wilky Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Hello Everyone,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Well, Uncle Andrew mapped my car on Tuesday and I am lost for words. Its frightening. Of course im going to say that, and of course im going to bum it up, but it really is, coupled with the Prodrive S2 gearbox and the turbo from Owen developments its pulling like a train. Greersport built the engine to WRC spec along with the Gearbox. Steve and Stuart Whitson made the reverse manifold and the manifold spacers. Not wanting to offend some members who don’t seem to like people talking about whats been done to their car and how proud they are, if you want to hear the story I would happily post a thread as to what has gone on over the past 11 months. If you don’t want to hear it then I wont bother. We only mapped to 1.6bar, we thought a coilpack was away but it turned out to be too big a plug gap. We are going all the way at the end of the month. If you want to hear the story let me know. Callum
st3ph3n Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I would like to hear the story in painstaking detail. As someone with an inquisitive mind and a penchant for a good engineering story.
G.T. Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 well after hearing it on wednesday night callum id have to say i want to hear it. its an amazing car and you should only be too happy to bum it up to the max[]
andy Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I'd like to hear it. I am totally mechanically useless and these stories interest me.
scoobykev Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 yes i would like to hear the full story, surely thats the point of the forum, to share views and opinions. just leave out the bits about the goats, so as not to offend anyone
