Fletch's 150k 172 Project..

[Fletcher]

That's what I thought. Is the k-tecs 438 profile? Also can you use 428s on standard ecu?

Something like that Mark. The 428s run without any probs on the standard ECU once mapped!

Things are looking Good Fletch!With cams, if your getting ITB's in the not too distant future get some aggresive profile cams. They may not run as well on standard ECU, but when you get your ITB's and management you can map them properly then make lots of POWER!

Cheers mate.

Good point, besides aggresive -lumpy cams sound great!

Well tomorrow morning the old girl is going on Surrey Rolling Road, never had it rollers before, so it will be interesting to see she is pushing out related before I add some cams, remove air con etc..

And a video courtesy of Tim (atouba) from Brands Hatch RS day last Thursday.

6.00 mins onwards shows the Fletchbus in action

 

[Christopher.]

I reckon a good solid figure from the old girl mate.

Thanks for the video Chris.

As you can see the old girl (now on 136,200) made 171.5 at SSR today. Air con removal, cams and maybe some matched inlets all coming soon!

 

[SharkyUK]

Nice one - a healthy figure to go on from! What cams are you looking to go for Fletch?

 

[mr_n]

Nice one Fletcher. As i said to chris id love to see what mine is putting out before i start on mad engine mods. Im looking at a forum day / group buy to go to a place in pomepy and get the cars weighed. Interested?

Well I am in the CS Oreca roll cage group buy, and am going to go for the race cage. Now need to decide on what colour to paint the cage. Shortlist colours.

Red
Silver
Black
Kawasaki Green?

 

[TimR26]

Good pictures

I'd go for Red or Green mate.

 

[adam172]

sweet pics and cage HAS to be green!

Looks like green is winning so far

Yeah very impressed with the pics the guys at Brands Hatch took

 

[Christopher.]

Nice pics mate, Green all the way !

 

[Joah]

Nice pics, has to be green

 

[Sir_Dave]

Personally, i'd paint the cage black Fletch, bright colours are a little bit 2010 for me ....

Good power result as well btw, these cars improve with miles i reckon

Some days I love the idea of a bright roll cage, and others I prefer the look of a subtle cage (black/silver)

Yeah the best French s**t boxes, are those on over 100k TBH :race:

....Oh and thanks for the pics you send me Mark (NorthloopCup)

 

[VeinAST]

Nice pics Fletch! I think you should do glow in the dark green for the cage

 

[NorthloopCup]

No problem mate. Hope they were of some use.

[Jay.]
