JamieP Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 At last everything seems all good now, rear end is planted again after the geo setup today (thanks wheels in motion) no more wiggly rear end. Boost seems to be spot on now, just waiting to see Ryan on wensday for a few tweaks. Got the winter tyres off the car today (falken 452's) my god them tyres are sh1t compared to R888's, nice to have some grip again. Also had my MT et street drag tyres fitted to my 17" volks today, ill get a pic of them on the car over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdMorris Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Great stuff, glad she's handling like new again. Out of interest, what settings did Wheels in Motion use? Standard or something custom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) Great stuff, glad she's handling like new again. Out of interest, what settings did Wheels in Motion use? Standard or something custom? As its pretty low stock settings are no good, setting was all over the place as Lee had replaced everuthing.

4packet Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 If it's a permanent fixture you can run the wire up through a gromet in the spare wheel. Wire can be routed behind a heat shield with minimal fuss. Mine's mounted to the towing eye. Sig gives an idea of output. Just waiting to see if it has survived the winter.

JamieP Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 See Ryan today for some more mapping, turns out the flames are not from over fueling, its oil, getting lots of smoke on boost, looks like the seals have gone on the turbo, my own fault as i bodged a quick fix to the turbo feed when it broke, no restrictor equals blown seals. No big deal, ive pm'd dusty to get me another turbo asap, hope it comes in time for thunder road, although i will run like this if i have to, just wont perform to its best. Also my built engine is done, not sure when to fit it tbh as i dont want to miss any shows, gonna check out whats going on and may fit it the week after thunder road.

Gaz6002 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Nah, i wont be running it in, 50 miles, oil change and then full boost. that's the way to do it! Amazing how opinion differs on that subject really. My mate is right in the middle of running in his rotary for 1500 miles and it's driving him crazy. I won't tell him about the other method though lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
