  1. When this happens it always seems to be on a main road (could be cos' I don't really put my foot down otherwise), but was just thinking, what's the possibility of S*** from lorries, diesel and other fluids making the roads a bit more slippy? I know what you mean, most other people with RLTC seem happy enough, cant understand it?
  2. Yeah, that sounds like the best approach, cheers! Had it just over a year, C.W fitted it for me so I'm sure it's fitted correctly, he checked the sensors recently when I had my first incident (so to speak) and all was well. Maybe I need a new dat file, will PM Mr T see what he thinks.
  3. SERIOUS FRIGHT!!!!!! I think I need a new dat file for my RLTC, this is the third occasion when it's let me down big time, with bowel moving consequences (just pure luck I haven’t lost it). I feel like ripping it out… With pliers!!! I’m very disappointed. I was joining the M6 from a slip road and picked up speed to overtake a lorry which was trawling the inside lane. Not particularly throttling it when… Here we go!!!! Back end out, I’d say about 30 degrees to the right, I honestly thought I was going to die, there was traffic everywhere, the roads were wet but not torrential by any means and the system was set to wet (stock off). I just don’t have any faith in it anymore, if it was a one off fine, but as soon as T2 comes on line the thing cant cope, it’s ass over tit! Half the time I have to lift off the throttle when I hear the engine misfiring so that the wheels can regain traction. What’s the point of having it in the first place if I’m the one controlling the slip with my right foot, I might as well sack it off all together (if I don’t lift of the car slows too much so it’s easier to control it myself). Surely that isn’t right with my spec (Technics Hybrids at 1.2 bar on a UK auto). Thoughts? Terminator, you about dude!
  4. My new solar power mod really helps

    LOL..... Dude, maybe she didn't like your taxi either!!!! (Only joking m8)
  7. C.J How come you got banned from the other forum?

    I would never drive a car that looked like a taxi, no matter how it shifted.
  9. Passed one at the speed humps, nice rear bumper... Gave a friendly flash
  10. Ian since you're about is there an approximate cost/time for fitting and mapping an emange>
  11. Try an empty beans can if you want cheap
  12. These kits look very good, the only trouble is they would need to modified for my UK spec to accomodate the light dip and headlight wash, not sure I'd feel confident ebough to start cutting into a dashboard I just bought!
  13. Heckler, that's a cool looking dash!
  14. Some of the sellers on here do it.
  15. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=10428&item=4540769631&rd=1 If you scroll down the page, it looks like you get quite a a bit... Wonder how good it would look fitted?
  16. Gaz at Envy supplied my IK24s
  17. Nic, I've done some research, I dont think I will need all the features of the emanage, I already have my boost setup and FCD. Do you think an SAFC would suffice. Also I think I read somewhere that the stck ECU was mapped up to 1.2 bar, but not sure?
  18. UK spec injectors, IK24's, dont really like the FSE idea, so what's the way forward, ECU would be good but a bit expensive for 1 bar?
  19. I run IK24s on my BPU Supe, they work fine.
  20. If I wanted to raise the boost on my hybrids (technics) to 1.3 bar and avoid detonation problems what would be the safest way to do this. I've ordered a new fuel pump from Paul E for starters to make sure I'm on the right side of the fuelling from that angle, but obviously I will need to make other adjustments, any thoughts? Also, just had a new C.W side mount fitted.
  21. How did she die dude? Hope it wasn't too painful!
  22. Suggest you get the temperature probe in your car fixed too lol
  23. Just checked my dat file with the latest version of the RLTC software from their website. Found that the pulse rate on the wheels was 40 not 48 also the tyres sizes and profiles were a bit off. Will be interesting to see how much difference this makes when I drive her tomorrow... Had a little play with the new "induced missfiring" options too, nice touch by RLTC, it allows you to demo what the system does to the car under slip.
  24. I get the same, although, it does say somewhere that you will get slip on hard lock turns from stationary when your giving it some (I'm sure of this). Maybe it's time for a more aggressive dat file. I regularly get slip in wet conditions even with wet mode on, I'm gonna' have a play mine this weekend, I know for sure that the tyre stettings are not quite right in the dat file. Will let you know how this goes.
