No point in keeping the dpf but turning off the regen as it won’t clean it.

Pretty much your full first paragraph.

Wrong Turbo limit is 150 dpf 175-180

seems to be all the good old ebay traders have gone although im finding myself using waze more or less all the time now so wondering if its worth it

Why if the 1.6 can take good power?

Really enjoying the car now, little glitch on it lately (im not one to only show the good stuff as you can tell) was filling up the washer fluid and thought there was a bolt missing from the downpipe but since its always had a Vband before i kept doubting myself so fired a quick email to darkside just to check and they said there should be one there and looks like it had fell out so would send me a conversion kit to studs and nuts instead which they posted out on tuesday at no cost so top customer service as usual. Then last night was driving to a friend to visit them on the motorway, no high speeds or full throttle runs just crusing then put on a little throttle to overtake someone and i heard a ping then the car got really loud. Got off the motorway and pulled over and the other bolts had came out and the downpipe had fell off. Had to then drive it to my mechanic up here to drop it off at his house which involved driving with all the windows down so i didnt gas myself to death 🤣 killer of a headache today i can tell you that. new parts arrived today and managed to source a gasket locally as thankfully thats a factory part All fixed again and new pads fitted, EBC Bluestuff an upgrade from the yellowstuff pads, never had an issue with yellowstuff but want to try these as this gets to higher speeds alot quicker Absolutely loving the car now, trying to get into TOTB to get runs at elvington but they aren't replying to messages and also noticed that Terminal Velocity and doing some rolling half mile events this weekend to. Has seen 163mph on the clocks so far.

why not just post and let us all know i wouldnt mind knowing? @Rustynuts how long have they been running it for

get it on my diesel

Had a run in it today 0-60 was awful as it just spins till 3rd and then takes off, you can see on the graph its behind the other turbos as its spining then gets traction and buggers off

Did a quick run in it today 0-60 was rubbish as it was spinning till 3rd but then it really starts going 30-70 time is really crazy considering its spinning all the way there basicly looking at the graphs compared to before you can see its way behind then just buggers off

RTMG are legit they have the fastest 1.4 twincharge cars in the world. i know Christos and we’ve met up a few times and he’s came up to Scotland he’s a proper decent guy.

Yeah I know Chris there he’s a decent guy. Is it Greece or Sheffield you’re sending it to? Just checked you’d need to send it to Greece couple of weeks turn around or if you buy a reconditioned or new one from rtmg Christos can get it in a week.

Since smoke levels are a big talking point on diesels to give you an idea of how much it smokes

Found the Rev limiter

Gearbox is fine so far. It gets the power down decent as it’s got a diff and PS4 tyres although in the rain today I’m getting wheel spin in 3rd at 65mph.....

Seems to get cheaper the more powerful it gets not sure how that works though.

There was times when they were stripping down the engine and I got email after email with details of the damage where I felt like giving up on it but kept remembering it’s my first car and I just couldn’t give up on it.

To be honest i didnt notice it wasnt there till the video went up then i looked at my pictures lol ill probably just get another for the sake of £14

I’m not a fan of the clean look prefer it looking like it actually gets used 😂

Not sure I’m happy with the 5 speed but Ryan really wants me to fit a 6 speed. I probably would have did it if the wavetrac fitted but I would have had to buy another and I wanted to try and reuse as much parts as I could from the 1.6 build.

videos up

Well picked it up today and its crazy. Took it easy to the petrol station then on the way after it was warmed up i thought coming into a NSL i would put my foot down abit in 3rd, car didnt seem to go anywhere and thought i had broke it again looked down and seen the traction control light going crazy. It was trying to spin up the wheels in 3rd at 45mph! once it gets going it really really goes and doesn't seem to want to stop. I was worried that it would be too loud but cruising on the motorway home on the cruise control it was no louder than it was with the CR170 turbo and managed 53mpg and no smoke. Changes that were done. 2.0 CR140 engine GTB2260VK Turbo Race cams Headbolts CP3 Fuel Pump Stage 2 Injectors W/M injection 2.0 Radiator new oil and intercoolers

They finished editing the video for this today so hopefully that will be up in the next couple of weeks.

I’ve not even had a go yet 🤣
