Looking forward to seeing the end result bud

Me to mate din drive home this weekend!

Found out today I need a new laptop to run data logs etc off my syvecs. Currently have a apple Mac and it will not support it ��

Bet you can't wait for this weekend! :)

Get yourself down to currys asap lol

i know mate hopefully get there saturday to grab it.

i can honestly say i know absolutely nothing about lap tops and may have to wait as still have to pay for map and run in

You're going to be like a kid at Christmas! Looking forward to the next few updates :D

Rite guys,

The mapping was finished off on the car today. The car made 400/445 at 1.4 bar but wouldn't make anything else.. should run 1.7 all day long no problems so ahead jase went looking fir obvious things, boost leaks etc.. then I got hold of Simon from chevron, turns out my turbo is best suited to a 2.0 or 2.1 engine. Not a 2.35 he has told me that the exhaust housing in the turbo is to small so that's why on a 2.35 it won't make the power and on a 71 mm wheel when it would be better on a 73mm wheel. Car km told spools crazy! Looking forward to picking it up tomorrow. Not the power I wanted but hey.. its fixed and I can look later in the year of adding a bigger turbo.

Ryan

You'll forget about the numbers once your driving it mate, good luck hope everything goes to plan.

Yeah mate can't wait to feel the spool :luxhello:

Glad u got it bk, hopefully badly luck behind u, enjoy

Still awesome figure enjoy

Thanks for all the nice comments lads.

Plans for it over next few weeks is get the race tech dash properly programmed have no speedo, fuel gauge or gauges atm.
And get a full Geo set up done with corner weighting

At least you've got an extremely reliable 400bhp! And as you say, a lot more potential to be unlocked!

Matt.

Picked the car up this morning and fell back in love with the car after 10 minutes of driving.. absolutely love it again. Not stupid fast but I don't care at this moment just happy to have it back. Met my best mate with his JDM blob soon as I got back

That other blob looks fantastic! Does the owner have a 'build' thread on here for it?

Matt.

Here's the dyno graph

Congratulations mate. Glad it's finally back and working, what a journey! Looks the nuts too now. Love that bonnet! Needs a front splitter IMO to finish it off. Top job!


Now enjoy it! :)

Yeah mate 100% needs a splitter want a time attack style on on it.

:luvlove::luvlove::luvlove: OH HOW I REGRET BUYING MY BLITZ LAST WEEK

The sound is unreal but need to get it tested to see if I'm allowed on track with it. If not will be going up for sale :cry:

Not really much to update. I have been going out in the car when I get chance and enjoying it. Been that busy at work not had much chance.. but the big plan next is rotated EFR

Do you have more comment on tomei exhaust? Ive just bought one too. Wondered how it was? I will be running it with a sard down pipe with equal headers.

Sounds amazing have it with rcm headers and up pipe and Miltek decat down pipe very loud but love it
