So after 3 weeks i finally have the car back! And HOLY **** its quick. The new tune has completly changed the car, its much more drivable, smoother and most of all faster
The car had countless hours spent on it on the dyno setting up the idle, relocating the air temp senser into the inlet manifold, re-route the boost controller to suit an external wastegate, and most importantly playing with the adjustible cam gears. We picked up 40kws in the midrange by playing with the exhaust cam
inlet suprisingly didnt gain much so it was left the way i set it when i built it.With the cams now adjusted it has alot of overlap, and idle is set at a wicked 1200rpm
Boost is set at 23psi which is what the tuner felt was safe without being too silly as im still using 98RON pump fuel. Being a car i drive everyday and everywhere i really need the reliability.
Next stage would be to turn the car into a weekend only car and go ID2000 injectors, surgetank and another bosch 044 and new fuel lines and run E85, which the tuner said will push 350+kws on a bit more boost. But thats wayyy in the future
