Right fairly biggish update on the car, certainly the drive of it is much changed.
I have now got rid of the standard Ecu and gone to a Haltech E6X unit.
As there was no harness for a straight swap, this did mean a lot of extra wiring by Westons who supplied and Fitted it.
I have got rid of that crappy old AFM and gone for a 3.0 bar MAP sensor.
I have gained Nealy 20 bhp for the same boost level, but there is so much more to be unlocked, however high intake temps are holding me back. :?
I will soon be fitting a much longer Intercooler and re routing my pipe work so I go over the cool side of the engine, hopefully into a side feed 162 manifold. This should then allow me to up the boost a touch and get closer to 300bhp. However in the real world, and not just dyno figures, the car is so much quicker, as before a low speeds I had an awful flat spot due to over fueling, which is now a distant memory.
Few pics of the engine bay, excuse the mess, it needs a damn good sort out and clean, but its too much fun driving it.
The car has also benefited from bucket seats to allow me to remain in place when throwing it around the Track
Shake down for the next TSS sprint was for me a short on track session at Brands last Sunday, where the car was really good.
I have a stiffer front Anti roll bar to fit to help cure the roll in the front springs, and a few extra bits such as a brake stopper and upgraded engine mounts to try and make all the difference.
Few pics from Brands
This Sunday is the Next Sprint, so fingers crossed both me and the car can gel and pull of a good result!!
