Back To Boost

[Hedgehog Dodger]

I have had to be pootling along in my car for the last 3/4 weeks due to a hole in my exhaust manifold, where the external wastegate bracket ripped the weld clean off!! Also an oil leak coming from the oil feed to the turbo where the pipe had split.

So no boost at all otherwise oil would spurt everywhere!

Oil pipe fixed and exhaust fixed and now its all back to normal..........its good to hear my External Wastegate screaming at me again

All I need to to is buy a strong spring/WG and crank the boost right up.....did anyone say 2.5 bar :D :D ;)

Oh no mate....only at 2bar at the moment....want to get the HKS GTII Series wategate with a 36PSI spring. I think thats the highest they do. About 2.4 bar(ish)

I went to Donny last weekend for the MR2 trackday and got bitten by the bug so am very eager to get the car to its mental limit and dump it on the track.

but the external WG might be too high for noise limits. This it rates at about 110dbs at present. I know Donny is 96/98dbs and Oulton Park is 106dbs. Might have to shove some socks in the exhaust pipe

HAHAHAHA

Thats my next move fella . TD06 with 1.5 of boost, should see me happy for about 500BHP. The 3037s hits full boost, 2 bar at 4500 revs, so not as laggy as I thought. And I get a nice kick, took a mate at work out in it the other day, only had it at 1.4 bar as it was moist ;) and he was amazed at how quick it was, he said, 'I didnt think you could get pushed back in your seat like that!'

Yeah, there are going to be some powerful MR2's there next year.

John Lane JJ (who won the RWD circuit)

Steve Cordiner

Hornsey Brothers

GTS Chris

James Bullock

Fizzy

Me

Neil Johnson

Dino (Owens)

All should be owning 10-11 sec cars, so should at least get half of them in TOTBIV next year.

Should be fun

[veilside_mr2]

apparently the TD06 is not much more laggy than a stock ct20. so its a bit like having your boost and eating it :) . thats the way i'm going in the new year i think. i'm only aiming for 450 as i think this will push the envelope of traction for a FWD car and should be enough to win the FWD catagory at TOTB.

need to wait and see what santa brings me first

[KiwiMR2]

Oh to have some NZ mr2's pulling such good times!!

Sounds like there will be a fair few up to the task of showing the Skyline boys a thing or two ;)

Dawsey, good look with the FWD at TOTB, hopefully see you there is I dont blow anything before hand. Competition should open in a couple of months so get your name down.

[dawesy]

oh i will be. should have been in this year but 1 week before i sent of my entery form 2 rods fell out with the crank and made a break for freedom through the block

LOL...final mapping test...I can see it now.

'Lets up the boost a tad!

'Yeah, more torque!'

'OK..........'

BANG

'What was that?'

'Oh that was your crank throwing 2 rods from the block.......'

DOH!!!

I have decided not to go for the TD06....I think that I would get more reponse from a T4OR with lower boost.....safer for me really.....as dont want to run 2 bar on a Turbo which rund best at 1/5/1.7 bar.

Or I might just stay with the 3037s and drop to 1.5 bar but get a MoteC M4 Pro and raise those revs to about 9500
