staffs/cheshire dyno day @ wgt 19th may

[BluntyR5GTT]

Alright everyone going to get us another dyno day sorted at WGT auto developments in Middlewich, as you might know we have had 3 previous events there with the last one being the big rtoc only event that was featured by performance french cars.
This one will be open to anyone that wants to attend so not only a renault event so if you have any friends who want a pretty bang on reading of there power output then this is for you.
As always tea/coffee/soup/biscuits etc etc will be provided and prices are £40 for 3 runs this includes 2 colour printouts and i cant stress enough of what a good set up it is at WGT and the guys there a spot on always willing to offer advice etc. Just like to add this is a hub dyno and not a rolling road so if you do attend you will need your locking wheel nut so your wheels can be removed :)

address
Unit 12
Valley Court
Sandersons Way
Middlewich
Cheshire
CW10 0GF

webiste http://www.wgtautodevelopments.co.uk/

Normal procedure we need £100 deposit to secure the venue for the day so as we always do ill take 10 payments of £10 and then that means the deposit payers go in the 1st 10 on the day :)

hi matey thats not a problem will be good get you along finally, then we can see how that t28 is performing on your b18ft


sweet and yes id love to see how its performing, hopefully by then ill be using the 740 injectors and be able to run 20psi'ish, happy days:).

[BluntyR5GTT]

damn right mate 20 psi will be nice, what you running atm 15?

[REGGY5GT]

yeh 15 atm mate, got me afr on now so i can set it up a little better, ive taken it out a few times up the lane and even at 15 psi ive never driven anything like it, the difference a t28 makes compared to the t2 is mindblowing.

[BluntyR5GTT]

oh yeah its a fair hike mate, your going from a baby turbo to a good sized one. when do you see full boost? best investment ever an afr kit is absolute godsend

[Andyturbo!]

Me and rachel shud be attending this again, last one was great

[REGGY5GT]

oh yeah its a fair hike mate, your going from a baby turbo to a good sized one. when do you see full boost? best investment ever an afr kit is absolute godsend


erm, i havent really had a chance to note full boost as yet mate, taking it up the lane im to busy trying to keep it on the road its savage, it is quite late,aag around 3500ish, as for the afr yes its a trick bit of kit got it off daveturbo nearly new at a great price and AEM aswel so its spot on.

[BluntyR5GTT]

thats great news fella, and you will be in an r5gtt, will you be running the car to see whats what?

[BluntyR5GTT]

cool mate thats not bad at all 3.5k remember you have the .64 rear on there so that will add to it. on a c1j t28s tend to be around 4-4.2k

Hope you can cope with the fuel costs! I put my wide band on and the afr was 11:1! Did it want to get any richer! It was a 300 quid a month fuel habit and that wasn't mega mileage, I'd look at a 21 turbo :D

not sure if any of the other fellas are meeting anywhere mate, i have to be there a bit before everyone turns up to sort few a few things.

could anyone whos on the list please confirm if they are running or not and if running send me your reg plate over.

[BluntyR5GTT]

just for anyone who aint sure, then this starts at around 8.30am so its totally upto you on what time you get there. also dont forget to bring your locking wheel nut with you ;)

[r17antony]

:(:(:( engine not running right , tappets super noisy , checked them twice , unlikely that i am going to make it

[Alex]

Very nearly wasn't going to make this - the car went on fire! :eek: I was doing a few jobs on it getting it ready for the day and the MOT due in the next month or so. All went well and I packed up the tools then connected up the battery. As I was pottering I spotted smoke from the passenger side sill area, then flames! :eek: hastily disconnected the battery and my brother chucked a load of water over the area.

Turns out the wiring that runs down the side of the car has been chafed where the harness eye has been screwed in - very nasty.

Chopped out all the burt wires and replaced them with new and all is now well. Could have been game over if I hadn't have been around the car :rolleyes:

[Andyturbo!]

