I'll take it to work with me one day this week and have a look for the dry joint I suspect with the electron microscope

Nice one pal.
NEARLY had me a mint ph3 moonstone 3dr shell for tiny amount of money this week...was nearly guna be a reshell day!!! Hey ho. Maybe for the best. After the GTB is all done....only real mod I be looking at is a reshell...and I did say it would need to be a Cherry Red 3dr. Hmmm.
Anyway....someone may have perhaps found a inlet not made of plastic and may have struck a deal with someone for perhaps more money than its worth..........woops and yay at the same time!!!

With the 206 now...once XUD'd it will be the daily for me and the mrs other than a day every other week when I need to tow a trailer.
So it may be more of a toy soon....scope for something nice...like a mint shell

Hi, a question, as your meter is EMP?
As there are many to sell, and less economic, or put a boost gauge, or an oil pressure gauge, you think?
O clock glycerin?

No EMP gauge fitted....pretty risky but ive also no got a EGT gauge.
Not sure what the question about clock glycerin is

I believe they're asking what would be the best gauge for EMP as there are many gauges for sale and whether glycerin filled gauge would be suitable
Are you not adding an EGT or EMP gauge?

Will be at some point yeah. EGT sensor is in but no gauge yet.
Ah...duno...not researched them all yet. Hope to plump for some Stack gauges as they match my others currently.

use any boost gauge for measuring emp - you'll need one that goes to at least 60psi though!

I got a cheap gauge for plumbing that goes to 80psi I think...Just need to tap and run a pipe.

If I refer to a meter EMP, recommends a glycerin filled gauge, say that absorbs gases and best brand. . .
I'll have to make several pruevas.
I just do not want a fixed marker glycerin, it's ugly, will have to be single post for adjusting the vnt. . .

Hocus pocus magic or factual systematically testable science?
Working ok on the boost can atm though yeah? turned boost up yet? what she boosting?
Imagine its a hoot to drive with the gtb on

Erm....hocus pocus at the minute. Esp as all my test results are different from the other day with nothing thats changed
Its working ok yeah....only got it at 1bar and the fuel is down a good half-3/4 turn on what it was. But by ek does she shifts still. Throttle response is amazing...you just have to think faster and it seems to go!
I dont wana turn things up to 11 yet till I got some safety gauges and the arduino working.
Plus this earth issue is proper getting me annoyed. Need to conquer it.

Yeah for sure. And throttle response is amazing...really is. And it holds 1.1bar way further up the range...at 4k the GT2056 was running out of puff

My xud11 over 3500rpm, it gets noisier and begins to die, neither comfortable note to over 4000rpm, it improves with big turbo?

Mine didnt like 4k rpm with the 2056s... I assumed pump issues as it felt starved... But I rekon it couldnt flow enough as it will happily fly past 4k rpm now. Not that I like the idea of 5k mind. Im not rev hunter!

It improves massively with a big turbo, mine was still pulling hard past 4000rpm. REalistically my nerves were giving out before the boost was dropping off.

Well that's good news! I do not think my engine to starve, has pin mod and mod governor and 11mm head waiting to be mounted.
Another question about bombs, as you do the static openwork of the bosch?
Me with the ear,
You will need a watch openwork for great powers?

I have NO idea what all that means!
yeah the bosch has no advance so to speak, I think Tom is working on or has already fitted the ecu controlled one and is probably using his arduino to adjust advance...which is a cracking idea to be fair.
In other news....after many more hours undoing my hard work with the wiring...
I removed the noise suppressor on the alternator (yet to see how the stereo sounds!) and added 3 earths to the arduino board shield and I now have MAP, RPM and TPS fully functioning.
Too tired to carry on tonight. Next step is recommision a earth for the unit and add a relay and power for the N75.
Then thread the actuator arm to be able to add a stop and we should be good for some testing.
...oh....and fit the alloy intake
