STi Time Attack 2008 - new dyno figures !!

[duncan]

So I painted my spare set of wheels

As my other set of white wheels have my road tyres on them, I needed another set of white wheels for the 888's when they get here.

The base wheels were cr@ppy gold std items 8J x 17 but after a good clean and 2 coats of primer and 3 coats of gloss white they look like this:





and just for Stuart

White wheels!

Duncan you must love cleaning

[Ian (DaOne)]

looking good Duncan, cant wait to see it at one of the meets

[duncan]

:lol: - nope I hate cleaning, it just they look so good in white in my opinion (although some people hate them) but way better than gold

The car was at the last meet Ian and will be at the next all being well :thumb:

[neilK]

Duncan, agreed the white look really cool on certain colour cars, but I could not handle the cleaning hence;

[Stuart]

Glad to see your attention to detail had prevailed. Gold centre on white rims looks shit, that's official, so the white looks inordinately better.

Good work. Sorted that oil leak instead of all of this superfluous tat (Excuse me, bit pissed)

[duncan]

Mind you I like them to look black from brake dust - it is fast dirt rather than grime

[duncan]

I should have done this sooner

What a great tool for quickly getting to where you want.

Running at 1.6 bar now and it is .... erm... quite nice :lol:

Nicest thing is that it will hit this in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th with a little spike in boost on gear change. Still a little fettling to do on it to bring boost up right at the top of the tree but being able to hold 1.5 bar to redline is pretty scarey and rather nice.

Once this is completely set up for 1.6 bar I will move onto the 'Race' map.

Nice work Dunc. your persistance with the self mapping is certainly going to pay off
