My Build at last

[Scott.T]

Good results.
Peak torque may of shifted a bit to the right but it's generating a fair bit more at the lower rpm then the old setup.

I've never seen a RR plot with such a smooth lambda trace, there must be some serious filtering or low bandwith on that probe.

yeah...thats what I thought

One in the back for the RR one in the de-cat via Dave's lap top for the Motec & one for me in the car.

[Anger]

Yeah but only the RR one is showing on the graph isnt it

[Chunk]

Nice one mate

Cant complain at those figures

Glad your happy with it Nige The smiles back on the face now then


Quick RR novice question Whats DIN corrected wheel power? Guess the figures corrected against some form of standard! but whats the figure used and what does it relate too? All ready knowing the answers going to be too technical for me

Errrr i dont know tbh.

[Anger]

Have you seen them do any stock stuff Nige on the rollers to see how the rollers read to what the manufacturers quote.... Just wondering

Mate, thats brilliant news that it's all sorted.

Looks like it might be fairly quick that old thing. I think I might invest in some hooks and rope, as it looks like the only way I'm keeping up with you, is if I'm attached to the back of you!

Really chuffed for you mate

Roll on Germany and some Porker bashing!

Yes mate seen quite a few Scooby's majority of them make less than there ment to. Some make more like Paul Egertons did. Watched an Rs Focus mk2 with a 380bhp atf kit on it cost him over £3k bloke was gutted as it made only 5bhp over stock. It worked out to 315bhp atf.there 310bhp atf std. Then ive seen it go the other way to James own car make 630bhp atw. He was beaten at 30-130 by another gtr with 80bhp atw less? R/R are a good tool for setting up the car. There's nothing better than the old bum dyno though. The Evo as it is now is the fastest car ive owned & out on the road with it today nice & dry its quick enough.
Weather it will make the same figures on a different dyno is another thing?
I'm happy with it power wise unfortunately i'm not happy with the twisty bit's. It's all over the place {or i am} so just need to sort it out again. I think i was at this same point last year.

Hello mate. Apart from the power the only thing that changed was ns f wheel needed towing in a bit. Everything else was spot on? Out today on some of my fav roads i cant get it to do what it did. Just me needing to get in the swing of things again or that extra poke has upset the car?

You truly are a master at avoiding the issue

Joking aside nice to see the old girl back on the black stuff again

Just incase you forgot I will be buying my season ticket on Thursday and enjoying a bowl or two of ulrichs carrott soup, oh and maybe doing a lap or fifty

Enjoy it out there mate

Like nige says mate, c'mon..... spill the beans already!

Or, at least post a pic while you are out in Germany

Update as some know my car had some probs {no fault of the car} This has meant the cars return to JRM. There doing a full engine rebuild to 850bhp spec. I wont run this sort of power its just to make it safe for the power i do run.
Anyway things are looking up as my pistons turned up today. Engine is already stripped. Mike the engine builder has one other to finish then he's on mine. Will update when i know more.

Good news Pistons have turned up. Head is now back together. Short week ahead so maybe the week after & it should be back in the whole & ready for running in/up. It made ish bhp + ftlb torque last time with a sick 2.0 litre engine. So should make same ish figures this time around. Clutch will be busy though {foobard}. Boost will be turned way down for Germany. Good job i have breakdown cover abroad.

[Steve_PPP]

Even with the boost turned down, its one quick car mate!

[jura11]

Nige 570bhp,bloody hell,i bet will be monster

Good luck in Germany

Update. My block went away for a re-bore today & should be back on Thursday this week. Head is back together {cars not mine} + a little more safety stuff, all gaskets & bearings are ready. Got a new rad today as mine was damaged. Using a Koyo rad normally for an Evo 6. It moves the top hose further away from the turbo. Under bonnet prep work done + painted my gearbox.

coming together now!

I knew you'd get a koyo rad before me

All sounding good mate.
Are you selling body parts or something.

Fingers crossed for you mate.

I know how much it means to you.

Your not wrong mate. I need this now it means more to me than last year. Just down to time now. It's giving me a right nightmare. James is away & people wont move until he gives the go ahead. Ive been trying to tell them ITS MY CAR I GIVE YOU THE GO AHEAD {not meaning to sound bad} but thing need to move. I took the day off work today just to be down there. I will be back there tomorrow before my night shift to! I want this to happen big time. Ive canceled 1 track day due to this. Germany is now my goal.

Fingers crossed Nige.

I am surprised that people are sitting on their hands a bit there. James gave you his word that it will be done, no questions asked etc. Surely someone else must know the score ( a manager of sorts) , they should be pushing things at a rapid pace really mate.

Mate, you know you have a shed load of people on here who will drop everything to help you if required. Banter apart, we all want you down there with us and not in a half cocked way.

Don't leave things too late to ask for help if you want any. Me personally, I'm ****ing useless mechanically, but I make bloody good coffee for those who who are oil infected, spanner wielding, engine monkeys.

As Steve said, Nige forget the banter, you have to go, Germany without Nige. I dont think so.
You still got a few weeks mate, I guess the sooner its running the better. More time to get a few miles on it, make sure all is good.
After going in it at brands, i am dying to see what sort of time you can get around the ring.

[Anger]

As said above Nige... Anything i can help with let me know

Thanks for the offer's of help people. To be honest there is not allot to do at the moment. There machine for doing re-bores & the drill thingy that dose the business has broken. So the engine block has to be done by another company. The block is now with them. Its meant to be back tomorrow.. Next week Thursday/Friday the engine should be ready to put back in the whole.

[DukeBoy]

Is there anything that doesn't break down there when they've got you car?

Hope you get it all sorted

[Anger]

I'll run it in for you Nige
















Run it into the ground that is lol

It used to go round the Nurburgring bloody quickly when it was "Standard"

Question is,will Nige better the time that the Evo has done around the ring.

I think that's what he's after

I can't remember Neils exact time round the ring in that Evo, but I DO remember it being fookin quick.

Also helps having a few hundred laps under your belt

Sub 8min when std. There is no way i can beat that without more time at the Ring. Ive only been 3 times. Will look forward to Taxi chase though this year. Well try to wave at Sabine again like last year.

Not really mate. The car is mine now as ive changed most of it As everyone dose just to put your own stamp on it. It didn't need changing. As a std car it was fantastic it should be bloody brilliant now. The car has never let me down! Just some of the people. It will get there in the end

[ralliart didz]

maybe i can come with you guys next year.if only its 4 a beer as my sport wont keep up with you boys

[SpecB]

On the ring it could - Should see the speeds some of the locals go in their little golfs etc!

More work today & a couple of pics

[Hongkongfooi]

Oh Yes. Reading the instructions it says the clutch will need beding in for 800 & up to 1000 miles Bloody hell Do they not realise how much that will cost in fuel. With this set up i will be lucky to get into double figures

That's a special looking bit of kit mate.
You ate going to need to drive to bloomin scotland and back to run everything in. So about £300 in fuel. Ouch

Are things looking up though mate
