Ok Ok.... asked for that.... seriously, I was goning to leave the car with him and let him play, but I've now got the day off and was going to see if I could hang about and see the magic

I haven't done anything major to the engine so not expecting 340bhp but what type of adjustments to the "conductor" can he carry out?

I will obviously speak to the man... but was curious?

 

Depends what your turbo and fueling ancillaries etc will allow mate. Without knowing a spec its hard to say.

Personally id not hang around for a few reasons.

A) It takes bloody ages to **** about with maps etc.
B) Zak likes to map alone most of the time
C) If youre there whilst the magic goes on you see the car take shape and dont get an accurate before and after sensation. I know it sounds daft but trust me its ALOT more noticable when you drive in and drive out.

Mainly the reason why my cars never fast enough

 

I'll drop it off then

Re spec....

Last time on rollers it made 241BHP which (allowing for RR!!!) is quite high for a UK turbo only running a Green Air filter and a H&S BB?

Now running full decat (2.5), Dawes set at 1 bar, Alloy Intercooler Y-pipe replacing plastic item, Sytec Fuel Regulator at std pressure, Walbro 255 Fuel Pump and Apexi Power FC ecu to be fitted?

BUT still running TD04 AND std grey injectors......

Fingers crossed for 280? or am i dreaming?

 

Id say a more realistic 270 from a TD04 myself.. wait and see

By the way,,, i call dyno's... dreamo's for a reason lol

 

Anyone have a TD05 frt entry!!!!!!!

I know what you mean BTW re. dreamos still got to do it !!!

 

Just add the APEXi and see how you get on..

Im still not convinced you wont swap to a bug sti yet

 

Thanks for all your feedback and points of view, however, i had it done in the end, PPP now fitted. I have to say i am very pleased with it. It sounds great and the car is definately alive now. I appriciate i can get a lot more done with it, but that will come once the warranty has expired.

Next stop i think is Prodrive springs. Anyone had this done and know of a ball park figure including fitting / alignment etc.

Heres just a subtle hint thats its been PPPd !!
