and1c Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Would be interested to see what checks Greg carries out pre mapping, got mine booked in with him and will do a pre test test lol . GL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 Think it'll be finished in morning as he has to pick kids up. It got to over 650 fly and then stopped. All looking great though and engine strong and healthy which is a positive. I have to say, ProTuner are amazing. I had the tiniest boost leak and they were like "No, it has to be rectified now before dyno". No risks taken, a thorough job. Greg and Simon will turn the car away if anything needs doing that cant be rectified there guaranteed so be warned. Worth doing a boost leak test before you go to if you can. You're in good hands though. They have a stellar reputation and Greg knows mapping inside out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 Sounding great greg, will they be pushing the power any further?Thanks mate. That's not the objective I've given Greg. I just said get it running spot on, sort out TC and see how we go. Even if it came in less than the 750rwhp before mate I wouldn't be disappointed if the car is running flawlessly. We all know big numbers are great but putting them down and true usability is a different matter. 650 at the wheels is the sweet spot for me.

Sheefa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Not finished yet gents! Greg does take his time to get it 100% right. Will be done by early afternoon and TC wasn't picking up wheel speed. Greg said it'll break 800 fly on ethanol. The trouble is I still have this small 3" restriction where the titianium exhaust meets midpipe where as everything else is 3.5"-4" so I can't push for nore yet until that's resolved.

Krister Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 That 3" section will rob you a lot of horsepower and spool. I would change it ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Update: One of the twin pumps had loads of dirt in it as filter came off. Frustrating but at least it's being sorted with new pump. One pump is good for circa 700 but need two for ethanol and want to push it properly. So I would imagine final dyno run is tomorrow. At least the car will be back 100% which is all I want [emoji16] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Yep. Being sorted asap whether through Tim or someone else. I have all the bits ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Results are in!!! Car made 750rwhp as per before on E42 (685rwhp on Vpower) at 2 bar. It would benefit from having that exhaust restriction removed, E85 and 1500cc injectors [emoji6] However, I'm happy with a working car and 750rwhp right now [emoji16][emoji16] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 Literally just picked the car up and absolutely staggered at the difference. It's so smooth and damn quick on spool. I'm over the moon with it now, can't praise Greg's work enough and thanks to Lee to for helping out on the TC front. The idle is really nice too now as the Duty was out quite a bit and also the TPS sensor wasnt seated correctly which made idling a little erratic. Fuel pump failure was due to filter coming off in tank and sucking up a bit of plastic which was left in tank from drilled hole apparently. Old pump totally FUBARd. New one fitted and twin pumps fuelling nicely. Resolved my traction control issue which was due to someone wiring both of my speed inputs in the Syvecs ECU being wired to the front wheels only and not the rear! Pretty pointless traction control then. All nicely resolved now. I was thinking that's me done but then Greg started talking about bigger 1500cc custom made Denso type injectors and E85 too for more power in Spring 2018. I said to him why would I want more power than the 750 I have already, he replied "Why not? What's wrong with you?" [emoji23][emoji23][emoji16] He's a very good mapper and salesman. Looks like I might be back soon to max out the turbo and built engine.......... Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AC93 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Nice! ...what bhp did he estimate if you had that installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 Nice! ...what bhp did he estimate if you had that installed? Well the plan was to max out the turbo so 900 fly ideally. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
