Went over to Liams tonight to help him out with the williams for a bit, took him for a spin in the turbo over snake pass, mmmm twisties :twisted:

crappy camera phone pics ftw! oh and a crap attempt at speedo vid, phone kept falling over, ran of road, was uphill and round a bend when finally got a 'decent' go at it and i short shifted every gear due to the damn traffic :evil: i'll keep trying :p

Found my turbo cars suffered in the heat without a FMIC, mine would always boost harder, higher and hold longer in the cold.

lo, ah tis a decent area for snaps, just out of glossop on the woodhead pass joining road!

mine runs a chargecooler, runs fine in the hot to my mind, doesnt seem to loose excessive power, and i hate fmic's am afraid, i can see practically u need one for big power but attraction for me with chargecooler is its looks o/e from the front, no bumper hacked up etc!

no bad in the current weather matey, since i've fitted the r888 the only gear am breaking tracktion in on smooth flat road is 1st on full boost. all the rest are fine, wasnt the case with the eagles so happy with new tyres!

most recent power figure was 228bhp at 12psi back in feb, its now running just shy of 16psi so should be around 250bhp, will see next saturday at RS tuning, rr day for clio16valver.co.uk

it weighs around 900kg at a guess without driver n half a tan of fuel, but not had it weighed, just educated estimate from similar results on other cars

cheers for the comments everyone!!
