too bad for them! Either way if someone uses someone else's timing it should be only as a guide.

You could make a very good database of the cars you tune with data as: Displacement, CR, Cams, Turbo, Injectors ect and have all the data complete. That way, since you tune a lot, you could guide someone to specific parts with hard data!

Dmitri,

Hope so,
I might post a couple guides as to what is needed to reach xx hp most cost effectively.

I seem to be getting lots of flak for the sofa.
Anyone has an idea what to put there? Perhaps some sort of banner on top?

Good idea re the tuning guides. That's why the 034 site draws you in with their information on each product / turbo, ( regardless of the accuracy ).

The guide of;

1. Chip = 280 bhp and x torque.

2. Chip plus turbo and downpipe = x bhp and y torque.

3. etc. etc.

Almost in a spreadsheet format ?

Also factor in the approximate budget people might need to assemble to achive x bhp.

Having this all in the one place would be ideal as Rusty says, and would be helpful for both oldies and newbies.

Oh yeah, I loved the sofa.

Thanks to yourself and Vas for all the turbo feedback yesterday on my thread.

Ross really needs to get his car on a dyno for the figures for yourself, Vas, myself, Sonic and the rest. No pressure so Ross.



Kind regards.

David, decide on the turbo until Dmitri comes in november and make sure he tunes your car.

Ill be in Chester on the 12th, so you are close to jump to the UK and get your car sorted! Dont get anything off 034 turbowise, get it from a UK dealer and make a choise soon!

Dmitri, i noticed that the 3071 with the 0.82AR still dropped torque quite fast on the dyno, and was almost similar to what i got through my measurements. I would have thought that it would keep on going at least until 6500rpm. Perhaps the compressor is too small to produce any more hp regardless of the hotside..

May i ask what are the small steps on the torque on Lloyd's run? Is that boost issue or just probable slipping on the rollers?

Started a website with a log of the cars I tune.
Not much content yet, but I will be updating it as I go

First it's a .com and hosted in the USA - so you HAVE to set geolocation to the UK via Google Webmaster Tools if you want to come high in UK searches.

Second try some of the tools I have on my page at http://www.isham-research.co.uk/web/tools.html

[Phil Payne]

Any constructive criticism and/or tips would be appreciated.

Hidden link to an online gambling site?

Bye, bye - nice knowing you. Wondered why Google was reporting PageRank as 'N/A'.

Knock was the limiting factor, as well as cams. It was 2 bar and taper 1.75 to redline.

Might be boost slightly oscillating, but this is not really felt in real life.
It is normal for boost to oscillate a bit when you do a pull from very low revs in a high gear. After you do it 1-2 times, motronic adapts and it is better.
You don't quite feel it on a car though, as I said, but the dyno is very precise.

Thanks, but I don't really need SEO, I am not looking at the site as a marketing tool.

Must have come with the free theme I got. Can you tell me the exact page name?
That theme had one more link to samsung mobile, which I removed already.

I should really inspect all the code, perhaps there is more such crap hidden

[prj]

Yeah, great, just found this gem hidden in the php

<?php
$str = 'PGEgaHJlZj0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy5vbmxpbmVwb2tlci51ay5jb 20iIGNsYXNzPSJmbCI+PHNwYW4g
Y2xhc3M9ImZsIj5vbmxpbmUgcG9rZXI8L3NwYW4+PC9hPg==';
echo base64_decode($str);
?>

Which translates to:
<a href="http://www.onlinepoker.uk.com" class="fl"><span class="fl">online poker</span></a>

That's what you get from downloading free themes...

Thanks Phil. And no, I did not put it there myself, don't jump to conclusions please.

*Nothing* is ever free. There is always some "cost", one way or the other.

Unfortunately my creativity level with such things is horrible
I will try to see if I can replace that sofa with a big red S2 tonight.

Couldn't resist...

On a serious note...Looking at your work im seriously under powered for the setup i have. Maybe you need to come and look at my ignition map.

You need a dyno quattro. There us no way around it. That and a pair of knock hearing headphones. Anyone can stare at the maps on vems, but it still needs the dyno.

Yeah, especially at part and low load you really need it.
Higher up you can map most of it on the street by limiting boost, because it will always be knock limited...

But for the low load conditions it is almost impossible to determine MBT.
Only way is to map it to best EGT, but it will take forever.

No, you certainly do not feel it when driving the car.
