Thanks mate, glad to hear your car is going strong

 

[Andyman]

270 it was crazy fast. Cant even imagine what its gonna be like with 100+ more

Will you be running the stock gearbox still? Uprated clutch?

 

[RSTuning]

Stock gearbox and kevlar clutch

 

[Nafoff]

very interested in this, we have not yet got our copy of PFC at work so i will chase it up...

 

[Cue]

any news?

 

[RSTuning]

intercooler and pipes going on now!

 

[JD]

Just read the last couple of pages Paul, very very nice, I am back in Manc at the moment, but need to clear my house in Leeds around June time so will be popping in to see you and the car!

Cheers,

Jamie

Only just seen this thread. OMG. Car looks sweet!!! Just read everything but didn't notice what charger you're using? You're getting 400bhp from charger and major head work yes? Whats the bhp per tonne looking like?

 

[RSTuning]

So far so good, drove ok up the road and no leaks. Need to run it in now

 

[Gray]

Awesome!!!!

Boostin Yo?!?!??

 

[Nafoff]

very much looking forward to seeing this at an event/ trackday this year

Make sure you bring some air freshner. Your cars gonna stink of s**t and man fluids after a number of bodies have been for a spin lol


How long to run it in Paul?

 

[RSTuning]

Figures?

Not on the fresh build i'm afriad, not goin anywhere near the dyno yet. It needs a good drive (not thrashing) to bed the rings in and the bottom end is also reground so that will need a few steady miles.

LOL

500 miles or so. Then it will go through it's paces. New injectors are ready to go in too, the megane rs ones won't be good enough for the power this will produce!

 

[RSTuning]

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 compression compared to the last engine but IMO it's too low and has had a negetive effect on the power (same boost before made 328). It's roughly mapped to run in so we'll see what we can do when it's mapped finally.

Lets see of we can get some more boost

 

[Davis]

awsome! thats some power!

 

[Russ Rallye]

What sort of compression ratio is it running now paul, somewhere about 9:1? Are the new rods/pistons off the shelf parts or custom again? What aux/charger belt setup are you running now then, still based on the ph1 alternator with tensioner setup or something more like a cup setup? Look forward to seeing some numbers!
Russ

 

[RSTuning]

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 damaged when it was recovered back to us with no engine mount!!!!! (not pleased with that!)

The setup on the charger SHOULD double the hp pretty much so we just need to find the problem.

 

[R20 CWH]

hope the speedo lights working again - LOL

awesome weapon that, loved the passenger ride in it

 

[JD]

Nice Paul, missed out on following this since I'm not in Leeds, be good to pop up at some point and get you to map the new addition to the house hold. I'll pop you a call/text/pm over the coming weeks after NY.

Jamie

 

[Cooksport]

absolutely mental, love your work!

Keep it up!

 

[theduck]

Cant wait to see mroe progres on this

 

[RSTuning]

Me neither!

It's taxed and tested so it will be rude not to make the most of it

[Nafoff]

pleasure to meet you today sir.

sorry couldn't properly chat

 

[RSTuning]

Same to you

I'm sure there will be other opportunities to have a longer chat

 

[Nafoff]

at some point yes, i am sure. hope the day was worth while at the show.

got a sneak peak but will check around it properly sunday

 

[RSTuning]

Was a good day, I managed to get round a few places to speak to people but as ever didnt speak to everyone or collect as much info as i wanted but hey ho.

 

[RSTuning]

Some new dyno graphs here

I bottled it at 7700rpm as the engine has only done about 200 miles, it's not been mapped again to suit the higher compression (old engine was too low and didnt want to make power) Fueling is not too far out but a little lean at 5k IMO. I think we should see 340 if i go to the 8300 limiter i set!

 

[Barron]

very very impressive!!! you'll have to take me out in it again
