kevin_baker Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Can't wait to see you fly at Alconbury, but when we go to the IOM you're gonna have to go at the back []
wrx-ian Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Quote Can't wait to see you fly at Alconbury,but when we go to the IOM you're gonna have to go at the back [] Don`t think Charlie being at the back will make that much difference think we`ll need a headstart. Looks like your going to have a great set up there Charlie, you`ll have to take me for a spin across the mountain in IOM[]

insane clown Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 i'm guessing...325bhp...maybe more but can't remember what one you have [:S]
kevin_baker Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Quote i'm guessing...325bhp...maybe more but can't remember what one you have [:S] Charlies P1 was pushing out 320+ before his mishap. I think he's hoping for 350ish

You must be well chuffed. Rob is going to be well jealous if you`ve got wastegate chatter.
WR1 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Okay, excuse my ignorance. What's wastegate chatter sound like then? I get a "whoosh" sound when changing gear, is that the same or is that the bov or dump valve or whatever the thing is. Sorry, only had standard scoobies before, not used to this modified lark [] SquirrelHead
Boro_Babe Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Pic of Charlie's engine[H] Charlie's car on the left Will leave him to spill the beans about the wastegate chatter[]
paul n Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 The whoosh changing gears is as you say the dump valve, wastegate chatter is best described as a chattering noise when the wastegate is opening and closing, no doubt someone will be along shortly to give a better explination[]
