To make up the numbers, is it ok if I invite some mates along with their cars? (not MR2s)

Any mapping will be done last like last time guys,

Had an email back from Ryan, he says he will be there

Chaps, I have installed a manual boost controller (boost tee). problem is it's overboosting, way over 1 bar no matter how i adjust it. I have blocked off the vsv valve and outlet from the wastegate actuator. Any suggestions? Also, Where is the connection underneath the car where you would electroni...

Well it cant be a rev3 turbo/actuator as the lowest boost you can run on a rev3 actuator is 13psi IIRC. With my boost controller off I get 8psi until about 5000rpm, then the boost creeps to between 10-11.5psi depending on how cold it is outside. Really i thought the rev3 actuator was 13psi? Maybe r...

Awesome result! Look at that torque! Looks like you have a very very fit engine!

De cat is just a straight through pipe to replace the cat. Because the decat is less restrictive you gain some power.

Smaller compressor wheel should give better spool but wont boost as high I think.

Might just be due to dizzy cap or leads being wet. higher boost always seem to show up any weakness in the ignition.

Target is more comfort Rob, not being held in the seat better

Yeah Im after a bit of both really. Dont find the standard GT seats all that brilliant, bit more comfort and bit more support.

A what?

I would be up for the 27th of March, I need my map slightly tweeked now I have a better coil if Ryan is going to be there?

If not ill come down for a power run anyway!

easier to remove the turbo connected to the manifold....ive even had it out with manifold and downpipe attached (tho it was a decat pipe, not stock downpipe)... i asume your running a downpipe, or at least got one to put on? no point swapping turbos then finding out you want to ditch the CAT and ne...

sorry for thread hijack but I would really like to know the outcome of this. I just bought a GT4 off a bloke and its now in the garage because the temps went sky high. According to him everything is fine on the way down. There's loads of steam coming from the plastic tube thingy attached to the rad...

Misfires! Check all the ignition components. Magnacore leads are crap. check plug gaps. Dont forget the coils and ignitors are quite old now if they are the ones from when the car was new.

Also, water drips on the dizzy cap.

Haha lucky boy! I keep looking in the for sale section, hoping some will come up!

Not many manufacturers ever catered for the SW20 because it doesn't have a flat floor like most cars. You pay through the nose if you do ever find the correct mounting brackets (FIA approved brackets are a fixed standard aren't they? don't know if they allow adjustment though) from the manufacturer...

Sounds like you hit fuel cut. Perhaps your actuator is broken or the wastegate is stuck preventing it from limiting the boost.

You definatly dont have any sort of boost controller fitted?

How tall are you? Nearly all aftermarket seats sit higher than the stock position in my experience. They have all been bottom mount though, not sure if side mount would suffer from that. Only 5'10. I just really want some more comfortable but more supportive seats, that can still be adjusted. Seems...

I see. So they still slide back and forward?

Awesome! Dont know what else to say really!

Look forward to seeing the end result!