Not going to be able to make this due to work and other boring things that usually get in the way! Gutted as it wud have bin my first meet in the 5 too. Have a good one lads

[r17antony]

:(:(:( engine not running right , tappets super noisy , checked them twice , unlikely that i am going to make it

:( still not happy how its running , checking it over again in the morning , may be up mid morning

:eek: glad it wasnt too bad mate. scray stuff. i allways have an extinguisher in mine, and disconect the battery when its not used is a good idea too. bloomin electrics. wish i could make it tomorrow, wifes cousin decided to get married tomorrow so i cant make it :(

[BluntyR5GTT]

antony thats not good to hear i hope you get it sorted in time

christ alex thats a right swine but glad you managed to catch it in time

shame you cant make it andy would of been good catch up and have a gander at your motor.

looks like there is only 4-5 renaults running on the day which is a bit disappointing tbh but nevermind, will be a miles better turnout at the efi-parts rtoc only event in sept

think my car of the day would have to be kentys mk1 focus rs very impressive power from a mk1 frs

[Scoff]

Only 3 renaults ? What a shame. Still, it was 3 more than turned up to my Cliosport RR day recently!! Just as well you invited the fords. :)

I had to work today and Glenn's clutch is dead, waiting on a new multi plate to be made.

[BluntyR5GTT]

yes mate only 3 renaults ran was 4 in total as gibbo came along. bit of a shame really but i know paul and ash who was meant be running have both had engine problems so couldnt make it and obviously mine is off the road.

thats really bad that nobody turned up for that day mate, they was probably too busy polishing there cars

[BluntyR5GTT]

also id have to state that alex's car was really good on the dyno, fuelling was bang on the money and made good power/torque for around 1bar boost

[Jimmy5]

Nice one mate how did she do?

Not too brilliant, only 92 bhp:(

Fuelling looks like its all over the place - so a carb rebuild is required, then hopefully it will record a figure nearer standard.

Worst part of today was when my dashboard clock visor decided to bid for freedom! Prob is its snapped inside the dash and i cant get the snapped piece out :cry:

[Andyturbo!]

Shame it wasn't a better turnout of renaults andy but great results for the ford boys

[BluntyR5GTT]

was good to meet you james, as we said might be best do a good strip down and rebuild of the carb and also check the compression before going any further. should be easy enough get another 25-30bhp back

Bid for freedom!? Lol how did that happen buddy

yeah i must say i was rather gutted by the turn out from rtoc members but as said there would of been 3 more running but situations halted them.

Yep was good to meet you to blunty.

Will have a look at the carb next month I reckon - do I just need the carb rebuild kit thats in the club shop?

[Jimmy5]

Went over a slight bump and next second its snapped into three piece with largest bit ending up on me! No idea how im going to get the snapped bit out of the dash. Had clocks out when i got back home but cant budge the snapped piece :cry:

[BluntyR5GTT]

yes get one of them kits fella, then give all the jets a good blow through with an air line if possible.
might be worth investing in a new mixture screw and idle valve they dont cost much at all.

Cheers for advice :agree:

[BluntyR5GTT]

Cheers for advice :agree:

anytime james, personally id just give it a good full service and do the carb and see how it goes then

[Alex]

Cheers for organising the day Blunty, had a good time. Shame more didn't turn up as mentioned, but it happens unfortunately :rolleyes:

Very happy with the way my car performed, not big figures but good for 1 bar boost. More importantly the fuelling is on the money :)

SB, I think a good service is needed on yours. Get yourself a carb kit from the shop and strip it all down, clean and check the jets etc. I'd also change all the filters etc if you haven't already. :agree:

[Daz5774]

Yea cheers for organising it Blunty, good to meet you and a few other members.
Nice to know my fuelling is spot on. I think I need to arrange a visit to see Scoff though, get my boost increased as its running a bit low.

thanks alex i dont mind organising these days, just felt a bit let down on this occasion.

your car performed bang on the money i bet it a great responsive car on the road, if you get chance post your graph up.

cheers daz its no probs just a shame there wasnt a better turnout of members there.

defo go see the wizard of scoff he will sort it for you id even consider raising the boost to 1 bar whilst your there

[Nottswoody]

Do we have any video of these runs? Again would loved to of been there I booked the day off and everything even had a babysitter sorted.. I promise I will be at the next event as I'm locking it away till then :-) need the exercise on my bike anyway..

[BluntyR5GTT]

i think a few vids were recorded ill see if i can get hold of them.

paul as via pm there is no need for apologies as i knew you couldnt make it (fancy running 20psi when i told you not to lol)

[matty j]

Was nice to meet you all also, shame I didn't come in mine but it was there in spirit lol

Next time :)

[Gibbo69]

Well done Blunty, as you mentioned shame that we only had 4 renaults but good to catch up with new & old... :)

Was disappointed to find that Blunty was struggling confirm members,that had previously put names down to run, Blunty works hard arranging these days & does it in his own time for the good of the club....Common decency if you ask me!!
