    Dive planes and up turns have now been added and I increased the surface area like the LMS R8 splitter

    Sorry budy I have no idea! I am going to try and get a front and rear system set up next week to the dash so I can let you know then.

    Found this




    And if any one is interested I am building a per carbon spliter with a high density foam core.
    It will suit the Rs2 bumper and will cost about £600 with a clear coat finish.

    Only cold with gauges. I think hot with a heavy foot will change them alot

    Getting there. I am going to have to re route the waste gate into the exhaust now

    Doubt it will sound the same

    Just got to finish the new front splitter so i dont have any more issues. Rear is done but its alot more simple. Get all the data logging channels set up and some brake pressure sensors then i think for now that will do.

    Was at brands on monday getting some much needed seat time in.

    Weather was abit of a problem. Light to heavy rain and alittle over cast so it did not dry untill i got kicked off at 4.00 for breaking all the circuit noise meters.

    It was to dry for wets but not dry enough for slicks, so i went out in the rain on wets which was alittle interesting the first few times. The tyres were amazing when you got the heat into them and you could almost drive as fast as in the dry. With the rear roll bar off and the front turned down it was unstoppable.

    Had to bed new pads and discs in the am this took up most of the morning after i was battling to get my wiper to work. After that i put 3 coats of Rain X on and got on with it. I was pulled in before lunch, flat in 5th down the pit straight going over the bump into paddock hill i was throwing sparks from the front splitter scrapping the ground on the front pick ups. So i had to take it off.

    Hes a 1.3/.1.4 bar drive by down the back straight in the wet ( turn it up )

    Thanks to Carbon Design for this excellent piece of carbon work ( sorry i ruined it )

    I now have a belt cover, Fits over the larger VW belt i am using i also made my own carbon bottom section from a plug so the cover is completely carbon. Next i'll work on getting something for the dry sump pump.

    If you tried to 0-60 the car with out a steady rolling start I am almost 100% sure it will explode the carbon prop shaft. It's like driving a large 4wd go cart now. It will not
    Understeer at all unless you are being stupid with it.

    Didn't go in the end, they were charging for demo cars?

    I went to the Dyno Friday last with Tero one of the designers of the Tatech ecu I run to set up all the new parts with the engine harness so I can get the most out of it. Also there were a few checks to be made because the maps didn't swap straight over. We had a trigger issue so this ment we ended up with less than one hour on the Dyno to check it over.

    It did pull first run 470hp with very little ignition timming. On road fuel. After this we had only another 3 runs to check some other areas so I have booked Combe next week to do some remote tunning. In one way Its gone two steps back and one forward. In some sense but it's better for the grand scheme of things. Awaiting a video from ash of the car on it, taken centre boxes out so its alittle louder. Here's a photo




    I started to build a new front splitter this one will be one pice carbon here's the plug to make the mold so far! Will be less than 5kg with mountings on rose joints
