was quite happy with my time as a 400 bhp lcr was running 13.7 secs, and was faster than all stage 2 s3, am running Falken Fk452s all round finding them quite a good tyre for the price, really looking forward to hearing what your car will be like when finished and mapped

Cheers bud but TBH I doubt I'll ever be finished, there's always something to fiddle with, lol
13.7 is a good time for such as beast as just getting the traction will be its worst enemy.
Goes to show the true life difference between a 250 BHP car and a 400 BP car.

Get R888 tyres and you'll be knocking on the door of the 13's.

I've done 14.4 in my OEM mapped car, will be interesting to see what the car will do when mapped, I'd like to thik it would be in the 13's

for the next quarter mile action may invest in some sticky tyres to stick on some spare rims, leon cupra starfish alloys fit with spacers so may go down that route just for the front,
i would think you will definatly be in the 13s with your setup and weight loss thing is yours wont just be fast in a straight line it will go round corners very well to putting the power down yours will be a very impressive LCR when finished

Re: my platinum grey lcr santa pod video added

what like pull off in second gear like me and leave a trail of clutch smoke behind you lol its not recomended should be good day cant wait just a shame its not sooner, but will give me a chance to get a exhaust and stickeir tyres

Exhaust hey may be stage 2 aswell then

 

[harty190486]

quick update just bought my self a stainless decat for the leon hopfully help spool up and help with low down torque cant wait to get it fitted hopefully sound a bit better to without fitting a spacer there wont be any peformance related probs when a code is throw will there ie limp mode of running rich/lean and help will be gratefully recived

Thank, believe me, it goes round corners VERY well just now.
Amazing how a few choice mods can turn a car from an understeery mess to a neutral dream.

 

[harty190486]

Well a small update last weekend got a decat fitted onto the car and all i can say is what a massive difference its made, so much more responsive loads of low down torque and now running 3 degrees timing advance, even with 25 deg c outside temprature so really does fly now, the noise the exhaust makes is really nice to, also wrapped my door pillars in carbon fibre vinyl which looks really good will get some picys and a sound vid up soon

 

[harty190486]

right at the weekend i had the chance to fit my forge unos mbc i fitted this in parrelel with my n75 valve to clip the spikes and was amazed to find that the boost througout the rev range was greatly improved where as before it would spike to 1.6-1.7 and drop rapidly to 1.3 it is now set to 1.54 bar and slowly tapers off which is great, also held 0.1 bar more at red the car feels so strong and really torquey even tho it isnt spiking as much well my bum dyno thinks so, i made sure every thing was ok by logging boost timing and fueling and adjusted to suit , and this is still stage 1 cc map

002 020 115

will get some new engine bay piccys up tomorrow when its light as have a few new pieces added

Aup mate long time no speak was really easy to fit matey just t of the pipe from charge to n75 and take that to the bottom of mbc then t of the pipe from n75 to waste gate into the side of mbc then just set it up it works by bleading of excess pressure produced by n75 you will prob find it would hold boost better and have a better torque curve if spiking at 1.8 bar the car is totally diffrent to drive and can really adjust the boost to your driving style will get a piccy up when i get in from work mate defo a mod i would recomend especially if is saving rod and clutch
