i put in this weight for a reason....i was driving with a passenger and a full tank of fuel.

yeh, im sure that it isnt far off...(altho 125kw only equates to around 168hp). Iv only got very light breathing mods mate; panel filter w/CAF, cat back stainless system and a grp N (generic) map. it is just good fun to use and obviously shouldnt be thort of as a professional piece of engine...

yeh he has told me it is 50euros to do custom map. btw i just went out and used the data logger to see power and torque values - they seemed to be a bit vague ie. in 5th gear from around 1500rpm with WOT the torqu figure was 360Nm....this cannot be right. however i got some more believable...

iv got this kit also, and have seen that there is a new update for the RS Tuner (1.51). when i follow the link on the site to download it gives me "R Tuner" 1.51.....not "RS Tuner" 1.51..??? is this the right thing or not?

website??

wot is the R-Sport kit?????

the drivability of the car is completely transformed rather than huge power gains.,he told me that a cable TB with standalone trounced a normal electric TB ph2. throttle response also improves a hell ofalot. yeh the cams as well would def be better

having been down the GDI i spoke to Mark about tuning the F4R to get a little more power.... getting rid of the flybywire throttle body was one of the better options according to him. If i was to go back to cable would it be possible to use a ph1 ECU or would an OMEX/MOTEC standalone be...

i saved the image from a website but cant remember what one, or the details about the TB's and fuel rail etc etc. anyone know?

cheers mate

u could still get away with 195 profiles though? not liking the idea of using spacers...im guessing they wuld need them

anyone know what the deal is with these wheels that k-tec stock....? the offset is 40 and the width is only 6.5". will there be clearance issues?

just to show the difference....actual: ideal:

yes i have been reading up on it and it seems that wot uv said is the general rule....for road cars in any case. i think this system can be reversed on proper race cars ie F1, F3000 etc but as a general rule it seems sound enough. Theres just so many variables that couls sway the rule this way...

haha cheers mate, altho i feel i should admit the pic in the avatar is not what my car looks like - its a photoshop:rolleyes: ! Its not that low and the wheels aint anthracite! but apart from that.... lol! yeh i keep it here but have suffered a few bumps due to d***head cyclists dropping their...

yeh brookes mate...you? yeh the whole thing of trying to relate it/visualise what the car will do under these conditions is what im struggling with

ermm..well thered be a lot less weight transfer, but the loads would still be shifting about. if the loads on the front wheels are greater than rear the back end is going to slide out yeh? obviously zero weight transfer is what u want but thats just impossible (make ur CoG 1mm off the deck and u...

the car we have been given data for is the Formula Student car so its RWD mid engine short wheelbase...set new record of 1.41 G round the circuit!

does anyone know a bit about wheel reactions with regard to suspension geometry and roll bar stiffness etc?? im doing some work at uni which involves discussing how the addition of arb's effects the loads on the 4 wheels resulting in either understeer/oversteer characterisics. iv found that...

ok thats not too bad..il tell them to do it with everything else.

is it worth getting the water pump changed with a cambelt change...i hav heard it is a must by some ppl and that its personal preference by others?? how much are they and whats the part number if anyone knows? cheers
