Congrats Chris! Great result!
Wait till you are bored with the power of the car and chuck in some cams
I'm excited! I bet there will be more stuff coming from you mate.
The gains in the mid range

Man I need to install my suspension... On cold tyres in 1st I'll spin to redline straight away from any RPM, on warm ones I'll spin from around 5500rpm. If you can put that sort of power down and still only spin at 4000rpm your car is a monster. So much grip some how

Please 1/4 mile it soon, I want to see a 14.8

Yea, I used to chirp/wheel spin much easier when the car had stock suspension. With the softer stock suspension the front of the car will lift off the ground very easily under acceleration which contributes to the wheel spin. With the coilovers and an engine torque damper, you definately gain traction in a straight line.

VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR
no seriously make a video
now.

will see what I can do.

chris u r god. can i plz have ur babies

Wow well done Chris. You're a true Euro pioneer.

It must be a really fun car to drive now. Post some videos on youtube or something when you get a chance.

It seems everyone wants a video now so I'll see if i can put one together.

Thanks kit. I think it will take me a while to get used to this power. It's more than enough for now. The next step is to fine tune the cold start and idle.

Is anyone in brisbane with a stock or lightly modified euro interested in going to a dyno with me?

I'd like to do a comparison between my car and a stock car.

I'll chip in a bit of money toward the cost of dynoing your car if neccessary.

Let me know !

Would love to, but I'm heading in the opposite direction. Heading to the sunshine coast for the weekend.

Damn you! Your woman got her way didn't she!?

Get your car re-dyno'd now that you've fixed the throttle position

[Chris_F]

The adjustments I made to the throttle settings won't effect power output. It just puts less strain on the drive by wire motor really. At 88% TPS the butterfly is actually fully open. At 97% it is also fully open but slightly 'over extended'. The few degrees of rotation are insignificant to performance.

I also monitored my intake temperatures last night and I was very impressed with the GruppeM's ability to suck in cold air.

Outside temperature ranged from 15-17*C and intake air temp stayed fairly flat at 20-25*C. At speeds over 80km/h or higher it wouldn't budge from 20*c. It only went over 25*c after I pulled over and idled for 20 minutes while playing with some settings.
