 Expert Posts: 2812  Location: Bournemouth | 450bhp would be perfect but think ultimately the turbo wont give me 400bhp unless i go past 2 bar boost 400bhp/tonne will be just about right Could ultimately get 500bhp/tonne but would need to get weight below 800kgs but i like electric windows  | ||

Expert Posts: 2812 Location: Bournemouth | dazz 111 - 11/9/2012 2:19 AM beat the time and get your sign on fee paid Why o why do i make these bets ! Couple of bits turned up today Gaz Gold Pro from junks thank you sir 3" 200 cell cat rated to 400bhp Vibratechnics engine mounts for k series but using the motorsport harder compound for the engine  Oil cooler is next problem the 620 oil pump doesn't have any tappings for the cooler and they are in the wrong place so looks likely to be a remote filter with cooler attached Got a couple of extra naca ducts and bought a 4 inch inline fan to circulate air when stationary or higher temps Also got a turbo blanket as it was cheap | ||

Expert Posts: 2812 Location: Bournemouth | Ok cut the firewall today, actuator needed to go on the otherside so thought it best to cut out the panel for a bit of extra room and also ease of inspection of the turbo as it will be engine out otherwise Gearbox sits on the same mounts but about 25mm further towards the passenger wheel so the gear linkage needed a little tweak Vibratechnics mounts are in, spoke with Phil today and he is happy with the way its in. even mentioned the drivers side engine mount is used on the supras and 700lbft so should be ok (y) But, bought a new toy, its called the S-dash. I am not a fan of lots of gauges in a car, esp when on a mission as its the last thing you look at, i loved my DASH2 in the metro as it had hi-lo alarms but didnt want to change the std stack on the elise to keep the car looking std as possible. So Drew at Roverdose showed me this S-Dash made by a guy in Belgium. It plugs into the DTA (one of the reasons i bought the dta) and can show 48 channels of information. Basically everything the DTA can see if will show and it has HI-LO alarms that can be configured to rpm, temp etc So above 12.5 AFR above 6000rpm below 15 AFR below 10% throttle etc It also has shift lights built in, is a data logger with 8mb memory, can hold 8 maps downloadable in 5 secs and an easy wipe screen incase i get any more excited :wub :up    | ||
