Thanks to GDI/AWT

[lucky]

Just saying a big thanks to the guys at GDI and AWT for the recent throttle body conversion on my car along with the other bits and pieces.

The car made 222 bhp and 178 ft/lbs torque - it flies!!

Vids to follow soon.

Cheers

Carl.

You 'lucky' b*****d! LoL

Good choice though - is this the one that GDI were surprised made so much torque?

 

[Dash]

Sounds great.

I'll keep my eyes peeled on the media forum.

no that one was a non TB conversion

 

[Andy GDI]

we were suprised with the bhp though, and its running a sports cat... took a while to get right with the mapping etc....

 

[BenR]

Yup, very surprised, worked out great......you got a stormer, power and torque is just so linear.

I take it yours was the Blue one at GDI last week?

 

[haitch]

nice power hike, what else did you have done? pics/vids!

 

[patty]

impressive!!

 

[JonnyK]

no that one was a non TB conversion

sounds like mine!

 

[Dash]

Got loads of pics of this conversion work yet?

 

[Andy GDI]

yeees!

 

[lucky]

Yeah mine probably was the blue 172, it was in for a couple of weeks. As for a price, you'd best speak to Andy or Ben regarding anything like that, all I'll say is you get what you pay for and it was worth every penny!

I'm gonna stick some pics and a couple of vids on today - in the meantime if you ask Andy nicely he might stick a couple on?

Speak soon.

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 222
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1110
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 203.21
0 - 60 (Secs) : 5.64
0 - 100 (Secs) : 13.80
60 - 100 (Secs) : 8.16
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 14.01
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 100.78
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.81
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 102.59

these figures are a wee bit slow too, as the website seem to take a couple of percent more off for the fwd loses.. so easy 5.5 to sixty muahaha

 

[Phill1978]

... or my cup with same hp

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 222
Weight without Driver (KG) : 990

again actually quicker, + once you got the required LSD you could be looking at 5 flat or even under !

Guess I'm gonna have to get the video evidence to back up these estimated figures - on a private road of course!
