Edzell is about another hour from crail really good venue nice quarter mile. As far as the engine goes full exhaust including cat by pass, apexi power fc blitz induction kit and blow off valve and blitz front mount intercooler for my first ever quarter mile run i posted 13.1 with the 19s and half a tank of petrol. When i go down next i will slap on the lightweight enkeis and run on fumes hoping to get into the 12s. I need to learn where the peak power is because before i was bouncing it off the rev limiter all the way down the quarter! What you got under the bonnet yonner?

Dude keep it half a tank of fuel as when you acclerate the fuel swirls around the tank and will too little in you may starve the engine of fuel if its not flowing correctly!!!:(

They are still the standard sequential set up so am i right in saying the max you can get is 400hp before the turbos "flutter"? When it comes to the rebuild time i want to port it and turn the boost up a little there is always a little room to get it faster!! Av quick one for you all is it wierd that my rx doesnt seem to burn that muc oil? Ever since i did the oil change i havent needed to top up and that is afair amount of miles!

If its not been using any oil then get it checked asap \'cos you are gonna be doing lots of wear very quickly to the seals....
If its definately running without oil then you should be getting ready for a rebuild I\'m afraid.
If your going to run it again before its been sorted make sure you run a premix (see sticky on starting a flooded car I think) otherwise you will be saying goodbye to your engine I think!

How much oil does your car go through? I dont do high milage on my car so this could be the reason i am not using the oil!

I do average miles and will need topping up at least once a month where the oil can go down as far as half way??
