Few of the modded cars round here belong to you army lads, not seen a williams yet though which is a surprise as abingdons not the biggest of places. I drive a Cup ( R* CUP) so give us a wave if you see it around. rocko drives a lovely dark blue 172 which I see almost everyday! Wish they...
holiday was good although I travelled four hours on the plane for worse weather than you guys had here! I took it to powerstation as I was down that way and it needed remapping again due to a refit of my Viper. They were very helpful. Owen are good but as I was there in Cheltenham I had it...
thats ok then as was worried I paid out 200 notes and then they bought out a new one! they are nice arent they? Am well pleased with mine.
(so much so had to post a pic!)
who cares about air con and abs? I bought my Cup because it was 89kgs lighter.
Then I proceeded to slap in loads of stereo stuff thus losing my weight gain.
figures...
how much did that cost mate as at the time of fitting mine they didnt have one available? Ive got an earlier version of the CDX-M series but presume that itll still fit?
Im certainly not getting sub 2 grand quotes! Deano at Owens couldnt give me an exact price but wanted me to confirm I wanted it done first which is fair enough. I have to admit Im seriously thinking of getting something different rather than spend all this money on getting TBs? Still a...
Phillip, have you tried Owen Dev in Oxford? Although they dont have anything at present they told me its possible should I really want it? am looking at a few Gs though.
Get a pulsar GTi-R. You could pick a mint one up for about 6 grand and they are SOOOOO quick. you always get them competing at Ten of the Best and regularly getting the best times at the Pod. Expensive to maintain but class as they are Jap! and its a turbo, right up your alley!
Slugger, Ive got mine in the exact same position your looking at. Its ok but could definitely do with more air intake as it seems to struggle at low revs? Im thinking of removing a fog light to compensate as I know thats been done before. Ive also some pierced some holes in the pipe itself...
My mate at work has and I nick them off him! Still, I use http://www.sportinglife.comwww.sportinglife.com as they do predications, form and naps tables (supposed dead certs, each tipster chooses one a day) on there.
I use that as well, being a bit of an addicted gambler! Also try http://www.goodbet.co.ukwww.goodbet.co.uk and go to the tipsters link. Dennys are usually very good.
yeah, they checked it after it had been fitted as I had a few probs and did some good work. I went for it as it seemed the best of what was on offer and as you put it is is flexible for future modifications of which a few more im planning.
And thanks Fred, Ill definitely be interested in...
no I havent and its a bit late now as dont exactly know where the Unichip is to remove it nad wouldnt want to cost of setting it back up! Still, theres always the Pod in the summer and I can see if I get some good times up there?
I appreciate that and am not doubting what they said but all I can say is they did a test before and after and it had improved, a lot! I cant physically test the car myself so its a tough one to call.
1/4 miling youve got the problem of driver ability. The variables are endless on this power rating business. In summary I guess Ill get it done somewhere else and compare the two results.
This is what confuses me as im no RR expert so when someone who works with them gives me an ATW figure after its been tested and says "there you go" I believe him!
Guess theres no definitive measurement then and it all depends on which RR you go to?
Paddy, thats a very good idea to average out the three, shoud give a more accurate picture. Have only had two done but one was before the Viper and chip so not really done another since, maybe its time?
How come Nobles only gave you the fly figure as I was under the impression that was estimated?
Sorry mate, have had a few doubters so get a bit protective! Still Im hoping to go to the next RR day in the South (power engineering?) so we can all see then what Ive got.
