    Renault 5 GT turbo race car

    Totally sucks, but as Tony says could have been worse if out on track.

    Well some have had great results with the JMS i lets with 197 cams, however just look at russ, standard engine with 421s and a good map... When I first had my car corner weighted and set up I was laughing how great it was, You could easily get the rear end out and hold it it was that well...

    Tbh The set up seems fine mid race which would just indicate that the tyres are the main cause (an incorrect driver input) i will keep it as it is for Castle Combe and get the car geo'd and corner weighted and take it from there. Im wondering if my rear beam has gone out of allingment, changing...

    I ran R888 all last season in 195 spec and was great however they do go off quickly however that would depend on driving style/and geo I guess. Yes it seemed I did, however on some of the straights we was pretty matched, I suppose its the Gripper and 13/58CW thats giving me the extra...

    Hahahah well, yes even Ktec admitted the product falls apart inside after a few years use and have had this problem before, they covered the postage.... I kicked up a fuss but what more could I do. Yep the manifold should hopefully give me a few more ponies.

Power was around 225bhp /175lb however that was limited to 7450rmp, should be around 230bhp now the limiter problem has been rectified, I will be getting the cold mapping put onto it over the winter along with the PMS...

Few weeks back I sent my Gen90 off to Gems for diagnosis and repair, it was found that a R55 resistor had blown causing the interference to the CPS wires at high rpm. £110 later and the unit was sent back, iv not had time to run it up into the problem area but have been assured...

    Scott's road to Tricolore Trophy

    Well you need the epas column (both parts), the ECU box that connects to it. On ebay you need the wiring/dial pack, some 8awg wire (live and earth) a few feet of each and a 4pk belt job done, if you dont have a cup them you will need more parts.
