J0nah Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Well, the day finally arrived. Got to CAS motorsport on the Wirral to find Andy Mcgilly (UKSCOOB) already having his new uprated fuel pump being fitted. Hung around for a bit, egg butty and a coffee, and then Andy Forrest turned up. Introductions all round. Then down to the nitty gritty. Who first? MEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!! So, off Mr Forrest goes to get his overalls on, his laptop and his other box of magical tricks. It was like being on my first driving lesson! But anyway did a few runs up and down the motorway only to go back to CAS with a boost issue. (Which we new about anyway) New resister fitted. Back to the motorway and down to the serious issue of tweaking. And what a difference. Mid range now runs at about 1.3 boost, tailing off. Mid range was really the problem too, now there is just now "holding back" at all. I also have two boost settings now at the flick of my heated rear window button!!!!! Wicked. The difference is unbelievable, and couldn't have been done by a more freindly, down to earth person than Andy Forrest. He really is the man. Anyway, I came away from CAS at six this evening, and UKSCOOB was still out there somewhere mapping his. I'm sure his grin will be as big as mine. Andy[Y]

J0nah Posted October 10, 2006 Author Posted October 10, 2006 Well before today, with the boost problems, it was running 279bhp / 231 lbft, so I can't wait to see what the torque is reading now. scooby legend are the right words too! Cheers Cal

craig mac Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 If Carlsberg made tuners They would probably have made Andy Forrest Probably the best tuner in the world [] Boll0x to that, he is without doubt, the one and only man i would let map my car, And he is also the only man i would recommend. First Class geezer too, Cant wait to go bee him again in the near future[] CraiG
