Hi,

Again thank you for the nice comments..

Im lucky as i just use vans for work so this is for SD&P only :thumb:

Not sure on the weight, cant see it being much less than standard really due to the cage, there is a weigh bridge local to me so when i get time ill pop and get it weighed..:)

The torque is just brilliant, i've got an RX7 also and as you probably know you have to rev them quite hard to get them going but this just pulls like a train. :)

This was featured in one of the jap mags, at the time it was on standard internals and had been running over 400 bhp for about four or five years, without issue too.

Truly impressive! The spec has just got even better since.

You have a very nice car there mate :thumb:

Yeah that engine might still be running as it was only because the oil got sucked into the catch tank so took the bottom end...
Im going to pop for a remap (somewhere not decided yet) and see if it will do the 500bhp...:thumb:

Sounds like a plan, be great if it did :D

gavin876 16 March 2011 11:35 PM

it should do, well im not a tuner but id of thought it would touch 500bhp at 2 bar... Always wanted a 500bhp car so worth a shot :D

That's how it should be :thumb: ;)

Hi,

Just an update on how thngs are coming along.


Popped to power station yesterday so Fuzz could check over the car and see how its getting on...
Straight away on the rollers Fuzz said it was Detonating badly so I had to have a bit of a re-map/tune session.
Lost about 35bhp from the last power run but could be because I've been using BP97 fuel and not v-power.

Ill carry on with the mods im doing to it and keep filling her up with V-power then pop back for a re-tune and see what happens from there.

Ill be fitting a few things over the weekend so will keep the thread updated, :)

bioforger 14 April 2011 08:59 PM

Cool :thumb: must be weird for Fuzz working on his old car yet again :)

Terminator X 14 April 2011 10:16 PM
