Andy, the low down on yours was totally different to what had been seen with other 428's. Thats not a normal pattern for them although i have to admit your pipers seemed to do the trick!
We could do it cheaper but this includes nearly £900 (ex vat) worth of radiator, fan, cooler and oil cooler combo.
My own car is running with a modified stock rad and universal forge intercooler which would cut costs but not look/perform as good.
This is the decision we took on our kit as it...
It's supposed to 9:1 but the gasket used has probably taken it closer to 8.5:1 and for the lack of low down boost is too low IMO. It's running similar to the kit we do on stock tensioner but the belt run is slightly different on mine, i need a shorter belt and new bottom idler because it was...
Well we've finally had time to get this running again but for some reason she's not making boost, we think it's slipping the belt as i have a slightly different setup compared to before. It's running 282hp at the moment with only 0.7 bar so not too shy just not quite 300+
Dropped the...
Even if he does, it's not an AW customer, i am the only one so far to have stock of the new alloy front end that i had to work hard to get them perfect! I'm sorry you have paid ben for something but that's not my issue although i honestly do feel for you as i never realised you'd paid anything...
Andy, Danny clearly has issues with me so it's time to get to the bottom of it.
Its always related to GDI and staff/customers so lets have it out. Who has said what and when, will be an interesting one this because so far nobody had actually said ANYTHING.
If i'm so bad at mapping why the...
The HP figures are NOT wrong due to the roller tacho. On the DD the only affected number displayed is flywheel torque. This is something in shootout and it's been proven time and time again. I can leave the same roller ratio and run the car in 3rd or 4th and the power will be within a couple of HP.

When tuning for every last horse then yes maybe but for this car and this setup this is the afr I mapped. You do. Like that and that's fine but quit the BS about washing bores. It needs to be way richer to do that. Next time I'll think power power...
Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172
Best call renault and tell them they cant map then because the megane runs 10.5:1
You will NEVER get bore wash at that. Yes there is a limit like anything but 10.5-11 is not it!
Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172
Oh sorry my bad
There's a reason it's rich and it's staying that way. Thanks for your helpful comments though.
Can take it yes, but not easily. Seen so many standard bottom ends fail with various issues including rings, throwing rods and broken pistons. These have been totally stock standard with NO mods at all.
11:1 and boost is never going to be THAT reliable.
