SpikeyJp_68 Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 you running 0.7bar then ?? using that actuator great that you have fulll boost on 3500 still 500 before tdo4 now source yourself an acis manifold to lower it more ( you will gain top end aswell ) what the fuck joey dont ever sell you will regret eventually wee al doYeah standard td/tf actuator so .7 or.8 bar not exactly sure what it is. Got a cheap boost gauge wired in for the moment so we can see what its running.Will be getting innovite gauges like you said colin boost and afr. Exhaust system is in the process of being bought should be here within 2 weeks all going well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpikeyJp_68 Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Bumper had to be cut a bit more..Still needs a little shaving on the lhs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpikeyJp_68 Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Okay so according to my cheap boost gauge im only getting .5 bar of boost which is a good bit under the .7 .8 bar i was hoping for. Im going to get a mechanical boost controller and whack that in and see is it my wastegate spring at fault or is there a boost leak anywhere... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SpikeyJp_68 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Time for an update..Got my indicator units painted up last week silver and black and theyre looking much better nowGot my skirts on good and proper. A piece on the drivers sil needs painting again as paint chipped off the skirt but have a few things to paint now so nothing major. You may havee noticed a lack of midspoiler... it ended up falling off due to my shit painting on the bondimg surface and me not thinking.. have it rubbed down to be painted again as it got chipped when it fell off.Bought a front lip which i believe is a livesports type A ?? Can anyone confirm ? No stamps but i believe livesports only stamped their arches and skirts. Its a perfect fit around the edges and stops when the bumper does. Has holes for screws also. Needs repairing due to it being cracked. Which im not surprised at concidering how low down it sits. Track use only it seems it was made for.Also bought a stainless steel catback. Needs a new flexi but was cheap and cheerful which is all i wanted. May or may not change the backbox to a 5zigen or apexi N1 but we'll seeAnd lastly i got myself a nice new gearknow.. well sort of. Needs drilling and tapping but you get the idea. Now fitted Edited May 23, 2017 by SpikeyJp_68 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpikeyJp_68 Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 Okay so a small update. Past 6 months ive done nothing with the car completely lost interest in it. Recently has been sat on axle stands waiting for calliper rebuild kits to arrive which i now have and hope to do in the next 2 weeks After that sadly im 90% sure im going to get an nct (mot) on it, put an ebc on it and run .8 bar then sell it. Reason being ive had it 5 years already and will be another 5 before i can drive it legally. I have a lot of money tied up in the car so will most likely be for sale in the 1st or 2nd quater of next year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Calum122 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Ahh that's a pity bud. But nothing stopping you from getting another in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Although i keep thinking it wont be 'mine' anyways we csn see ehat happens once its done with an mot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpikeyJp_68 Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 Okay so after a long absence of feeling shit and not wanting to do a great deal with the car ive finally decided to get a few bits done to it I have got the brakes rebuilt and all put on the car seem to be working fine but hope to give it a decent enough run soon enough to find out. My handbrake is none existant so will most likely need 3 new cables. Plan next month is to sort the handbrake, get an ebc wired in and running and sort a few other small things such as a slim fan, passenger airbag needs wiring, cat converter for mot/nct, a rear fog needs wiring up, reverse switch, oil pressure switch, n/s exterior door handle, weld drivers seat mount, secure exhaust heat shields, new fuel gauge sender. Anyone have any of these or the bits below at a reasonable price give me a shout for next month Im hoping at .8 bar, standard ecu with my tf035, i can get around 220bhp. Drove it slightly yesterday and the tf035 feels really nice to drive. Full boost (.5 to .6 bar) is at about 3500rpm but you definitley notice when it comes on. If i was to estimate power output at the moment id put it anywhere from 110bhp to 130bhp After that and once it has an mot/nct, i will be looking at getting a piggyback ecu & mapping, 440cc injectors, c56 gearbox & shafts with possibly a qualife lsd, some new wheels in bronze, meister R coilovers. Heres a few recent pictures to keep you all updated will be knocking about on the forum so hope to catch up on what everyones been up to Quote Link to post Share on other sites
