Ricky49 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Not fancy TDI hub dyno? Would it make a difference compared to SRR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) Not fancy TDI hub dyno? Would it make a difference compared to SRR. not sure mate to be honest i'd have to ask Lee/Ryan - i still think it needs to be locked in manu mode to get a clean run though Edited September 8, 2010 by Jamesy (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Nice one mate looks a great bay and clearly some even better numbers to come yet, and the current ones arent exactly shabby So you must have had a good play last night after the dyno session, how are you finding the new toy?

I'll hold my hands up and say that although i drove it back from the dyno last night i drove like a bit of a pussy .... firstly i really didn't want to kill Lee and i also quite like the car the way it looks now, not in pieces. As Ryan said at the moment its actually pretty dangerous on the road with the power its got and the smaller rear wheels giving zero traction! I think i need some temporary rear wheels for a month or so!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 did you use the manu mode to drive when it was bpu? i never use mine not 100% confident using it... just put it in D and away you go lol. but i need to start using it if im going na-t cant get over how nice the pulleys, belt and plenum look, they all complement each other.... clear cam cover i hope?

Stonkin Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Nothing pussy about taking it easy in it mate. You know it needs wider rears and fairplay to you for respecting that. Better that than it ending in tears after the time, effort and money involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polished cam covers mate - got an electric blue spark plug cover going on (cut and modified to show pulleys), and a polished/blue strut brace I never used Manu mode before mate, and dont ever plan on using it now - we just need to wire it up somehow to be able to use that function for the dyno run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
