hoping to see around 400bhp, the last engine made 363bhp 382ft lbs @ 16psi though the figures are questionable (in reality it was probably a 330-340bhp) but for the time it lasted it was flying! this all in a nova that weighs around 780kg

i will be mapping it myself this time

that was the idea the shell i got from an old lady only covered just under 11k miles from new paint work is original, just painted underneath and stripped it and put a big engine and 6spd in it

i was gonna get jdm to do mine(mbe/jenvey,N/A) as heard good things BUT not now i wont be . i done bit of research too and all feedback was good,it just shows you.
so who would be recommended to map mbe ...

can someone answer this please i'v noticed there is still values at 0% throttle shouldn't these be 0 at any rev's over tickover speed regarding the fuel i no the newer cars cut fuel off when off the throttle can this also be done through mapping slightly older cars too

lot of power for a small car

where in south wales dude?

also is the weight a "guesstimate"? as 780, is light, and i'm finding it hard to get my 205 to 800kgs

SiZT

Yes alot of modern cars do, do that and you can put it into any aftermarket management. The reason it's still fuelling on the 0% load sites is to cool the pistons/bore etc...

already asked chip, he said need to be road legal,which this aint lol

GaryHurn

from newport fella, it was weighed with 1/2 tank of fuel at just over 790 i have the figures here some where i'll dig it out!

GaryHurn

iTrader: (1)

imo its worth travelling to wallace as they do have a very very good name!

Chip

Agreed on Wallace, known Russ for years and he is definately one of the good guys.

GaryHurn

it nows runs again as you can see cold start is pretty much bang on just mot and run the motor in before april 8th

cool the pistons and bore by dumping fuel in and setting fire to it?

surely no fuel at all would cool alot more effectively?

i`ll have to remember this, the next time im hot at work instead of opening a window to let some fresh cool air in, i`ll pour some fuel on my head and set fire to myself to cool down

foreigneRS

putting fuel in and not burning it would provide a lot of evaporative cooling effect, but it wouldn't do you catalytic converter and lambda sensor much good amongst other things

which leads to a fucked engine

Does that car have a chargecooler and an intercooler? If so, why?

GaryHurn

iTrader: (1)

no it just has a chargecooler

the two large rads on the front is an engine rad behind and in front with fans attached is the chargecooler pre rad!!!! its fed via a davies craig 110l/h water pump,

Lilt Laydeeez

The speed many people seem to accept their car can be mapped in is crazy, so many clowns claiming they can map, and tuners taking literally 2 hours to map a car.
What a joke, you cant get fook all done in that time.

It hasnt, but if it had, why not? Most intercoolers and most chargecoolers dont do the perfect job on their own, but sometimes together, they can.

Depends on the car, and the equipment available, if you have a very good base map to work from, and its an N/A car and you have something like a dyno dynamics rolling road that allows you to speed limit the rollers its perfectly possible to visit every single cell on the map in 2 hours.
Generally though I agree with you totally, and it takes manufacturers tens of thousands of hours to get right, mapped in all climates and with every compensation table done to the n'th degree etc.
Most "mapped" cars are actually pretty vague in all but the expected conditions.
My clio is a perfect example, drop the outside temp to -30 and ive no idea if it would even start, as I havent had the chance to test it doing so, so the values I have entered for a -30 degree cold start are literally just an educated guess!

dropped this off for mapping will collect next week will report back once collected, i here its holding 25-26psi

yes dave young @ mech motorsport is mapping it this time, he has done a few cars for friends and all have performed brilliantly fingers crossed when i collect tuesday or wednesday everything is ok
