  1. That is a cage
  2. I'd put the cage in my car up against most of the modern stuff on the market today, the best 1500 quid I hope I never get to use.
  3. You know when you roll your car and you are harnessed into your seat bolt up right, chances are the highest thing inside the car is your head. Just think about that for a little bit, then you might understand why harness bars are difficult to come by, and why using rear seat belt bolts for harness anchor points are generally frowned upon. I get it though, I was young once and drove cars both on road and track with harnesses without a rollcage. So if you're going to do it, just bolt them in, a harness bar on its own is just a waste of money. Besides from anything else, they are bloody annoying to use on the road!
  4. All roll cages worth their salt will come equipped with a harness bar.
  5. Booked onto this, can't wait!
  6. With circuit days, I can get you discount of about £20 quid if you'd like it. Silverstone, obvs.

  8. I've just come back from a week out there, went with a friend who's golf you might have seen doing 7:45 laps on BTG. Mental car
  9. All the cool kids are at Donington the day after ;)

    EMB Questions

    Cheers, we had it working, but because I'd not set the actuator correctly it wasn't much use. I've done some reading this afternoon which suggests I shouldn't have a problem with connecting my laptop to the EMB, so we'll see how I get on.
  11. That's awesome, it's a shame they didn't find the owner and ask him about it.

    EMB Questions

    I understand what you're saying, but once I've spent the time setting it up it's unlikely I'll need to change it very often. The car only gets driven half a dozen times a year! We'll see, I'll make up the cable tonight and see what happens, what could possibly go wrong?

    EMB Questions

    I know that seems to be the norm, but there's no reason why using the EMB's additional injector map shouldn't work. I'd like to at the very least try it before spending £300 on something I might not need..

    EMB Questions

    No boost controller, I have a 3 port solenoid and have it all wired up. Not much time was spent on boost control due to the wastegate giving me the desired level of boost during mapping, I now want to run lower wastegate pressure and add boost control. Using the additional injector map should allow me to adjust duty cycle by RPM, obviously this is much more desirable than using the wastegate solely, or running a boost controller. I just don't want to mess up what's already there! I might pop in and see Will @ RDT who mapped it to ask for some advice. Just to be clear, I'm not looking to increase boost levels, I want to run the same, but have better control over it. Bleeding boost away from the wastegate should increase response, which is my aim here.

    EMB Questions

    Have any of you accessed your EMB using GReddy software? Had my car mapped last year, but would like to tweak the additional injector map to use for boost control. I have a cable, and the software installed on my laptop, BUT am cautious about connecting it to my EMB in case something goes wrong and resets or wipes the bloody thing. Are there any steps I need to follow so the above doesn't happen? Cheers
