Cheers guys :thumb:

So in between the bodywork after some digging, turns out the wastegates were piped incorrectly. As one was opening the other was closing so not exactly working efficiently :brickwall

Incorrect piping

Attachment 34362

Correctly piped (thanks to Richard Henry Motorsport :cool: )

Attachment 34363

Glad you got the piping sorted Banny

Looking for a bit more BOOST then mate :)

Me too Gussy

Just a touch ;)

Today was mapping day with Andrew Carr at TEG Sport, set off at 7 am to arrive at 9am but alas the M62 was up to it usual traffic laden shennanigans :brickwall

Have to say TEG Sport's facilites are bang on and would recommend them no problem :thumb:

All strapped up and Andrew has a little play with v power map @1.4 bar and we end up with a nice easy run.

Attachment 34295

As I only wanted low boost and high boost, Andrew had a little play with the boost setting should I decide I want more in future. 1.6 bar gave 499, 1.8 bar gave 524 and 2 bar finished at 541.

Quick drain off the tank and filled with a 20% meth mix which I had premixed in a 25 litres drum, so secretly I was hoping for 580bhp. Quick run at 1.4 bar yielded 514bhp, this made me hopeful for 580, next run at 2 bar only 560bhp which I did feel little down about but Andrew adjusted the boost and next run we hit 579.9 :D

I thought ok I am happy with the but Andrew wanted to refine the map, I had found a comfy spot and let him crack on, so any more power now was a bonus in my eyes. Little more boost and boom 595! so close to 600 that I could taste it, hell lets give it 2.2 bar and we cracked 600bhp :notworthy

Massive thanks to Andrew Carr, Andy and the lads at Richard Henry and Mikee Singh for the advice along the way. With the gates piped correctly we only needed 54% wastegate duty to hit target boost.

WOW.Good work.

Cracking result. Gotta be happy with that! Can you feel a difference in delivery on the road?

Cheers :)

The 3 main things I noticed are the pull to the limiter is smoother, the boost recovery after a gearchange is pretty much instant now and spool is smoother :thumb:

Sounds like a massive improvement to how it drives overall then. That's gotta be some fun now! :thumb:

As the whole car sounds and looks properly sorted now I'll look out for the for sale thread in 2 weeks time? :D

Wow 600bhp!! Thanks for sharing your experience banny very reassuring for people like me who have never used teg I can't wait to get mine sorted nice one:thumb:

It's more Andrew Carr you are using, not so much Teg, just thier dyno

Go on banny lad what a result love see few vids what it's like on boost

There is a few vids on my youtube, this is one I got on the dyno yesterday


Yep feels like the car it should have always been finally :D

:lol1: you know me too well but I'm thinking of doing some rwyb and see if I can hit a 10 in this car too before I move it on. After my previous listing most likely wont be listed for sale on here though

Andrew arranged it all but TEG is in a really nice location and really relaxed atmosphere but the countryside smell hits hard :freak3: :lol1:

Lol country side smell, haha, Banny you city slicker :p

I didnt notice it till Maz pointed it out :lol1:

Looking great Banny, I'm jealous. Looks like a monster.

Keep hold of this one. It's special!

Some noise off that thing bud. Deffo a keeper

Cheers gentlemen, I didnt think I would surpass my old car with this one but as an all rounder this one defo edges it. 3rd gear (hawk gearing) 3k rpm and she is spooling ready to go!

Niceish weather so gave it a quick clean :cool:

Beast you enjoying it banny

What kind of boost are we talking at 3k?

I was astounded to be pulling 0.5-0.7bar by 3k on mine. It's a hoot to drive....

Making roughly 0.4/0.5bar at that point J :)

:lol1: brutal.

Cheers, Mr E63 got to find out the same ;)

Just been cleaning it recently :cool:

Very nice banny what's it like on the road

Its epic on the road, perfectly docile up to 3k rpm and thats when the madness begins :D

Do you bait unsuspecting 'victims' and then stomp on the loud pedal. For **** and giggles, like.

Would be rude not to, did it to an M4 a few days ago. The look on his face was priceless :lol1:

I know that feeling.... :luxhello:

LOOKING GOOD banny:cool:.SJ.
