  1. Well today was the dreaded day of de-tunement as I was getting mapped back onto plain V-Power rather than the Scotimax mix I have been using for over a year now. The results were supprising to say the least as in Andy's estimations the car is pushing 360bhp and 350 lbs-ft of torque still with the VF35 running the V-Power so thats only a 10bhp and 15lbs-ft of torque loss. I am still getting 1 bar of boost at 2600rpm and full boost at 2800 rpm (in 6th gear) but the car does not feel just as sharp as it did before Still for sale (for the time being) Graeme
  2. because we dont have the benafit of a 2.5 Graeme
  3. well at least he didnt say dea o lai x3 (spelling not my strong point) Graeme
  4. and your car is still broken
  5. not sure about the dpo just yet, will need to see how the cash goes for now.
  6. We have been getting treated like crap for a while, our last pay deal was shocking 2.6% last year and 2.5% this year. I was up at college there doing my Mates/Masters there before Christmas and was called back early because of staffing difficulties so didnt get to finnish my course. I asked HR in December if I would be able to go back to college for 5 weeks starting 21st April and it took them over 6 weeks to ask the Marine super if I could go, and he said no! When I got to the ship, I found out I was brought back so another guy gould go off and start the same course as they pulled me off, I thought I was joining as 1/o/s (next rank up from where I was) as there was nobody else in the agency with the same experience as me as I have had 4 yrs in and sailed as 1/o/s a few times before but it turned out that they had tranfered a 2/o from the Jura who has only been in the agency since April last year, only just got his BFSO warrant and had never sailed as 1/o/s before. Anyways last trip I had to go away boarding in my own time to show this guy how to measure a net (bearing in mind that he is now sailing in a higher rank than me and getting paid more!). On top of that we got a new Captain join the vessel after the previous one resigned to go get more time off and more money, anyways the new Captain is an a***hole and was picking holes in everything you did so I resigned. I was just tired of being treated like crap Graeme
  7. Well seeing that nobody seems interested in my scooby and the only offer I had was 13K I am starting to think about just keeping the b*tch some other news is that I resigned from my job the other week so am jobless at the mo, but not for long!!! I am going to be a Clyde Marine comamndo for a few months doing temping work on different ships so with the extra income I may just be foced to pay the Scoob off!!!! the car is still going to see Andy on wed to be remapped back to just V Power incase someone does come along with some cash Grant, your liver still isnt safe yet!!!!! Anyways we shall see what happens Graeme

  14. So have we decided on the name for the new one yet? I still vote for "Japs Eye" Graeme
  15. they will just say, "Im sorry sir, we did not know that the road wus in a poor state, the last time we inspected that road it was fine", then they will go and change their records to "proove" that the road was fine the last time they inspected it. This id what happened to me when I smashed a wheel in a pothole Renfrewshire council, you gotta love them Graeme

Posts: 6,057 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #7 (permalink) This is one of the quickest original turbo'd cars I've mapped Even with a std fuel remap this would still make 350+bhp, from memory it was originally mapped for plain optimax and made around this figure. Production tolerances stacked up in this ones favour for sure Good luck with the sale. Andy Graeme Go on make me an offer
