RE: My other car, Evo content! Rolling Road Result - adam b - 11-05-2015
Do you do the MLR Sprint series? If so I'll come and say hello as we are at five this year with work (Litchfield).
RE: My other car, Evo content! Rolling Road Result - paulgtt - 14-05-2015
No mate, I did look into it but a bit expensive for more at the moment.
I did the Toyota Sprint Series a couple of years ago and that was good fun

Iv also been in touch with MG Autos about the boost dropping off and they've recommended an uprated actuator, run the 3 port boost solenoid off the ecu rather than the ebc and a remap, should hopefully break over the 400bhp barrier with that, 420 has been suggested
Might need some more numbers on this then!

RE: My other car, Evo content! - paulgtt - 19-07-2015
Just got the car back from having it's few little tweeks done.....
......it's f**king rapid now!!
It's had an uprated turbosmart actuator, new 3 port boost solenoid and a remap.
I don't know the actually figure it's putting out as it was road mapped but Mat at MG Autos (guy who mapped it) said it should easily be into the 400's.
Iv been having a few issues loosing power up the rev range but now it's solid all the way to the redline, got to be very quick on the gears now lol!
Whilst it was in having the work done they have the car a thorough inspection and the knocking noise that I mentioned earlier in the thread has been pin pointed to the rear coilovers and not the rear diff as previously suggested.
So bad news more money needs spending but good news that I can get some shiny new suspension
Few pics from today at Parson Drove show

It was wet on the trip there and had a bit of a "moment" coming off a roundabout and sticking the boot down in 2nd gear, the car went sideways, first time its ever gone that far round anyway. Apparently it looked quite cool from inside the Clio lol! I need to be more awake with this thing now
Double checked the read out on the Gizzmo controller and I'd hit 2.08bar boost! Spoke to my mapper when I got home and he said that the car actually holds solid at 1.9bar, he had come across this whilst mapping and has said that the controller does slightly overread and its nothing to worry about.
Next thing on the list is a trip to Santa Pod on the 9th August for a RWYB to see what this can really do
RE: My other car, Evo content! - paulgtt - 09-08-2015
Went to a RWYB at Santa Pod today, first time Iv taken the Evo on the strip, father inlaw came to in his Impreza Turbo 2000, first time he's ever been and last time I went was 5 years ago in the old ST205!
Managed to get 10 runs in as it wasn't overly busy considering the weather was nice - re:hot!
First run was just a test run as Iv not had the car flat out in the higher gears since it had the new actuator and remap, so let it roll a few feet and then floored it, result 14.16 @ 104mph but still left the Audi A3 2.0 TDI for dead in the other lane
The next 5 runs were high to mid 13's as I started to try to launch it but was getting nowhere with bogging down mostly (I knew i'd be a bit rusty at launching but didn't think i'd be this bad!)
After the lunch break I decided to break out the secret weapon, launch control never really used this properely before but had to do something to improve!
And it worked! 12.85 @ 110mph! Still got a bit of bogging but nowhere near as much,it was just a question of not lighting up the rear tyres now!
The following run was an even better start but missed 3rd gear which cost me a couple of tenths.
Penultimate run was the best start of the day but I had to change up into 5th before the line else I would of been bouncing off the limiter!
The last run was quickest of the day, 12.75 @ 108, not quite as quick off the line as the previous run but because of this I could just get away with almost maxing out in 4th over the line, was on 7.5k rpm,redlines at 7k and have no idea where the limiter is but wasn't going to push my luck too much.
The guy in the yellow Mustang GT500 Supercharger looked a bit bemused as an 18 year old Mitsubishi was running side by side down the strip on the last run! He beat me over the line by half a car length, not bad considering he had twice the capacity, twice the cylinders, considerable more power and drag slicks on the back!
Heres the timing slip

and matey boy's 'stang lol

I do have an onboard video too but no matter what I try I can't get it to upload!
We are looking at going again towards the end of the year, the heat was sapping performance but at least the track was sticky!
And im going to be checking what gearbox I actually have as it seems ever so short ratio'd, 110mph redline in 4th? Maybe its an RS 'box....heres hoping!

nice results at the drag
those lights are nice.
thoughts on another dyno run??
RE: My other car, Evo content! 1/4 mile action - paulgtt - 05-09-2015
Thanks mate
Yeah looking at another dyno run later this year, going back to nobles so at least it should be a fair comparison
RE: My other car, Evo content! 1/4 mile action - maxzy - 05-09-2015
This is the one of my dream car !
Cool & Tidy Looking !
RE: My other car, Evo content! 1/4 mile action - paulgtt - 09-09-2015
