Spuddy Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Just a good old front mount on her, the methanol will keep it all very cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 600 miles done on the run in, gearbox oil has now been changed and upgraded to the high grade stuff, engine oil has had a few changes but still running mineral for now.Was down at Billybobs house today changing oils and let him take it out for a spin. Here's a vid he recorded. I'll get some more videos up as the interesting things happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 An attempt at doing the Super Unleaded map was unsuccesful, managed about 4 pulls at 0.65bar then the car suddenly cut out, the ECU was no longer reading the trigger sensor signals, some investigation seems to suggest that the trigger sensor has gone faulty.Bit dissapointing but at the same time quite exciting.The car managed on a very rich setting and with no timing being advanced from the safe starting point selected by ECC still managed to make 272hp @0.65bar!So if thats anything to go by, I'm now quite excited about what she'll do up near 2.5bar on methanol.I'll keep yas posted.

Not 100% yet though.Cars fixed again, the trigger wheel expanded on the high rpm run and hit the sensor. New sensor on and she fired right up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-Harry- Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Looks mental mate. What compression ratio did you end up running? Something high for the methanol? Also, why didnt you go auto? If yours going all out drag than nothing beats a well sorted auto/line locker.Now get back, fill in with meth and take off the wastegate lines Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mini valver Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 270 bhp at 0.6 bar this thing is going to be crazy prob one of the fastest front wheel drives in the contry. street legal any ways Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Had a fun day down at ECC today, got her mapped on Super Unleaded and a little bit of the methanol map done.I've no charts at the moment, just a very poor quality video of a pull while running Methanol.I'll try and get some dyno charts at some stage.1.8bar on Super Unleaded made 402hp (ran out of fuel so just left her at that)1.3bar on Methanol made 414hp.Not used nitrous yet on any runs as it's early days and still learning a few things about running the methanol but its looking promising.Video of 1.3bar on methanol (rubbish quality) The car will be running 2.2-2.5bar when fully mapped with nitrous on top, providing the clutch and such allows it.@Harry - Compression ratio had alot of thought put into it, with methanol it's not unusual to run 11.5:1 and still run 3 bar boost. I decided for 9.5, however the final figure was a little lower. I wanted to keep her manual cause I reckon its more fun to drive plus a manual setup was easier to sort out.

daz gt turbz Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 bloody hell what did you take that video on?!! still sounds mental tho mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 fooking hell! what are sort of power you hoping to get at 2.5 bar?!?!?! thats just crazy!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Lol the video was on a very ancient Nokia, only thing I had to hand, will get some better quality stuff when the really serious mapping starts.I'm only after a figure in the 500hp area but the car is passing my predictions, reckon it will clear 500hp without nitrous so prob settle for in around 550hp but I'd think the clutch will have something to say about that.

shorty Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 What clutch setup you gone for dude? You not using a twin plate of some kind?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 What clutch setup you gone for dude? You not using a twin plate of some kind??Still using a stage 5 competition clutch, so far so good but I don't expect it to last. Being a 5E there are no twin plates available that I know of, been looking at the OSGeiken twin plates but would need to have it altered to fit the 5E. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Contact os giken mate, they where exactly who had in mind tbh, and im sure they will do a 5e fly for you if they dont alreadt make one as i know their range is alot lot bigger than people think bud, a redrilled 4e fly at the power your looking at would always be a concern in the back of my mind if it was my engine. But defo defo drop them a line as they are a fantastic buch! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
