paul555sti Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I saw you post over on scoobynet. I cant really help with the power figures, is Andy still selling these. I thought they were no longer listed on his site. Link to comment
murtayamartin Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 he still offers them when i phoned him a while ago,hopefully getting steve simpson simtek co-creator to map it so in a light car with fmic i really dont want much lag hence 18g vs20g martin Link to comment

RA Dunk Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 400 is do able with methanol on the 20G, ive heard of people getting over 400 on an 18G as well but still remain to be convinced if the figures are genuine or not, i take it its the 2.1 you have ordered from Alan? this should help the 20G spool better at least, i think coulty from here runs a 2.1 with a 20G and IIRC he`s hitting full boost by 3100 RPM although im not 100% Link to comment
paul555sti Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Martin / Dunk what clutches are you guys going to be using ? Link to comment
RA Dunk Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Martin / Dunk what clutches are you guys going to be using ? mine already has an uprated clutch AFAIK , dunno WTF its is though was already in the car when i bought it, never had any slip with it on the 20G so far though so its holding out ok Link to comment
jasonb Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 mine already has an uprated clutch AFAIK , dunno WTF its is though was already in the car when i bought it, never had any slip with it on the 20G so far though so its holding out ok Dunk i asked alan at engine tuner what clutches i should go for and he said EXEDY Hyper Twin cerametallic clutch (£1300) so thats what im going for, alot of pennies but peace of mind it shouldnt slip!!

jasonb Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 yea but your aiming for mahoosive BHP levels are you? i`ll be sticking with the trusty old 20G for now at least Ah i thought you were changing your turbo aswell, he advised me to go with that cos there rated for up to 500 ft lb. I will be keeping the 20g for a few months as the GT35-40 and exhaust kit comes to about 2.5k , need to save up more cash for that but at least it means my gearbox and clutch are good for when i go for it! When your car going to be back on the road dunk? Link to comment

scoobymark Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 i have a afp 20g, with a few other tweeks incl; gruppe s headers and up pipe, standard top mount. made 405bhp on 10% meths and NF mix Now on straight V-power and running about 380bhp as far as spool, i make 1.5 bar of boost at 3400rpm I ran a 18g before the 20g, the 20g has much more mid range punch / pulls all the way to you need to change gear, always thought the 18g ran out of puff Link to comment
shibby! Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I also got a 20g but its on a 2.5 Make full boost REALLY early, im pretty sure its under 3k, and will hold all day long. No idea about 18g. Link to comment

murtayamartin Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) andy has emailed me saying 20g should have minimal lag and not really different to 18g except more power so will have re think-i need to get the car made first lol martin Edited May 13, 2009 by murtayamartin Link to comment
