Thanks again Rich for another good day out.Nice to meet old and new faces alike. Happy with my result which was the same as I got to within 1bhp 6 weeks ago on same rollers. (340bhp) Now for a bigger turbo!!! Cheers.

 

Big thanks Rich for another great day out. Happy with my result which was to within 1bhp of a run on same rollers 6 weeks ago.
Now for a bigger turbo!!!!

 

Stammer? MR2 did 250bhp from memory I think.

 

250....
Damn it's evil handling, 2WD, yellow soul
Bet his torque was only about 180 tho

Editted coz I got finger trouble !

my Piccis are in members gallery.

 

How did Christaian get on?
Did he make it?

A

 

He did indeed.

359 IIRC but he was having inlet troubles - collapsing under the huge vacuum of that special turbo

So he only saw about 1 bar boost

What could it have been at the 1.8 it's dialled for

what's the special turbo?.....

 

Something custom - He wouldn't let on.

 

Nice one Rich, fab day once again

Filled up with ONLY Optimax on the way home and dropped the boost back down to 1.5bar.... going like a rocket again, just goes to show don`t it, if it aint broke, dont try to fix it!

Ditto Harvey, was good to meet up with old and new faces alike, even if you dont run, these events are certainly not to be missed!

Rich.

P.S. Anyone want to buy some cheap octane booster??

 

<something custom>

what kinda torque figure did it kick out?

A

 

Wouldn't have been a Samco hose that collapsed under presuure would it?

A

 

Steve McC

How did you get on?

Did the water injection help you any?

A

 

360 Top of the day for steve.

 

Well done.

Sounds like most folks were happy bunnies then!!!

My names down for the next.

You hearing me Rich??

A

 

Hi everyone!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comments.
I'm gonna be organising another very soon, probably aiming for October and the colder weather

Well done everyone also, we got some impressive figures today especially Christian's 359bhp and 323lbsft at 1.0 bar!!!!
What a car! What impressed me most about it was the fact that it seemed strong as low as 2000 rpm.

Alan, you are top of the list for the next one m8

Full results and piccies later today.

Cheers

Rich

Also impressive was Simon's 277bhp from a standard STi7. Well done.

And I must mention my bro who got 245bhp from a decat and filter but due to a problem with his boost controller on the day was only maxing at 0.7 bar. A few tweaks back home and he's holding 1.1 so, his figures would probably have been much better.

 

Alan

Water Injection not yet completed, so I got the 360bhp on Bobs mapping ability! - must say its a lot more powerful than the last run - but you can ask Bob or mail me on what he's done.

Dont feel that the WI will increase the power - more make it safer and give a bit more oomph lower down - was running at about 1.25bar of boost in 4th gear....

Was quite a bit of competition - RichiW decided to increase boost levels and have another go - 355bhp second timne round - better luck next time!,although I suspect that if I'd have got only 342bhp he would not have bothered

Noticed a problem with my aps front mount pipes - Harvey had wrapped his - and was showing low temps - my temps were quite high on the rollers - suspect this wont be so much of a problem as it gets cooler

 

Good day Rich - you have a knack of organising!

 

nice one steve. great figures.

not taking the pi55 here and I know you will think I am, but when you went to well lane last time then took it down to pe, didnt the figure drop significantly?

with this in mind, can you please put up the relative before pe well lane figures and the pe figure on the same state of tune?

I thought the pe rollers read high, I am just wondering if the well lanes rollers read even higher.

it is nice to see you finally gettign what you wanted from the car power wise.

360 is an awesome result. what was the torque?

and has anyone else got figures for well lane and pe on the same car in the same state of tune?

 

Adam

I will take it along to PE soon. The car is not comparable at all to the PE day

New Clutch - to replace slipping one
New up-pipe - to replace damaged one
New Actuator for the turbo and adjusted to 0.8 bar
New Downpipe, new mid and rear exhaust section
Uprated fuel pump
Several remaps

As far as the numbers go I suspect that the Well Lane BHP numbers to be 15bhp more than PE in normal circumstances - but we'll see!

I did have a slipping clutch at PE - dont care what anyone thinks -and no its not an excuse...

Torque was 299 - This was not working properly (they reckoned) although I dont think it would have been hugely out!

I got 335lbs last time, which as you would expect is ridiculously high!

I reckon if I wrapped the pipes (the aps ones) and took it back to PS I'd get a higher number than last time - 330bhp - will see what I can achieve at PE at some point

Whens the next RR day at PE?

 

Why do you want to wrap the pipes? and which ones, with what material?

A

 

Cheers Steve

Odd though......

I run water injection which sprays inside the intake pipe to the throttle body ( about a foot and a half in distance before TB)and when activated the pipe is bl**dy freezin' , so don't see why the pipe should be lagged.

Where have you fitted the nozzle(s), do you use water inj for cooling and / or det control?

A

 

LOL @ "RichiW decided to increase boost levels and have another go - 355bhp second timne round - better luck next time!,although I suspect that if I'd have got only 342bhp he would not have bothered"

hehe.... now what makes you think that??

Rich

 

LOL Nice one Richie.

 

Cheers Rich for another well sorted day, look foward to the next one.

great day - we both enjoyed ourselves
