Bedford meet anyone???



  Ph1 172, Mi16,MPS
Evening guys, there seems to be quite a few local members on here so why don't we have a meet??
Just a thought, would be good to meet local members.

Flol! Scotty boi has had this trouble before. I'd probably be up for it it's probably about time for another. Although we should be having EoE meets closer to us soon now a few more members have materialsed from our area

Yea I believe the EoE meet will be towards our way in April some time.

I was going to set up another meet soon. Was just waiting for a bit of decent weather. As the last one was bloody cold.
I'm quite happy to allow to you arrange this one mate. As it is a pain in the arse trying to get numbers up!
 
  DON'T SEND ME PM'S!!
LOL, I get more of you turning up here early evenings, 3-4 nights a week than will commit to a meet

Nice, shall we say a Sunday afternoon/evening meet then?
Get the word out! And we'll establish some numbers.

There's a nice new brewers fair nearly finished near me, just off the A421 Bedford southern bypass, just outside Kempston. Should be open in a couple of weeks. It's got a great big car park too :)
I'll keep you guys informed when it opens.

At least I could walk over and get pissed though. :p

Lol the last EoE meet proved you shouldn't underestimate how busy a pub can be. Ended up moving on it was so busy

I may be completely wrong, but going on the fact that you have a Mazda 6 mps I'd say that you were the bloke I spoke to at dans workshop when I went to try and see him one weekend when he wasn't there (I was in an mx5)?

Brought a clio turbo 2 months ago. Pulled all the bits I wanted off it and put it in mine.

It came with a standard ecu that had been mapped by ktec. Plugged it all in and it worked fine although the boost gauge showed it at 15psi. Used a rstuner to reset all the fault codes and then the fun began.

It tends to idle at 3-4k until its driven then it settles to just below the 1k mark. It had been ok for a few starts but started doing its 3k rev again, again fine after a short distance.

The second issue is on boost over 8 psi it misfires which I believe is down to the ecu deceting it detting and messing with the timing.

So the plan is to test the boost gauge to see if its acurate. If it is then I need to turn the boost down to 10-12 for the time being.

Also need to get omex on it really and get it mapped properly. It hasnt done massive mileage with it like this only 30 miles max testing it

Brewers fayre could be a good shout. Just been in there. Is really nice. Plenty of bar seating area.
So don't need to be in amongst the diners!
 
  Ph1 172 (titanium)
It opens fully tomorrow!
Last week was a practice week. We managed to get in.
Box end is still always a good shout because of the ample parking.
And plenty to look at when the weather picks up ;)

Its the k-tec stealth but had the tip removed and another added so now not stealth :)
Was twice as loud but the cat's back on now!
