Cool, no worries. By the way, isn't it bwarp? :clown:

Good work Russ! Did you get the loom organised in the end? I forgot to check.... :o

It's something to do with emissions iirc. There is a delay on full throttle with the fby system, but it can be altered with mapping, if you really wanted you could have a binary throttle.

If you are still finding the back lively, firm up the front and it will tend more towards understeer.

Definately soften the dampers off and try running slightly lower tyre pressures too.

Ah, ok. So still no clue to what's going on with it then?

So 200 is fooking high then? Likely to be relevant?

200ish then. What's standard Fred?

The main issue there is that the person who fitted them did so without any timing data. Newman will sell you the cams, but they aren't v6 specific. The other question I suppose is how the power graphs were produced? Otherwise, I've always heard good things about Newman.

I didn't know that! The only way I've seen it done is with a machine. I'll go and have a look.

It's not always the answer to be honest. Most coils use standard diameter springs, you can get different rates from any decent motorsport place. Only problem is knowing the rates of the original springs.

Cool. Ta. I'm after some slicks sooner or later, but sod paying what avon or kumho want!

how much are those?

Is there any other size?

Agreed, I know people slate them on here but I've never had a problem with them. The best I've used were yoko A006t's but good luck getting them at a sensible price!

Really? What else is going on there? I'm actually interested. That was what they were both trying to say though.

Was that malmesbury?

I think you are both making the same point. As in the ratio won't change. for more power you will have more losses, but it will still be the same scale.

That's what I mean. It doesn't make sense! I'm meaning the 422's need verniers, I think the 428's should be fine on normal pulleys. Hopefully Cat can shed some light.

Fair enough. So probably not worth worrying about then.

Really? What is it about mallory that causes it?

I have to say, I'm very interested to know what is actually going on with this car.. My engine has 422's and no vvt, but I'm sure the cams are specifically non vvt. They also need verniers to time correctly. As far as I know the 428's should use the oem specs.

I think I remember burp having trouble with fuel starvation, so if you're tracking it, a swirl tank could be worth looking at.

You're saying that the difference between fly and wheel is the trans losses, and is completely seperate to the map? Makes sense to me.

http://www.catcams.be/800x600/mainframe.htm?english 428's was it? Matt, I think they use the standard timing, but I'm not 100% Good to see that you seem to be making a real effort to get this sorted!

not too bad then really. When you email kw you should ask for a price on the clubsport stuff. Price wise i'd expect it to be similar to the ast's but it's based on the kw competition kit.

Out of interest, how much are the AST's you are looking at?

I'm pretty sure the konigsports are the only ones using koni inserts, at least that used to be the case with their vw stuff.

All the variants of 1*2's will cost a similar amount to track prep. The only thing I will say is that a 182 cup has a more limited choice when it comes to suspension (unless you are buying serious kit) as they have a different bolt spacing on the hubs.

I'm not sure about it, but it would look awesome as a race car!
