Get some bigger injectors in there as soon as possible!
Cheers Chip, what would be a good injector upgrade?
I've turned the boost down for now, and was only going to run that for the RR session to see what I made maxed out! They were up at 106% until I noticed!!

Not knockin' it as i have a lot of time for the graft you put in. I just can't see how a 230-240bhp Cabby is hitting a genuine 160mph.
The rev counter could be telling porkie pies.
Just from the cars we have timed and my own RST experiences, that seems a hell of a lot. Fair play if you have mate, but i wouldnt take the gearbox calculator and your rev count as gospel. Keep it up though man!

you have done some serious work, so get the gearbox done and enjoy
what gearbox did you actually have karlos??
I know what you guys are saying it does seem fast, but the gear/speed calcuator is not theory it's based on physical meassurements/fatcs... so how can it be wrong?!
Obvioulsy I'm not using the RST rev counter!
LMAO
I'm looking at the reading on my laptop from the ECU as i'm mapping!
TBH i'm not really interested in top speed runs or aything like that, it's just a fast road car, I was just pleased with the results thats all, and as I said above, 6000rpm in 5th is a good speed whatever my gear ratio's are.
