Defo not gonna be coming dude, not enough fuel sorrwie Sad





Well I've had her out for a few pics and driven about 10 miles

The clutch isn't half as bad as expected. I defo need the tracking done as I've put on 2 new TREs. The mid box is vibrating on the underside of the car and the front section needs tightening up but it feels like the exhaust is restricting it badly as its just gutless past 3000rpm even though its holding its boost at 1Bar till well past 4000rpm.

The scan gauge is showing 86bhp but I know from testing that its 8% out so its actually making about 93bhp although with a de-cat, a less restrictive turbo and a FMIC I'd expect just a little more possibly just over the 100bhp mark.

Anyway I cant wait to have a map put on it and ill be a very happy bunny.


Pics and a video later, cant wait for ace on Monday Smile

When does the turbo make boost?

The lack of power over 3k is probably down to injectors i think, has been like that since i had it, changing the maf didn't make a difference.

Tracking you can do yourself with a couple of bits of string, some axle stands and a set of calipers, be easy now they're already loose. Wink

Please elaborate on this lol

Just google the string method, loads of American rednecks do it.


RE: Dum-Dum's Transsexual HDi Roadster - HE/SHE RUNS!!! :D - Dum-Dum - 15-06-2013

TBH I understand the string method, and I never thought Id catch myself saying this, but its a bit pikey aint it.

What was that Chris?

A bit pikey?

Fook me, that's rich coming from someone who used a cake as a hammer.

I did it on the tank and it's holding up ok, certainly doesnt handle weirdly any more.

Your "bit pikey" =/= my "bit pikey" lmao

This ^^^


That said if you done it and it worked on the tank then its all good.
Might have a bash at it tomorrow.
1mm toe in aint it.

Out of interest, does it sit any different height wise??


RE: Dum-Dum's Transsexual HDi Roadster - HE/SHE RUNS!!! :D - Piggy - 15-06-2013

I learnt the string method while using a hugely expensive laser system...

used it ever since...then taken it to places that do a 'only charge if need to adjust'...watched the figures so they cant do me over and its always been spot on

Heh, back in a HDi where you belong. The black one never should of been sold.


RE: Dum-Dum's Transsexual HDi Roadster - HE/SHE RUNS!!! :D - Poodle - 16-06-2013

The string method was what i used before i had free access to tracking at work, tracked it at work and was under 0.5 degrees out from what i was aiming for originally, that's good enough in my eyes. 1 degree toe in (per side, so 2 degrees total) is manufacturer spec, it's to promote understeer in poor grip conditions. I'd suggest 0 degrees - i reckon you'll find the handling a bit more pleasing and it will also bring minute benefits in mpg and tyre wear.

Looks like it's all working mate, nice! When does it hit full boost?
