Just spilt my coffee 'now an option' MAD have been producing first class cars for a few years now. His 300bhp conversion is new to me though, cant you get that with an elastic band & a paper clip .
If you want reliability try detuning to about 120bhp & not using it but it will still fall apart, its a 20+ year old Ford for heavens sake.

Once he speaks to a decent company he will soon understand a well tuned YB can be both reliable and quick.

Yous should all count yourselfs lucky ! Yous have SCS ,Reyland , MSD , MAD , NMS , Turbosystems , jano oddkidd, Field motorsport , Danny @ ep (joke) Who do we have up in scotland ? FUCKING AVA we have to travel 4 + hours in a old cossie to be near msd or , tony turbosystems with the risk of breakdown on the way there or home ! only bad thing about MAD is rod is a tube ! he gets right on my fucking moobs at a seriously alarming rate !
Yeah that amazed me when I got up here.
I stay in Aberdeen and in asda carpark alone tonight I've seen a mint escos,Renault 5GT turbo,loads of evo's,scoobies pimped up motors etc.,you'd think there would be a huge market.
Probably too many rich oil types driving their lambos and ferraris who just swap them for new ones when they want more power!
As for the rod statement that's pretty bang on,not sure what his problem is lately but he seems to slate anyone who wants to do what he "wrote" a book about,I.e tune up a "normal" car to get better performance out of it.
Ok he went a fair bit further than most with his.
Did you know it did over 200mph?
I think it's been mentioned once or twice.

Now im more confused than scooby doo....So when a cars mapped on the rollers it has to be tweaked on the road...So...A live mapping session on the road in the first place is surly about better drive ability as well as the power right..?....
#53
Doing on a RR confirms your power so you know you are in the ball park of where it should be,
When I live map on the road the car is not adjusted when doing a power run unless they is something a miss.

Matt. It's easier to do the bulk of the mapping on a dyno but it should always be road tested after to check it's usability on the road and any final adjustments can be made to the map.
#55
Yes i get that bit Mark....But i allways thought the idea of a proper live mapped car was that the map on the car got changed and adjusted under real condition`s in real time...like wind..drag downforce and other things and the map adjusted to suit the car and to get the best drive abillity from that...So my qestion is can you get the same drive abilty and smoothness on the rollers as you can on road/track.
really intesresting this because ive only ever had my cars set up on the road.
sorry for all the Q`s....Cheers Mat.

I have a RR next door to me so I can check any car very easily and I didnt need to spend the 60k to buy it.

With experiance and a simple engine like a YB once you have done the hard work doing the main set up work and not changing the spec to some thing diff, Then 99% of the time you wont need the RR and to make it better by using a RR is slim,

Thanks mark...Now thats a big saving mate...So what would be better for me then when i choose to have my cosworth mapped...A tuner with rollers or still stick with on the road...Whats best.?

Ran once or twice yes but if you look at his posts other than his own thread he just seems to litter everyone elses threads with utter garbage because nobody is worthy of being a 3ft know it all like him he can fuck right off as far as im concerned !

tongue in cheek mate.....
fuck me if you speed in oz you get locked up.......so strict over here its insane....
And if you speed people look at you as if you did kill someone....
End of the day RR is good for base mapping but doesn't mimic real world scenarios unless you have an f1 style wind tunnel LOL

All i can suggest is save uo a bit of money cause where ever it goea to get done it might need more paets to get the engine to run right.
I heard of loads of people getting there cars mapded and then saying how better there cars were after.
Well i got my cossie done a few weeks back now and its like a different car.Its quick and 100% reliable.

stop bullshitting people just because u cannot or will not afford a dyno !
martin is 100% right saying its dangerous and you as a "professional" shouldnt be telling people its ok.....

yes, fair enough mate but he is nothing like that in person - he is rather pleasant to be honest. Maybe its the MAD keyboard warrior
