FARK how did i miss that!

hehe eBay king me.
Hey he still has a CF engine cover though I reckon it would vent worse than a stock one. Looks OK though.

OK here's the latest update. I dynoed it again tonight and the wastegate actuator I replaced works fine......BUT...... because I have a custom twin dump pipe, the wastegate doesn't flow well enough to regulate the boost. As such I get a runaway boost condition even though the wastegate is open.
The solution is to get another dump pipe made up though this time there won't be a separate pipe for the wastegate outlet. My tuner says he's never seen any power gains from having a twin dump pipe anyway, so I won't see a loss in power.
Attached is a graph showing the boost creep.
I'm still planning on going to open practice at EC on the 20th so I'd better get cracking at getting my exhaust guy to make a new dump.

Have any of you guys tested at Winton? I'd be interested to know what kind of times you do around there.

Winton National Circuit (3.0Km)
SPORTS SEDANS:    
       Under 2 Litre Ken Hastings Snr Toyota MR2 March, 2003 1m31.4735s
Not me btw lol

 
That was a 2litre cosworth motor. RobYob has done some track days down at winton, but i don't know if he has done any natsoft timed events. 1m 31s is very quick, you need to know the track to do a time like that. I have seen a few mr2's there before, usually in the very high 1.30's or in the 1.40's

Oh yeh??? Do you know where I can get more info on this car?? Yes 1m 31s is very quick I don't see any skylines on that list lol.
Cosworth motor huh? Imagine the power-weight ratio on that engine...gonna look into this...
Sorry that was off topic congrats on buying the CF boot I suspect the car will snap less with that weight of it's back and have more balance.
Will you be posting up vids again? I would flim it but I'm in VIC lol

a correctly setup MR2 doesnt snap at all.

True - mine is a bit taily though it's certainly drivable when a bit sideways. i.e. you can steer out of it.

what diff do you have? and what width rear tyres?

LOL - I doubt I'll feel it. I bought it for the bling. If my car is going to be slow, it may as well look good.
Yeah I may throw the camera in it again. It's been a while since I've got some good footage
