Great results!   Who tuned her for you?        I see you are running 10.5 plugs,  do you find they foul in traffic/slow driving? or did you not notice any difference?


With figures like that you should eat M3\'s, chew them up and spit them out again!
regards
tony

Not sure that Max does any slow driving.  From what he was saying about the recent trip round the ring it eats not just M3s but big porkers and ferarris.  Sweet!

Great results Max / Sideways Steve:bandit

Out of interest what were your inlet temps and Max were you running your water injection?
I recon with the right launch you could be seeing high 10\'s...........Now that would liven things up for Rotorstock, me thinks I will be hiding behind me bar-b-que:cool safer to burn the sausages than rubber :rollin :rollin :rollin

[maximtaylor]

mmmm.....inlet temps were getting a bit of a concern, I peaked at 28 celsius, oil temp 70, water temp 85 :cool

Water injection is not plumbed in fully yet (one of those jobs I keep meaning to finish).

Car is running one of my own maps at present, seems to like it as well. If it can stand 4 days of serious abuse, like it did at Nurburgring, then that\'s good enough for me!

Tony, I have no problems whatsoever with the 10.5 plugs

Geff - I always new Steve wasn\'t going sideways on purpose it\'s just his heavy right foot When it rains, my heart pounds, Steve looks forward to it:)

Nice to know Steve\'s car is finally producing the goods, he must be a chuffed little bunny

Steve seems to have problems in the rain, last time I meet steve for a drink, he was driving at 90 backwards on the m25 :rollin

Hi all,

I will update the table when I get back to Oz.  Nice figures there guys - make sure if you have any other figures to post, reply to this post here so that I can update it all in one go.

Sorry Carl, just noticed I missed a question in your post!

Skippy at G-Force uses 4th gear for the pulls

You should be seriously quick up the 1/4 now.
Considering that Clive had 355 at the hubs on the dyno hub at Abbey, you have currently got a lot more power than he had when he did the 12.2 1/4 mile, and with your wheels and Drag tyres you should be able to easily do a serious 11 second time up the strip if not a 10 with your caz diff.
What gear did you do your run on the rollers in?
Tim may be going up a week on sunday,maybe you could go too?
Kind regards
Carl

Yeah, his car was totally different after going on the rollers. I drove it to and from CPL and the difference was very noticeable! Steve was happy - some thing like "**** yeah!"

There was a little downward boost \'blip\' right where peak power wouldve been (new boost controller not yet fitted), Guy reckoned it would see 340atw had the boost been maintained.

Steve\'s parting shot when he left last night was some thing along the lines of "what d\'ya reckon about 1.2bar then mate?" :rollin

[bnaellis]

Smifta,
Got 326 fwhp 261 rwhp @ .7 bar of boost on Saturday too.

max, you have pm

If you could see the grin on my face
Yesterday my car was taken and re-tuned as it wasn\'t running properly at Santa Pod with the map supplied.
Carl & Ant have worked there magic and got an extra 70 bhp out of my baby.

Please put me at the top of this list as my car with its itsy bitsy to4e made 365 bhp at abbey, at the hubs, and 298 lbs of torque.

engine built by carl, tuned by carl/ant.

wwwwaaaaahhhhhhhoooooooooooooooo..........................

Big thanks to all that helped with this.  You know who you are....

Stunning power figures Gary - congrats to you and carl/ant.

On a different note I spoke to Pip @ WGT yesterday about de-catting and mapping my car and mentioned the power figures from the FDUK rr day @ g-force.

His response to their 240 RWHP figure from the car he rebuilt for me last year was "I didn\'t know I was that good".  His opinion is that they\'re reading some 20-30 HP higher than reality considering the only mod I have is street-porting on the rebuild!

Will be interesting to see what de-cat/mapping do for it!

Nice one Gary

How much boost were you running?

Do you reckon you were close to the flow limits of the T04e??

Regards

Max

[g11ary]

It was mapped to 1.1 bar I believe, I was not there but that is what my high boost setting is set to. Would go higher boost but will need to pull the engine and get Carl to breath some of his magic over it and dowl it.

It must be pretty close to its limits I would have thought. Anyone know what a t04e\'s optium boost is?

[maximtaylor]

You weren\'t there? Sorry should have said well done Gary, Carl and Ant!!

I have a similar problem to you Gary, in that I\'m going to have to get mine dowelled.

I\'m thinking of getting a 2nd engine built to spec. That way, I\'ll always have a spare should something untoward happen.

Or I could just up the boost and wait for something to give

Nearly forgot, I did say last week that I wouldn\'t be after any more power :rollin

No it was Chloe\'s birthday, so now have 2 blisters from the shopping trip to London.
Should have gone to the rolling road, would have saved me the cost of 2 dowled engines :rollin
