New Simtek

[deani_age]

Thanks to JGM who fitted a new SIMTEK at SRR today.

Did a couple of Power Runs on old ECU to set the benchmark.

455 HP / 499 FtLb at 1.8 Bar

Top figures from today's power runs whilst Jolly Green Monster set up the new SIMTEK.

471 HP / 499 FtLb at 1.7 Bar

Need to reduce the plug gaps, fit an air intake temp sensor into the front mount intercooler pipework, and change the boost solenoid, currently peaking at 1.7 Bar and dropping straight off to 1.2 Bar.

Nice figures, did you also go for anti-lag & launch control

[tony_cousins]

Nice figures mate , will have to try harder to catch you up now

I was going to have anti-lag but changed my mind today. Not interested in launch control.

Just want reliable power and torque for the track.

Need to sort out the issues that prevented a flat out power run, so I suppose I should be happy that there is still a bit more to come.

So 500 bhp is on the cards then Will be fun in the wet

500 HP along with 500+ LbFt is possible. Have to wait and see what happens when the plugs / solenoid etc... are put right.

Took Simon out for a road test afterwards (in the wet).

No concerns with Power or Torque, just need bigger brakes so that I can stop.

I'm sure I saw a look of panic on Simon's face.

I don't do Panic..

first of 3 Simteks done today.. and sorry Dean the last one did 500/500

Simon

he should haqve anti lag even as a toy its so fun wish i had bought a simtek now

Simon

It must have been me that had the look of panic then, that mirror can be so deceptive.

500/500? I'm sure that I must be able to think up an excuse from somewhere as to why my figures are lower.

Atmospheric Pressure?

Dodgy Plugs?

Come on Simon, help me out here.

plugs and boost controller the issue.. that boost control knob needs changing"!"

OK! You've convinced me.

"that boost control knob needs changing" Please confirm to what? and considered it ordered.

lol.. to get 500/500 anyway.. but at least it is nice and safe boost wise as is..
