The car is very strong Adie, we've now finished all of the full throttle work and the last run measured exactly 350bhp @ the hubs. So assuming a transimission loss of 20% that equates to 420bhp flywheel with 372ft/lb's of torque, very impressive indeed, well done :)

We've spent most of this afternoon improving and flatterning the torque curve in order to make the car as drivable as possable in the real world, the power delivery is still quite peaky as you might expect when using a turbo of this size but still producing well over 140bhp off boost will make this car pretty driver friendly.

Cheers mate. As for name yeah, pain in the arse :lol:

Also the pipercross induction has also been removed. Its was mapped with out and when reinstalled was found it lost 280bhp because the air feed pipe was sqaushed.

Nice one Ad about time you had your car up and running :D ...........not bad power out put for a 1G-FE :winky: lets hope it lasts alot longer this time. Than the last time.......you got it back!

How's the gearbox takeing that power, is it all ok.........@TDI how much more power do you think the IS box can take? what did it fill like when you was mapping it?

Posted
The car is no longer up and running at the moment :crybaby:

Man you dont have much luck do you mate...........whats up now?

Not sure yet..

After 2 small fires in the engine bay due to cables being too close to the new down pipe and alot of unforseen heating issues from the work I had carried out by the other garage just before Christmas. The cables were moved and properly insulated by TDI before the mapping was carried out.

Figures were posted above which made it all worth while and everything was hunky dory...

Untill..

The car broke down whilst on the road test yesterday. Coolant everywhere and 5 broken spark plugs.. The head is being taken off to see what's happened..

I think that engine has been apart more times than a ho's legs. :yawn:
