At the dyno now with Flea and I have done 400bhp, but what is the final figure going to be?

Sounds like he's had a nice easy day with yours if it's dyno'd by 3?

Blind guess, 419...

1.5 bar tailing off to 1.2 bar, but that is due to fuelling issues

You should get it mapped properly, rather than by some geezer in Bristol. laugh

Although to be contentious, it did make 442bhp & 366lbs/ft, but we had to back it off at the top end a little.

Brutal car though, absolutely banzai top end and there is more to give with a little more fuel smile

Nice! You must be chuffed.

What turbo?
When do you get full boost?

Well, back home now and seriously impressed with Leighton has done with the car. Fuel consumption is massively improved, so much so, that I did a quarter of a tank from the RR to home (105 miles) including some boosting up to 120kmh, being stuck in traffic and crusing at 85mph, but jesus titty cloud9 christ, the rate the speed builds at is phenomenal. Rev limit has been set at 7800rpm and I'm a little scared to take it there, done about 7500rpm now.

Anyway, the graphs. Taken from my phone, but will scan them in on Monday :

Cracking results and kudos for getting where you are today. The last time I saw the car was during a spirited drive at a Coupe meet a good number of years ago, when your engine let go and dumped a nice cloud of oil over mine whilst trying to keep up with you :-)


Coupe now sold!

about time beggers !

Very good curve for a humble 4 potter.

Just shows it can still mix with the 5 pot freak.

Good work to yourself & of course Leighton.

Now please look after this engine ! cool

Trappy, the traces are 2 different boost runs. The blue was 1.5bar sustained, whereas the red is 1.5bar tailing off to 1.3bar
