It was a terrible dyno session When I saw we could not tune over 0.6 bar so didn't worry about videos lol..

Been a while since I did any update. I did some rear bushing and braced rear end. I also got the ecf-1 kit to tune for flex fuel which should happen next week.

Saw a turbo techno e36 sedan coming past my work yesterday, no bumper big intercooler hanging out the front.. it looked sick, not nearly as clean as yours, safe to say you have an ugly twin lurking around JHB

I'm using the stock ecu with unichip for now. I'm going to go with fueltech ft500 next year:cartel:

We finally put the car on the dyno today for the first session of mapping..our aim was to boost till 1bar on pump fuel with water methanol..unfortunately the boost solenoid could not handle the pressure of the dual wastegates and only could get boost to a maximum of 0.64bar to be exact on the eboost and didn't switch watermeth on. The spool on this turbo is unbelievable..it comes on so quick but also progressively with the rpm enough to sprain your neck even on low boost.

also got a fuel pump speed controller installed to keep fuel cooler for street driving. Switchs to control fuel pump and water methanol aswel as boost control switch for boost per gear for now.

Got it to dyno on flex fuel and managed to put down 600whp on 1.1bar boost and o degrees timing still and no water methanol as we had a problem with jet on dyno.. Anymore boost and the car was spinning off.
