I reckon the tech pulled the dipstick and reinserted it with the graduations on the low side. Edited 05/02/17 01:23 PM by Ralph Wiggum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So after the demoralizing failure of my GTX, managed to get a replacement for the car. In another life time and not such a short deadline I would have gotten rid of the low mount setup etc and gone to high mount, no real budget and time meant like for like footprint was found - GTX3582R Car all sorted and running, it was off for the big wkend, primer convoy away Accommodation was all sorted by Steve (who I must say has the fanciest driving shirts around) Cars made it all in one piece Couple of shots from over the wkend @IH8TOADS and some weird Lurker @Uberxr Seeing Double Some unicorns and a unicorn hunter Fastest NA F6 in the Country @Ralph Wiggum All in all a fantastic wkend with a brilliant bunch of *beep*, looking forward to next year already. The cars made it through and there was no major destruction which is a great way to end a wkend Racing. Topped off being driven home in the Support Vehicle from Hell This took all the gear did countless runs back and forth and even managed to let a single spinner go, could not have asked for anything more from the Daily Wiggum Bus Edited 08/03/17 08:27 AM by turboknapp 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have made a fortune walking the carpark with his laptop doing log runs and tune touch ups. The Gen 2 is good, we didn't really have it working super hard and unfortunately didn't get a chance to test out the aggressive tune. Seeing 17.5psi at 2950, eboost was saying peak was 19.4. This was with bout 17 degrees timing. Dyno read 500hp, but it felt like it was pulling more. Need to get the engine finished, when that is done with cams etc will make some difference and will be really able to lean on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
