Fancy a dual on ur buell? lol, im guessing u have one?
Well I can tell you now i overtook him, unless he let off but it didnt sound like it! it was a rolling start from about 40mph
I will load a graph up in my new thread once paul has re-dynoed it after the proper filter set up is on! I am going to put a new thread up today with some proper photographs all taken at trax when the car was minted and cleaned!
I ran a 5.9 with no stripping and loadsa bags of food n drink etc etc....lol
I just couldnt get traction though coz my tyres are f**ked and they wouldnt let me warm them up (although other people were doing it all day)! I reckon I could have got into the early 5's or even late 4's with some...
Pauls dad did my cambelt too last week. My insurance is an extra £200 per year with Adrian flux. It went from £600 to £800! I think that's a good price!
The charger runs quiet yes, but the chatter on gear change is mental, aswell as the engine note sounds awesome! Il get some vids up soon!
lol, the guy in the 300bhp wanted to know why I made his car look like a 1.2! Also a guy on a Buell motorbike wondered why he couldn't keep up with on a...
If you look in the 2nd picture down you can JUST see the bottom of it through the lower grille on the drivers side (next to the intercooler). I will get alot more detailed pics tomorrow matey, youll see it then.
Oh yes, no comparison! It really is awesome. Sounds like a completely different car too, the power is just immense! A 300bhp focus ST had a go with me today - to be blunt he got his arse handed to him!
cant really tell yet tbh, havnt driven it steady much since getting it back, its just too much fun to drive slow! I put £20 of v-power in last night and its done 75 miles so far but needs some more in now. I reckon driven steady you will see similar mpg to the standard car.
Not the best pics in the world, well to be fair there crap!!! I had just got the car back from RS Tuning and it was still dirty etc....
The car needed a good valet, and engine bay spruce up and clean! Also the fuel rail guard isnt on in these pics, that was re-fitted this afternoon after the...
If you guys look in the media ection in about 10 mins im gunna put some quick snaps up that I took today, nothing special cos the car was still dirty but im sure a few people wanna see it!? Il prob get some better snaps tomorrow at TRAX
power delivery is really smooth, pulls all the way through, coz its not a turbo you get no lag whatsoever. When it hits about 5 grand where the stock engine kicks in it really throws you back in the seat! power is on tap, whatever gear your in!
Also I have been that busy today messing with other things that I havnt had time to take any pics or vids. Im going to TRAX tomorrow so some of you may see me there? If not il have some up sometime in the week!
Yeah this kit is just out of development as franx mentioned, my cars all done now just running a temporary air filter for now until ITG deliver the proper one next week. It has taken a while for mine to be done, parts were under development for about 5 months for my car and my car has been down...
I arnt sure on a DIY kit Russ, youll have to speak to him. I cant se why not!
Il try and get some pics and a few videos up today at some point, probs more likely to be tonight by the time I will get chance to upload them.
No pics as yet, just got the car back today! Some will follow soon.
I have to say though the car is awsome! Pulls perfect, runs perfect etc....
I am very very impressed with it, by far the quickest thing I have ever driven! Really pins you in your seat in every gear, 250bhp 200lbft. The power...
Yeah but you dont get nowhere near 250bhp! Id rather pay an extra £1000 for a supercharger. ITB'S sound awesome but just doesnt compare to the sound the engine makes with the charger, you have to hear it to believe it!
How much did you expect it to be when the charger alone is £1750!
Pauls...
Mines ready to collect tomorrow, from RS Tuning! Look out for the videos! Ring Paul and chat to him, he can do both, supercharger is the way forward though, and Paul can get it all in for roughly the same price as a Turbo conversion!
Tomorrow, its still needs fine tuning and a few bits and bobs. Il be using pauls filter for now until mine comes next week and I need to get a radiator bracket tomorrow and a breather filter etc etc.... Just a case of piecing together the last few bits to get it ready for TRAX.
God the car is awesome, Paul took me for a spin today, sounds amazing! very very quick and it was just spinning in the rain so couldnt even tell how quick it was tbh! I located the battery in the boot today took me 5 hours!!! Will be loving the cruise to TRAX!
