Re: Rolling Road Today At 4pm

ok, forgot to let you all know what happened lol!

got my car onto the rollers and they found a couple of probs! my air flow meter (AFM) is knackered, dump valve leeks and my boost leak is from around the turbo area (one of the pipes not the turbo itself! phew!!)!

so, rang my mate, he's giving my 2 AFMs and all boost pipes that are around the turbo area so i can replace them. also i got 2 other dump valves lying around so i'll just whack another one one!!

once i sorted that i can get back on the rollers and get it fully sorted! so, bit disapointed but not all too bad really!

LOL I was wondering Dunk!

Look on the bright side – at least you caught them in time

Good Luck and tell us the BHP when sorted.

"changed my dump valve take off to a silver one (just cos i felt like it lol)." all right for sum

what sort of figures are you expecting in terms of bhp?

I've been busy treating my baby to some goodys as well lol, replaced my standard turbo cos it began to smoke quite badly with a nice sexy shiney hybrid T25 , new red samco coolant and boost hoses, Front and rear OMP strut braces and an alloy header tank. Skint as foooooooooook tho mate!!! lol Its always the way i guess

Re: Rolling Road Today At 4pm

right been back to the rolling road today and they set my boost to 18 psi and ran just under 170bhp. my engine spec will easily get me to 200+bhp but i need a full alloy/bigger cored intercooler, bigger downpipe(3"), a 3" exhaust system as im getting too much restriction at the moment, some bigger injectors (saab 9000 turbo jobbies will do) and the throttle butterfly area boring out a little and a bigger butterfly fitted. with this i should see over 200bhp still at 18 psi! then i can wind it up a little more to 21 and see what i get then!!
