braveheart Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Thanks for the kind comments lads appreciated very much, would need to find dates Chris for the ring that would be amazing experience, my ears are still ringing from yesterday lol let me you your thoughts when you were thinking of going ?? And could open a new post the more the merrior. Cheers for the pics Chris your car was looking good with your new wheels on ;-) Link to comment
C_WRX Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Nuts Chris, totally nuts. Must feel awesome to hit the loud pedal (although by those pics maybe not to those standing near by!). Good news that it is running better, and encouraging (if that's the right word ) that there is still more to be had from it. Link to comment
soundie Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 your car was looking good with your new wheels on ;-) sure is bud! Spot ON! Cheers again for them - they have gone to a very appreciative home Ring-wise I was thinking of heading there pretty soon, I'm not sure how many people would want to come in November, its just Ideal for me with work. What are costs like to take a trailer on a ferry vs. paying for fuel and drivin it there(+risk of breaking something) I'm just driving mine likes. A pax lap on the Ring in the WL i think would be well up there on the list of top ten terrifying experiences, along with volcano bungeeing and lion juggling. Link to comment

Phil MC Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Looks a lot better than before Chris. Would be interesting to see how it would go around some of the arger tracks ala T/A??? Looks great so far . Link to comment
wilky Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Excellent news Chris, the graphs show how nicely it all comes together as well. Very best of luck, and hope to meet up with you some day. Callum Link to comment
TrackScotland Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Hope its got some BIG brakes!!! lol It looked pretty damn quick when I saw it on track in the summer (Day before TA @ Knockhill). Whats the changes from then, just more boost or a new build? Link to comment
braveheart Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) Cheers phill yes the cars running so diffrent yes T/A is looking not to bad for next year.. The set up on the car is so much better with Andy working some magic. The NOS system is installed and enabled but as its a dry system (and injectors are maxed) then we are currently only using it to spool the turbo quicker between gears, it shuts off progressively from 1.5 to 1.75bar and anything under 3000 and over 6000rpm as controlled by the ECU. It wasn't used on the dyno run would of been nice to see the graph with the Nos. Hi Wilky yea would be great to meet up mate, when you come back over to the I'm untill then stay safe bro. Adam ref your ? The answer to that one mate same engine just needed to fit the missing jigsaw parts that's all, the car was only running 1.65 then at 619/ 485 It's night and day now far more responsive and going how it should be at 1.95 641/600 and it does pull like a train now there is still a few missing jigsaw nits to have it to it's max that will happen next year..
