on the road it is goin really well,done 234 last time so the 20+ extra made has made big difference,the best thing of all is the mtx box,what a massive difference in grip with the equal length shafts,its like different car,and thats the box without slipper,i would defo recomend anybody to go mtx route,
so overall,am happy,and once again thanks to alan and co at ava,top job as ever,was worth the wait.

You've been keeping Alan busy!
You are right, he seems a top bloke, can't wait to see what he can do with mine, did you see it there looking sorry for itself?

Its on of my friends cars that AVA built.
2.1 ZVH with steel bottom end/big valve head, UT T38 and AVA management.
made 272ATW in 4th gear

Red 2.0 ZVH Arrows Rods JE pistons 7.1:1 compresion ratio with T38 and running AVA management. MEF Coilovers. etc etc

wuls will prob feel faster than Davies due to the fact that Davie had a T38.

Excuse my ignorance. What car is this? Is it scottish? Any pics?

From what i was told yours is getting stripped then mine is getting built in the next couple of weeks.

There is a V6 Mondy that is seriously testing my eardrums everytime I go there!

That mondy is a 2litre Ztec on Jenvys.
It made 177 ATW after Alan mapped its omex

I had a copy of Davies graph up until a photobucket clearout a few weeks ago...wish id kept it now ive already studied it,the maps are very very similar,mines makes power faster though,and power peaks earlier,more or less same boost though.

Amazing car just got to love s1
must admit i do fancy one again but a 3dr is a dream im yet to fulfil
If i ever did get another s1 i would go for that power and possibbly 4wd if money permits

What's all this bollocks running up in different gears? How are u supposed to get a consistent reading? If the gear is effecting the power readout, then so will the ratio. So an S1 with same engine will read higher than S2, which will read higher than a cossie. Suddenly flywheel figures don't look so bad

as said it would make more power in 3rd gear as most other rr's run in

The ideal gear for AVA is 3rd but my car and often big power FWD cars cant get enough grip to give accurate figs.
To answer your question, yes if my car could be ran in 3rd it would prob make 20 bhp ATW more than it does just now and yes cars with short final drives I.E race cars tend to make more power than ones with normal boxes.
I believe this is better than fly figs as this is actually true BRAKED horsepower made on that run and involves no calculations or computer wizardry to invent a flywheel fig.

PassionFord Post Whore!!
Before i knew DD RR used 3rd gear, i always believed 4th (usually Direct) was the best gear to run for true figures.
But i still believe if the RR is loading correctly it should make the same power in any gear? as long as full traction is achieved.
But then again being in a lower gear will help temps.
