I recently had the car in at MV Turbos a local garage to me (the owner has a 996 GT2) for a Durametric data log and alignment.
After fitting the plenum I wanted to check the fueling was still safe, which it is still running 1.1 bar.
John the owner took a few pics while it was in for his...
Thanks a lot :tongueout:
It had its first track outing last week in the new colour, have to say the gripper diff has made a massive difference to the car.
Im on Omex so will only take a second to raise the limiter, when we originally mapped the engine we did take it to 8000rpm but the power/cams died after 7500 so we set the limiter there. The head has one piece valves and cat cam springs so should be safe enough at 7800 for limited time.
That they would Sunny I want to try and get down to some English tracks this year but all depends on being away with work. Hopefully get my roof scoop fitted soon , as even on a cold day it heats up inside the car.
I also need at raising the rev limit up from 7500 to 7800 as I was just clipping...
Was at knockhill today and again the little clio was faultless all day
The track was slippy early in the day but towards the end there was decent grip round most of the track, but still easy to lock up going into the hairpin.
Think my best time was a 62's with a passenger , which I'm fairly...
Had the car in the dyno jet rollers at Sitech today and had the map adjusted. Looks like the engine has freed off a little since it was built/mapped, as it needed a little more fuel through out the map. But power seems to be very similar to the old 228 fly power that it made on the Dastek...
Thanks just hope it goes well on track at the weekend as will be first time its been used in anger in over 6 months.

I just took a grinder to the back of them, undid the 3 little torx screws then the inside pulls out. Also I painted the inside of the lights to save them getting stone chipped.
Im hoping to get booked onto a open pit day this weekend , so looking forward to see how the diff and steering have changed the car.
Going to try and get the car along to Sitech Racing during the week to put it on the rollers to check the fuelling is still fine , and may try and get a bit more...
Thanks I like the look they give and only takes 2 min to re fit the lights if needed.
I also got the eps sorted finally tonight looks like it has been a faulty motor from the start :( It finally died fully last week, fitted a new one tonight ( thanks STU) and now have fully working and...
