Chris Bailey Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) A little update. Managed to get the car out for a quick spin today, came across a C63 AMG that wanted a play. Left him for dead on 1bar of boost He gave the thumbs up on the way past. Not really a race more a demolition, but to be expected . Only downside was we blew an intercooler off later on. Bit annoying as we had to ease it home. Was a little fiddly to get back on but all fixed now . Still haven't had the car over 1.3 bar as its plenty fast enough will have to test 1.7bar soon though!

mattdavies Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Sounds like you are enjoying your new found power. Which Hose popped off ? What is it like to drive compared to the T04z ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbt Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Sounds like you are enjoying your new found power. Which Hose popped off ? What is it like to drive compared to the T04z ? I would say that at 1 bar the precision set up is as fast as my T04Z was at 1.6 bar - enough said really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In answer to your other question, it was the intercooler pipe that runs underneath the car from turbo to intercooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxluc Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Nice kill mate. A friend is his C63 wanted to play (last September iirc). Starting around 50mph, he was struggling to get the needle above 100mph when I was already at 160+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Few cars stand a chance against a proper single Supra ; and certainly against SRD creations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Bailey Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Been having trouble recently with an intercooler pipe popping off on heavy acceleration/full throttle at 1bar. After having the car up on the trolley jack 4-5 times the problem has finally been fixed (fingers crossed) Managed to spray alot of hairspray on the silicone and the intercooler pipe and double clamp it. Its holding 1.3bar and stayed on when dad took a few people for a spin at Bluewater. Thanks to Benjy and Mk4Gaz for the hairspray tip Also thanks to Lee at SRD for his advice and for also sending out some more silicone and murrey clamps, Great service and speedy delivery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
