    Re: staffs/cheshire new year meet/rolling road day

    well my 5 will be ready a week tomorrow. then i will have to bed the engine in for at least 600mile. and its also only going to be running 9psi. so im hopeing it will be bedded in by the time for the rolling road day. if not i will still run it but not at silly boost. dont want anything going pop on me.

    Looking forward to this! My engine is all standard (bar some hoses, an air filter, and a side exit), so looking forward to seeing how close to standard power it is!

    Personal for me the best way to run an engine in is to run it hard

    It's all about piston ring seal breaking in to which I would say the first 20 miles the most important.

    just a little note for you all, just be careful when coming onto the industrail estate as there is a police holding cell centre there so be a bit wary where to plant the right foot

    i dont have any air corrector jets so it'd only be 1.2 on the 2nd stage and see where it goes from there.
    More of a set the boost to the 1.2 rather than aiming for a boost figure.

    Tony id imagine your car on that turbo would benefit from a 285 cam and another 3-5 psi. Good job you took that valve off.

    yeah it was a stupid gt tuning one, didnt matter what i did with the nuts/threads still overboosting. so junked it lol 18psi is around where i'd like to leave it. to be honest 15s still pretty fun i drive it with alot less anger than i used to so power isnt everything for me anymore, i just love being out in it pootling around.

    just to confirm the date is sat 19th march
    Hi mate gonna still try and get to this, had a few teething probs with the new engine. Will the guy who you said could set the carb up be there?
