Default Had my Dad's car on the rollers Yesterday.

The RSOC Lancs group had a rolling road day at Awesome GTi yesterday. The car was booked to go on the rollers and it was expected to have been finished but due to unforseen problems that arrose during mapping, the car couldn't be finished.

The car is currently running 25 psi boost (held), a conservative ignition curve and very safe fueling (around 9:1). When it's finished, it will be around 35 psi on boost (held).

Spec is as follows.

GT30,
BD14's,
NMS big port head,
7.4:1 compression ratio,
83lb injectors,
Modified plenum with spacer,
2wd exhaust manifold,
Radtec intercooler,
3" Tube Torque (very anti social) exhaust,
Rev limit set to 8250 rpm.

The figures are wheel figures and not flywheel and the run was done in 4th.



And a small video.

That was one of the runs. It ran 3 times but the third run didn't record for some reason.

I'll get some of the engine bay. It's not a total mess. It's just functional rather than bufty (or even clean).

Yes it did... but all you need to aim for is a 14.4 qtr as your small turbo will never make more horse power than shells current spec.
