    Re: 20th April - midlands rr day @noble motorsport

    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

    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.

    As far as preload goes, i have had 15-20mm of preload with a -34 and never ever had any problems...the problem with too much preload is usually gate not opening enough and boost creep... So unless your actuator bracket is flimsy as more preload isnt a problem?

    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?
