Convoy anyone???
good weather been given for todays event clear and sunny with temps upto 13c. perfect weather for a bit of c1j boost
hope today goes well chaps and you have a good turn out. Be good to see what you all get.
Great to meet everyone today.
Hope thigns went well folks, the more rtoc meets the better.
My r5 is home now, time to get **** done on it
So let's have some figures then
Mine was disappointing to me.. I over tightend my actuator far too much as I was using the one off my t25 I didn't fully understand how they worked I just thought winde it in you get more boost.. I was wrong so the good Guys of noble said get a decent fitting actuator and chuck another 10psi through it.. Got to also put a 0.9 ac into my carb as it leaned off at 6500.. Great day great venue and great people..
135.8 bhp 138.3 lbft
Boost Crept up till 4200 revs at 1bar then struggled to make 1.1 till 6000 revs
Iv now learnt how much movement should be in a actuator I had it fully wound in and it took me all the power of greyskull to get it on
Will have this sorted ASAP..
Great day
Its a shame paul but not end of world mate at least nothing went wrong you have put engine together well
you were pleased with how it was running..... imagine another 60bph on top shouldnt be too difficult
Anymore figures peeps? who won on the day?
Oh don't get me wrong I'm happy it didn't blow up thundercat has sorted me another actuator already and I'm looking for a bleed valve just incase.. I was just disappointed I'd fitted it incorrectly. Easy fix and quick todo as I said to the guys I only live 40mins away from noble so we will arrange another trip up again. Was perfect weather for it too think we all got red faces.
Guys ill get this thread updated with graphs/vids and a good write up on monday.
Massive thanks to the people that attended and made the effort to get to noble today. Rtoc spirit was strong i think we should defo consider another day at noble.
On another note pauls car with witbout doubt do 200+ when he sorts his little probs.
Well done to all that put there car on the rollers sounded like a good day
Thanks Paul.Wont be long mate,couple of small tweaks and you will be where you want to be.I too think your going to easy see 200hp out of your set up.
i think all the cars that were there were a credit to there owners it was nice to see a group of them together and everyone having a good old chin wag etc which is what these things are all about.
im in process of uploading vids/pics onto photobucket but its taking ages, also gavin from noble has said he is going to email me all the graph files over so ill be able to upload the, as well.
MASSIVE THANKS TO ANDY for sorting out the day
And also to peps that made it there real good to put faces to names and names to user names
Was a blinding day, loved seeing so many motors
Was chuffed to bits that my car made it there and back without problems and I'm please that I know what I need to do to get the car in better state of tune, bring on national day so I can get it back on the rollers and get a better idea of what power it's producing
I wonder if we've got the same graph James because I've got an old one too, made 136bhp iirc
But since then its obviously been stripped and had me messing with it and there's an extra 1psi of boost
Don't suppose you know, or have any info on the turbo?
According to the original ad through bob it's a T2 hybrid?
just been perving on the pics on the fb page... who is the lucky owner of the red 5 on turbines?
Yeeeeeeap it's mine
I do tend to clean it alot Cheers for the positive comments
Still work to be done but just enjoying it for the summer then once it's tucked away for winter I'll be minting it up some more
New poster! (less than 10 posts)

couldnt agree more pal would of been nice get a stand to help promote the club
That photo with the two Chavs behind Paul's car is quality.

i think that guys username is evogill, seemed a really decent fella though, think he was in the market for another r5 if memory serves me right??
Cracking people cracking weather and cracking venue.. Great day and I got a tan too
very true and i actually think the guys at noble loved seeing them there
