Managed to get 27mpg yesterday lol..

Looks awesome mate glad you got the alternator sorted.. did you up the fueling at top end ??

need to get rid of engine management light as well or is that coz you turned esp off ??
Yes mate - no power meant no amps to the pump so killed the fuel. All is spot on now :D

EPC light is on and always has been...something to do with the wiring of the S3 loom and my interior loom on the car. Will eventually sort it!

Lol - generally I get about 25mpg off boost as found last night when my c clip flew off my wastegate and I had no boost the whole drive home lol....

But figure £30 - 50 miles-70 miles is a good estimate with lots of entertaining driving lol

Lean running was down to the charging fault and not amps to keeping  the fuel pump on full song.  But now is pulls like a fecking train.  Wheel spinning on the dyno around 140mph 6000rpm 350bhp, that with all extra strapping for the big turbo stuff we do..lol :laugh:   We had to fully load the dyno and get the wheels spinning in 3rd gear before the power runs to get heat in the tyres.

My aim will be 370bhp 320lbft.. :grin:

You got to remember I have not done any timing mapping on the car yet, just load/boost and fuel, so in theory I can drop 3psi and have more advance and still get the same power... watch this space..

Yes bud, satin black - £25 a wheel with centre caps powdercoated at city powder coaters in brum!


This car is so quick now, cant wait to see what else it can do....Just need to fit the turbo back on now lol

Haha feel free to come down every weekend mate. Always welcome - if you dont fancy the journey home can always come out with a couple of us on Saturday aswell lol

Removed it in less than 20 minutes earlier - as the crappy bolts I had, had come undone and the gasket literally blew in half. So better nuts and a better gasket on the way! Will be back on the road Friday night :)
