There are some small bits i want to sort out:



1) Air filter needs locating behind the grille as it faces down at the moment.


2) Refit intercooler so it sits straight, bracket needs modifying to pull it up on passenger side.



I have a couple of bits i need to fit to her before mapping on 4th april.



1) fit oil catch tank with an-10 braided hoses


2) fit WEPR radiator with new mounts.



thats all for now, ill upload a engine bay pic once i have given her a good clean and polish.

Small update. I've done a total of 211miles now! I've done my first oil change, was done at 151 miles!

I've also sorted the air filter now sits just behind the grille! I'm happy with the result :)

I also got an engine bay shot! I'll do abit of degreasing soon to bring her up nice and clean!

I gave her a quick clean aswell just using jet wash and some shampoo to take the top layer of dirt of! I would like to have a detailing session to really clean her up polish, wax etc!

Quick engine bay shot took today :)

C949B9C1-F933-4498-99E1-69837EA9F8C4_zps

Checked all the levels today to make sure all were correct! Everything was spot on! No oil or coolant leaks etc!

List of bits I need to do is getting shorter! Just leaves:

1) Fit torque damper

2) Fit walbro 255 fuel pump

3) Fit WEPR rad

4) Fit oil catch tank with An10 braided hoses

5) Staighten intercooler, needs to go up on passenger side.

Hoping to have these done before japfest!

Small update

Done the prep ready for my mapping:

Filled up with v-power ready for the 320mile round trip!

Swapped over from the mineral running in oil to Millers 5-40 fully synthetic Motorsport oil

Checked over all the fluids and levels - all ok

Checked over all ignition components for wear - all ok

Just a reminder of what's happening tommorow.

1) EMB - Supplied, fitted and mapped

2) GFB G Force 2 Boost Controller - Supplied, fitted and setup

3) 430cc Injectors - Supplied and fitted

4) Sard FPR - Fitted

5) Walbro 255 Fuel pump - Swapped from old housing and fitted to mine.

6) Bleed Clutch - biting point keeps moving about!

So now the fun part. What's everyone guessing? What power do you think she will make?

I'll go in with a guess of 305bhp at the flywheel!

Update.

As above, i went to tuning developments to have some work done on the car on the 4th April.

After all the work was complete Mike and Nick which i have to say are possibly two of the kindest people I have ever met. Very genuine guys that will help out in any way possible! We got the car on the DYNO and started the mapping process, started off nice and easy and gradually added the boost. Few problems mid way through the mapping first of all, she developed a misfire at 1bar. The probe which connects the king lead and dizzy cap had broke therefore causing a misfire, secondly the spark plugs were rusty. Again causing a misfire due to the contacts!

Gradually added some more boost. Final problem was the gasket between turbo and manifold blew out completely, this got to a point where the mapping had to be cut short as it was messing up the readings on the wideband!

The end result FOR NOW! Is 253hp at 1.1bar. Couple of things turbo is quite laggy. 1bar is around 5k rpm but I'm getting use to it now!

I've spoken to sacha regarding the turbo and he says it's not within its efficiency range until around 1.2bar so only time will tell.

When i got home that night I set at replacing the gaskets that are supplied with the turbo kit with some metal gaskets which I bought whilst I was at TD.

Whilst removing the downpipe I managed to break the plug off the 02 sensor so I am in the process of sourcing another one. A friend of mine is breaking a glanza so I have asked him to keep hold of the 02 sensor for me! When I turn the steering wheel on idle the fan belt slips but my adjuster for the fan belt has seized solid so I have also asked him to out that aside for me aswell.

Once the video of DYNO session has completed upload onto photobucket I will upload onto here but for now that everything.
