Jacobep91 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Just an update went for mapping and found that engine timing was 5 teeth out so when it was running properly we found the engine has a slight rattling knock, so I will get this sorted and then try again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jacobep91 Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Hi guys haven't posted for a while Having replaced the engine I took it for mapping and found a slight knocking so didn't make the dyno after fixing the problem I finally got it mapped and gave me a nice 220bhp at .9 bar of boost could have gone more but decided not to Also brought a few extra bits such as an arm rest and a three point rear strut brace Also have a fuse box cover a cooling panel and a couple of other bits but undecided on a few Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jacobep91 Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 We only pushed it to .9 bar of boost probably more the fact of me shitting myself and not wanting anything not go wrong even tho it didn't but yeah but nick said if I pushed to 1 bar he'd have expected 230 240 but I'm happy with that We only pushed it to .9 bar of boost probably more the fact of me shitting myself and not wanting anything not go wrong even tho it didn't but yeah but nick said if I pushed to 1 bar he'd have expected 230 240 but I'm happy with that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
