Amjad Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 The car overall performed really well! Took me a bit of time to get used to the track, the types of cars that were out on my session and the limits of the car on the new setup. Oil temps were my main issue on such a hot day, but I stuck to Grant's advice of running the heaters, and doing only 3-4 laps before a cooldown lap and pulling in to let the car cool off. The BOV bung meant I was running more boost, and despite testing it in the morning on the motorway I did have an FMIC pipe pop off several times on track due to the extra heat! Major thanks go to Dan507 for use of his tools which eventually got it fixed in time for me to go out a few more times on track before 5pm! Unfortunately the session in which I was quickest (right at the end of the day) wasn't recorded (dodgy ebay battery in the camera) but here's several other videos..I get faster as you watch the later ones http://youtu.be/I5culaUhupghttp://youtu.be/lsyERrTQZTIhttp://youtu.be/v008o_cXDRohttp://youtu.be/BBgalNy_lHQhttp://youtu.be/IuBpO3z5UnUhttp://youtu.be/73GtSdnUI3I I also have some driveby videos which I'll upload later Amjad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was a proper shame your boost pipe was playon up cuz we never had a propa run togwther Yeah bit of a bummer, but I managed two quick sessions after fixing it and the car felt awesome! I was really impressed how you drove given the stock(ish) suspension and brakes, your V did really well!
