It's near as damn it 170bhp. What was the torque reading? About 300 ft lb?

Nice start mate! Whats the dyno like to get on down there? Thinking of going myself soon! That evo lives on my estate just round the corner from me, bloke drives like a nutter! Haha

Well was told my torque was around 280 by hayes. high torque map is 310 but looking at the graph it is around 300. Yeah getting quoted 170 and then making 168 is amazingly accurate. Hats off to faboka. Cant wait to get the gauges in I love dial.

I was warned this dyno was the heartbreaker and not letting you think its got more power than you have. Mixed reviews through the 15 of us. A friends scooby rr'd at roger clarke made 290bhp but here made 270. One of me mates convinced the man doing the rr to change mine to at the wheel not the fly so when my figures first showed i was deeply dissapointed only to smile after he switched it back

Had swmbo's previous vRS on 2 separate RR's, as a standard car made 150 and 153 bhp with no mods (an '06' red so a BLT engine?)

Each of the guys who ran them on the RR said that these engines always make 150 with no mods, so a gentle remap later it was on jus over 170bhp.

If you take the 130 moniker as read, and if you hadn't paid attention to or had a RR session, you think you've gained 40bhp, whereas the reality was 20bhp, albeit, as said, it was a very gentle map

very true. Need a before and after really. But Im happy with the difference between when I brought it and when I mapped it so all is well

More parcels

 

got some modifications to do to get it all to fit flush as I want the gauges above the headunit not the otherway round.

 

Will worry about wiring them up over the weekend. cant wait to see them alive

Top work mate, is the map nice and smooth? Bet it is

yeah quite smooth. 4th gear pull is impressive

I like 3rd gear the best, 30-70 is awesome. It is a smooth map I should of done it the day I bought it lol

Any idea where I can locate my original oil pressure switch???

It's normally on the filter housing but not sure on these I've never really looked for it to be fair

Spent 3 hours this evening with couple of mates and the 312mm calipers discs and pads are on

PD160 intake is also on

 

Gauges tomorrow

Gauges are wired in, Not linked to Boost yet as waiting for EGR delete kit to arrive, and havent plumbed in the Oil pressure gauge but you get the drift.

 

Looks good and you've got the same stereo as me!

Cheers mate

Looks smart simple and keeping the green standard theme going. bargain £51.00 brand new 

 

be good when I get it to stop flashing

Got my Pastyboy badges through from Bowen, he even sent me a chocolate coin through, car hasn't been clean enough to actually do any work to it at the moment. seems theres too much power going to the gauges hence there pulsing.

Turbo

FMIC
