  1. Haha nice one John you should be very proud, all your own work so big credit to you!
  2. +1 To the above comments, sell the NA for what you can and treat yourself to some thing nice from the classifieds.
  3. Pm Paul directly dude, it will only be a few quid.
  4. Wow looks great! Colour scheme is spot on mate
  5. Is there anything specifically you wanted to ask? I dont mind phoning if its something simple.
  6. I dont know them but your probably better off phoning than emailing.
  7. For what they cost and the time it takes to replace the gaskets its worth doing even if its a small leak. It could have been over tightened at some point or not tightened in the correct pattern. Im sure Whifbitz sells the gaskets seperatly quite cheap.
  8. I got a magnetic sump plug from Whiffin for a good price, they look pretty neat too. Car is coming along nicely mate.
  9. I enjoyed reading that, a bit of creativity goes along way in some cases, good job!
  10. Awesome stuff, I didnt quite know where you was going with that story but you done the right thing!
  11. I also remember Jamie saying 600 is boring 800 is fun and 1000+ is insane! Imo it all comes down to balls and money and if you have both, then why not...

    What bulb?

    Yeah cheers mate that would be great! Let us know and i'll PM you my address. I'll even cover the cost of a stamp and envelope
  13. A small update,,, New transmission is due to arrive on Tuesday at long last Also regarding the car not starting im just awaiting a reply from RyanG as I need him to look at the map on the syvecs, I have a suspicion I may have done something wrong when attempting to pull the logs resulting in the fail safe gauge values im now seeing. Once the map from the last dyno session is uploaded back on to the ECU I should be good to go again!
  14. Kind of simular, as you can see it was quite a pain to achieve a decent reading, these are flywheel figures btw.. Im confused as to why manual mode doesnt work, has your mapper ever explained why manual mode cant work with piggypacks?
  15. I'll read that in a sec, have you got a picture of the dyno graph and i'll post mine up to see how they compare in relation to torque multiplication? I have a feeling they look pretty simular... Edit: Good read that, that pretty much explains everything except why Manu mode doesnt work when piggy back ECU's are fitted?
  16. 3 bar is crazy on that compression ratio! A good video that, it kind of brings in the reality of real life scenarios and gives a sense to what can really happen when you get carried away...

    Oh really! Thats good to know as I need one too for my "D" light I was actually gunno make a thread soon so thanks for clarrifying this
  18. Thats quite a dramatic difference there for the sake of fitting a higher capacity sump, pretty impressive for the tempretures weve been having lately some good info! Good luck with the mapping

    What bulb?

    Looks like the same bulbs that go in the back of the heater control unit, T5 minature size, can get from maplin proabbaly but heres a link for an example - http://www.ledease.com/company/185/products/20104193839375.html
  20. Hmm strange my Manu mode doesnt work either which makes it a real pita to dyno. To give you an idea my car was mapped at 1.6bar and produced 580hp on the stock converter, after fitting the 3800 high stall I had it mapped again increasing the boost to 1.8bar and I lost 40hp.
  21. What ecu(s) are you using? Are you getting manual mode and overdrive? It never locks out completely as if it was welded together as one unit and even past the rated stall speed a converter is always slipping, more so on higher stalls bearing in mind they will sacrafice top end power too but it all depends what ecu is controlling the box and how strong the signals are telling it to lock up etc.
  22. Yeah I will do now ive been told removing it damages it. Think Whiffin sells them if not BC do one. Cheers
  23. Does anyone know if i can re use the oil pump drive gear from my old crank?
