Hopefully the box will be sent to Lee's gearbox specialist and see what Boostlogic actually do to call it an "uprated box" and then go from there.

j_jza80 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Lee has fitted a stock auto as a temporary fix. . That's good news at least, you can still drive the car around so long as you don't run it on full power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Graph from mapping today. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/02/18/4ef10f08c270e8782e262dbae2c02e81.jpg Whats with power dropping off at 4k then climding less agessively? is that fully mapped? Or just a generic map available from previous cars done on a syvecs close to your spec? I would have thought it should be a more linnear power curve with no dips in it!

Chris Bailey Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 (edited) That's good news at least, you can still drive the car around so long as you don't run it on full power He worked overtime on Friday aswell just incase we wanted to collect the car this weekend which was nice of him. Although I think its been arranged Lee is keeping the car for aslong as he needs to until the Boostlogic box has been checked over and fixed. Then it will be going back on the dyno to finish mapping. Lee and the SRD team have been absolutely spot on throughout as always Edited February 20, 2016 by Chris Bailey (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was to do with the gearbox fault, they couldn't dyno the car in 3rd gear as they lost 3rd gear, so had to be mapped in 4th. Im sure Lee will know why. Once the gearbox issue has been sorted it will be going back on the dyno to finish mapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They shim the valve springs pritty much what davidP does so I have heard , be good to see a full stip down though to fulley confirm as the information I have seen the company didnt name names, but owner did. Glad to hear your be back on the road quick the stock box should last a while if limited to around 550 ftlb Edited February 21, 2016 by mellonman (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee P Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Any luck with the gearbox situ guys? Gearbox is with our specialist but he's very busy so can't look at it just yet.

Chris Bailey Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 We have the car back and took her to the Bluewater meet on friday night. The car feels spot on and handles much nicer after the GEO setup, gives you much more confidence. Also the flappy paddles are brilliant, to be able to hold the gears in the rev range you want is brilliant. Pulls so hard in 2nd gear at only 1.4bar also you dont have to worry about the gearbox kicking down unexpectedly which is nice. Once we have our built box back in the gearchanges will be nice and fast and really will be a brilliant setup. Here's a couple of pictures after a nice clean. Will try grab some more soon once we've gave it a good detail under the bonnet etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
