well look guys , i wont have my r5 so ill be in the 306 diesel , still comign though, just understand i do have a decent car sat at home, and teh diesel passionwagon is purely for milemunching, failing that if anybody feels they wish to offer me a lift i will happily accept.

thats no problem fella will just be good meet a few people off here as im still pretty new to the renault turbo scene
I will defo be going to this.....Time to arrive????
Be there for 9am dont forget ur locking wheel nuts.
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!
Should b a good day mate. Be interesting see your results what boost you running
Standard
internets been dead for a few weeks, has anyone organised meeting before?, convoyish?
I am meeting up with you and Alex but dont know any details as of yet .... everyone else is welcome
Where abouts in chester are you? shall we meet you on the way through.
I'm on the wirral mate, so can meet up anywhere
Tony, Gibbo - PM guy's
PMed ya back
what power are you guys hoping for then ? ill be happy with anything over 185bhp and i reckon if grant (madfive) does one full 30psi run he will see 235-240bhp
Count me in for the chester convoy
well spoke to justin today and he said that the cars only done 134miles of beding in. and he dosent like the idear or me running anymore then 20psi. and he told me that i should only do one run at that. im in a corner and dont no what to do. any ideas.?
yeah do as he says fella not worth blowing it up all for the sake of a dyno day, get it bedded in and we will return for another run i might even stick another 4psi up mine as well
cheers mate the cars only running 5psi atm. just dont want people think that ive talked the talk and not walk the walk. if you no what i mean. just dont want to let anyone down.yeah do as he says fella not worth blowing it up all for the sake of a dyno day, get it bedded in and we will return for another run i might even stick another 4psi up mine as well
cant see why anyone would think that fella it cant have 30psi whacked through it if its not bedded in yet, like i say we can arrange another dyno session once your up and running proper
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.
Sound
Gibbo
i'd be happy with 150-160 unless i get chance to drill my carb out.
whats your spec tony ?
yeah im picking alex up then eastham lil chef it is, whats peoples opinion on route? motorways along way, think i'd rather go a54, 10 less miles and 1 min longer lol?
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
specs pretty standard really. std cam, carrera fmic, t3 acttuator on t25/t28 not sure spec of turbo, turbo guy just gave me it for free and said it'd do allright :P lol i know its got a .49 ex housing tho. big downpipe 2 3/4 ich gt tuning ex system.
boosts about 15psi
defo be interesting see them results its crying out for a bit more boost on that turbo
Prefer none motorway
yeah you can feel it kick in and want to go, i fitted an adjustable valve while it was off the road(which ive now removed) first drive it shot straight past 20psi easily. got wastegate chatter even with my forge DV so no idea what pressure it went to lol
well worth doing just finished playing with mine today ready for satarday. car feels so much better
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 have a piper 285 with springs and vernier but....... same old story, no time to fit it lol. got new pistons and liners too among many other things but......
tubular manifold should arrive soon too but..................... prob never fit it lol atleast its big shiny and nice to look at.
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?
I presume this is the venue?
