rolling road

car gets mapped for the first time on monday. im the first uk owner and have had her 10 years. its never been on rollers. not sure what to expect. going to a tune and slight advance in timing. cars running good at the moment. hope nothing goes wrong on the rollers causing abort

About best thing can do really is get it on rollers and proper checked mapped. regardless of power result it best thing you can do for long term reliability.
So what ecu you using.
Always chance of something being found causing a tune to be aborted or not reaching the goal but that just way it is with a 20yr+ car unless you really go to town checking & updating a few things.
Good chance it will be fine if seems healthy & being a proper owner of 10years plus means you know that car well.
Hope goes well & get a happy result.

ive got a blitz ecu but wont be using that yet. im going to have it on standard ecu. good thing about these are they run rich. thanks for the reasurance

not too good today. car not wanting to take more than 235.7hp
was looking for around the 275hp mark. turbo seems fone. vacum pipes may be shot or positioned incorrectly. stripping everything down including the boost controller down. hopefully get a result before 4.30 or the car stays there.
stock tubby. stock injectors . 3inch exhaust and tubby elbow.

Correct me if im wrong but I'm sure that's sounds about right if everything is stock and running 0.7 bar mine on the rr day made about that stock everything except induction and exhaust

ran it at 0.9

just made 287hp.

reckon we couldve got another 30 but thats enough for today. buzzing

Bet it makes a big difference to how it drives now?!

What made the difference?

dodgy vaccum connections
bad plugs then air/feul mixture then not taking the 1 bar loop
we had to rip the profec b our and re plumb into system.

Ahh 0.9 well done fella

Pretty much what I got with 0.9 bar,mine made 289 bhp

apperently he almost killed himself as the breaks wernt holding the power. hopefully gazed pads. will have to bench them. really happy with that result.

Good to here all worked out well.
brake overhaul not expensive or little bigger upgrade new/used could be option if you not happy with them.

ive always wanted to do a conversion with breaks. ie put some porsche calipers on it. not sure if its been done

It has but i am not sure of the details. Up to a point and this is a broad statement any caliper will work if you fab the right bracket up

im sure anything is possible, they would squeeze behind some 17s i think.
just get the bells made etc
