Well what can I say, after my car ate it's nice quality BGA head gasket due to detonation me using wrong fuel!
Car was delivered to the lord where he discovered that the timing was just ludicrously miles out! Gaz spent hours tinkering with my timing in the workshop a few degrees here few there.....anal ain't the word!
So went to pick the car up after it's been fettled!
First impressions was.... Wow it's clean!....then took it for a drive! Firstly my skuttle induction is loud! Very loud! It wasn't like that before! Then there was a usable amount of lower in places I e never had it! Like below 2k!
But as we didn't know if the eni g was detonating we didn't "really" push her!
Next day we drove to Kj16, well what can I say! What a genuinely nice guy! Very enthusiastic about his work!
We took the car straight to the rolling road and ran it up with the very random chip I was using! Kj put some det cans on and had a good listen! No detonation....good times!
Did 4-5 runs on the rollers, each within a fraction of a horse power!
180bhp
143lbs ft
147@ wheels
But the AFR was all over the place running lean low down then rich up top!
Then it was down to kj16v, wired up a wideband and his detcans and ecu emulator and took to the road.....with gaz who was just itching to see what was involved with mapping the stock ecu!
After cleaning up the afr kj set about tweaking the map! After a few hours I was presented with my car for a test......gaz was smiling so thought ok!!!
We don't have an after printout but.....
WOW! Really wow!
Car is just incredible! There is usable power just everywhere! Then it gets to 4.5k and goes nuts! And pulls Hard right to the end if the revrange!
2krpm to 4krpm is also vastly different!
Gaz kept telling me this is what my car always should of been! And now Against JGX his itb'd monster that used to disappear into the distance against my car, it now still gets away from a rolling start but I'm much closer to him than I used to be! (8 car lenghths instead of 4 miles lol)
As it happens we went to the 519 automotive openday, where Danny failed to save me some paddy sausage! So I took my revenge unplugging sensors on paddies car :-p
Gave my car to (sideways)Danny for a spin....and he was gone.......a while! He was also very impressed with KJs mapping! But obviously reminded me that cars suspension needs tweaking lol!
So overall result is great! Very very happy!
Kj and Cliolord have changed my car! It's savage!
If you have a stock ecu kj is your man without any doubt!
And we all know cars touched by the lord are special!
Its the car it always should of been Guys.. so thank you lots and lots!
Epically Brutally Savagely Uprated!
