well our silencer has not turned up, and its booked on the rollers for sat, so looks like we might have to bodge a 3" box on there for the mapping, so fingers crossed it all goes well, we will get some photo,s and vids up once its done..

fucking good going for a old t38 if you ask me, cheers lads, a few vids here, sorting graphs out at mo, we lowered the power back down to about 370/370 for track its to much to ask of the engine to take the hard time we are going to be chucking at it, plus we maxed the injectors out at 400,

some other pics of the day, was a long day, get there, finish wiring, tracking, camber, caster, start up, run engine in, new oil filter and oil, start mapping, boost controler was creeping so had to fuck that off, and just up the spring rate in the wastegate, left it running 1.48 bar, solid line, kept rev limit at 6800, still making power up to the red light,



this was a early run






now lets book some track time

thanks mate, think it better stay as it is for a while untill we use it, we know the engine would take more, but dont want to push our luck with the oil pump, maybe dry sump and more power as and when we need it.

hey nevsrevs im after abit of advise from you (the one bit of a car i dont like to touch) how do you fit a brake bias valve? as im fitting my setup off my 1.8 onto my track shell and i had problems with the rear discs locking up then and on my track shell it has a 1.6 setup so its going to be even worse how do you fit it???

we made are brake lines from scratch mate, so it all depends on how far you want to go down that route, either that or you fit two bias valves going to each rear wheel, 1st off tell me how many outlets you got coming out your m/c, as we have removed our abs.

Well id think the most id want to go is just fitting new rear lines (i really don't like doing work on brakes), I think ive only got 4 outlets as my m/c is a non abs one (i know theres alot less brake lines than on my 1.8).

ill get some pictures this weekend as im fitting the 300mm front and 280mm disc and better suspension then..

why so big on the rears mate? we are just running the small discs and they still lock up if you let them, if you get a abs m/c with three outlets then you can go, two to the front and 1 to the rear with a bias valve before the tee.
