Back in the game!

I set them in the summer on a hot day (RS day at Oulton) and since then I've only checked hot temperatures so the difference in winter may well be higher.

Sills are shagged

Nice to see a trophy being used properly!

The hi spec 300mm kit is pretty much the same (same callipers and pad size) but with 300mm rotors. I've got a Gen90 ecu for sale if you want something plug and play.

I'm not knocking gaz, but imo the golds are a lot of money for what is still a damper with budget internals.

Any reason for going for gaz gold over some ast sportline 1? Also 650lb is 110nm, so I suppose you won't use it on the road again, unless you don't anyway.

Had a few good sessions in it at Oulton Park on Friday. Beat my previous best wet lap by 5 seconds but nearly had a moment doing a ton going into druids. Yesterday I started taking bits off it to put onto the Cup. Kind of a bittersweet moment knowing how well it went on Friday but hopefully...

It's a load of profiled bits of steel you have to weld onto the beam. The brake pipe bracket needs repositioning too.

I take mine to Buckley Tyres. Its £29 for toe and £49 for camber/caster on the front so similar prices to where Paul goes. My settings are front 3 degrees negative camber, 3.3 degrees positive caster, 20 minutes toe out. On the rear its 1.8 degrees negative camber and parallel toe. I used to...

I haven't tried them on track, only on the road. But they seem to have stiffer sidewalls than the Federals so I'd try 30PSI cold like the AD08R.

I run my AD08R at 30PSI cold, once up to temp they get to around 32-33PSI hot. The RSR I found need a bit more pressure than the AD08, try them around 31-32 cold

Why not get a Gen90? Its plug and play so no wiring needed and it keeps all of the dash lights off.

Yeah that's it, no point if it's no fun. It's parked up next to my cup now so I can strip the parts off to swap over. Yours sounded good going down the pit straight

Ahh yours was the Monaco. Ph1 has itbs, cams, quaife diff, asts and some other bits.

That was me! Which Clio were you in? I saw a black ph2 in a garage I thought might be you but you weren't around to say hi.

I got one the same day!

Fair play, they're very nice figures and its good to see the manifold adding around 10lbft either side of the previous peak torque figure and more top end. Looking at your graph the manifold might even help mine out top end.

Get an adjustable recirculation dump valve, you can tweak the dump/chatter to suit then

Dotted lines before the pms manifold and solid lines after? Can't see the rpm, does it peak at 7500ish?

It didn't drone on the Cup but that had a cat fitted so hopefully that'll sort it for you.

Good tool kits for the money, can't complain about them at all. Shame about the air filter plate, I'd be fuming!

Is it that high due to lacking vvt?

I've been looking at the usual 422/423 but I've also been considering using a 197/200 dephaser with catcams 404 and mapping in the continuous vvt control

Some longer trumpets might help your torque no end, those Titans look really short. The 423s have a peak torque band from about 4.5-7k RPM so short trumpets won't gain you anything there.

Interested to see how you get on without the VVT. I'm debating what to do with my forged engine, would be a waste not putting some BIG cams in down the line.

Is the Yozza better than the Oreca?

Go to a scrap yard or look on ebay for a Mondeo master cylinder. Guarantee you you'll find some cheap or for free. Otherwise you've got the cost of the bias valve and all the pipes and fittings.

Run one of these on each brake line straight off the master cylinder http://www.fordpartsuk.com/shop/ford_mondeo_brake_pressure_reducing_valve___f_1113008_c_806.htm I got mine for free though from a freind with a spare mondeo master cylinder.

I just run Ford in line pressure reducers from the master cylinder to the rear lines. Feels perfect. If you want it adjustable then I would tee both rear lines into one bias valve with 1/4" diameter fittings (its about the same as 2x 3/16" fittings so you don't restrict anything). Then 1/4"...
