hell are makeing me up some braided line's & are due tommorow. Then will have to wait for mapping.

Default Dave Rowe hits the sweet spot
A good day for the Evo @ JRM. Full tank of juice, Dave Rowe , James Rumsey & my car. All set to go by 11am. We set about sorting the previous map out . Once on the move the car performed well & it just got better. The sound of the new Miltek is exactly what i was after. The whistle from the new Turbo is fantastic. The new turbosmart dv made some silly noises at 1st until i wound it's neck in. Anyway to say im pleased is an understatement. The guy's who ive been to Germany with before will tell you my car didn't hang about. Well now it's a different animal. Just remember my car is a 2 litre This was done on 97ron petrol {just to be safe when we go to the Ring} 3bar map sensor {with a 4bar it would make more} & my fpr set at 3 bar. Turbo running at 2 bar. You will see a dip at the top the driver Paul Egerton took his foot off the gas a tad early.


The power is at the wheels. The 1st pic is were my old turbo was last year. Overlay to my new turbo.

Bum dyno say's Fooking fast but remember ive not been in anything quick for a while. Depend's on how you work it out + 22% + 24% there is another one but im not to botherd as it drives better than i thought it would. I cant stop smiling tbh. My plan worked. Nobody as far as i know has run this turbo on a 2litre so it was a gamble. Im off in the morn for an early run over my old bike haunts if its dry. Just to shake a few cobwebs out.

Mark knows his stuff mate & the bum dyno is a good one. That sort of poke in a 5 make one hell of a road/track car

Mine was 450 ish at the flywheel Nige.....I stand corrected by my son who had it mapped at Mr Sheads it was about 440 WHP would have done more but the T67 wouldnt puff more than 1.8 although it held it pretty well. But it was quick....just down the road from me is Camtune my son had a set to with a 911 Turbo and it was bye bye.

It took a while for the brain to take it in, and to change gear without hitting the limiter...I had a greddy T67 on it. Ran out of puff at 1.8 .....Apart from the banana manifold cracking a few times it was totally reliable......In 2 years bugger all went wrong ......Brilliant car. My son is more the scooby person I still hanker after an RSeveryone.

Would be good as he is looking for blood! Mine that is. So if we can get him sorted with a passenger extra weight an all that would put a smile on my face. Paul has a Jimmy built 2.2 forged Coswoth Evo running a Gt35
He didnt like the kicking i gave him at Brands so now want's revenge BIG TIME! Paul as some of you Know like Anger is from the Drag scene & know's a thing or 2 about fast cars. Should be interesting this year Any bet's?
