looking at that , its very simular to Redrobins. you had one bad run, followed by good runs. Torque figures are the same to his aswell.Robin

was advised by revo guys to put larger intercooler to make gains on his to make improved gains.

Whos your map by?? and yes go on dyno dynamics rollers if you can mate, prooved to be one of the most accurate. I have about 10-11 mk5's coming to my rolling road day at JKM in october 4th. So should be very interesting results.Do me a favour and look at the list to see if any have the same map as you.(in Events section) ta

But I would say a mapped ED30 would be comparable to a 280bhp JRSC'd CTR roughly mate..

Nooooo way, my JRSC CTR was as quick as my 420bhp S3!! From 50mph anyways..

Eh????
How's that mate..? I know the CTR is lighter 1204 kgs, but it's not 140bhp lighter if you know what I mean?
I'm going off my mates old JDM JRSC'd CTR which was about 290bhp and it ran near identical 1/4 mile times and terminal speeds to mine.. As good a indication as any.. Power/weight is similar too..
Obviously there are many stages of supercharging a CTR, but I was just refering to the standard set up. Not a big PSI 300+ monster..  :evil:
What power was yours mate?

Ah well only going off my experience anyways, it was 295bhp and 225ft/lbs, only weighted 1070kg though, Im re thinking what I have just said based on a little play with a mates turbo VX220 tonight, when his was standard my Civic was slightly faster.. Now hes running 260bhp and 290ft/lbs and the S3 was just a little faster..

I would still say that an ED30 with the mods listed would struggle against a JRSC CTR but your car does seem to go very very well indeed!! lol..

295bhp and 1070kgs is a little different mate.. Some nice weight loss there... :wink: I would seriously struggle against that.. Suprised it was only slightly quicker than a standard VX220 Turbo though, as they are a good 100bhp short and only about 100kgs lighter IIRC..? Quick little fookers though, especially when modded.. Speaking of JRSC's and light cars. Lad I know has a S1 Elise with a 300+bhp JRSC'd CTR engine in it. Weighs less than 700kgs and has over 420bhp/tonne... Goes well..  :shocked:
Any pics of you CTR mate? Always fancied a go in  a SC'd one have to say. Really enjoyed my CTR, cracking car IMO.

Im glad it is as fast as your saying, reading the mk4 forum they ll make out there remapped cars are capable of beating much quicker cars so i was hoping it wasnt the same story here  :smiley:

Whos ever said that then?? Ive not seen it   :undecided:

What cars have thay said thay can beat??  :huh:

Not the prettiest thing in the world (reason for selling it)





...but it went very very well!



Yeah that Vx220 is mega quick, pretty cool that a little practical hatch can keep up though!!

....Suggested by JKM but not specifically advised by Revo. We'll see what the plot is like on October 4th :afro:
