    Re: bringing my 5 back from the dead

    Well the car has been in hibernation since September so I thought I'd get her out today and do a couple of small little jobs ready for this years meets and events for those of you that did know I had an issue where I had lost a lot of Power and could only boost to 19psi but I found the issue and it now appears to be running well and making full boost again found a boost pipe off its got no tax so I just took it up the end of the road and back and it felt very powerful god how I have missed not driving it. Here is a little video I took earlier

    I didn't even realise you still had this Phil, thought you'd scraped after finding out the floor was worse than Fred Flinstones car.....

    Good work Phil. It is a beauty and deserves some recognition after all the work you've put in to it.

    Well just got back from the photo shoot that lasted about 5hrs but was all well worth it and the editor is a top bloke the initial shoot was meant for 90 minutes but once he saw the car he said instantly it will be front cover and it will also have a 7 page spread with a pop out poster so really chuffed he also thinks redline and fast car will want it to as he is also the editor for them as well have some images I done on my phone that ill put up in a little bit

    I actually agree with you guys after seeing it sitting there today both me and my dad said the back needs dropping about an inch or a tad more but may still also bring the front up a tad more

    Evening chappies we are on route home from scoffs and to say I'm happy is an understatement for those of you who know me you know my goal has always been to try and brake the 300hp barrier with minimal lag with a Vnt still on a c1j and to sit here now knowing it made more feels a great achievement the cars had a right pasting today and probably took a good 30+ runs on board with no real issues the potential power was 309.9 bhp @32psi running slightly lean so a healthy 301.3 bhp was achieved and finally id like to say a massive thanks to mike at gt turbo spares for being a true gent and offering to get the car up there for me what a great guy and what a laugh we have had this weekend cheers to mike scoff and anyone else who's helped over the years I'm now in the c1j 300+ hp club

    Sounds and looks awesome and no doubt goes like stink

    Awsome motor

    Can I ask a few questions about your set up?

    When does it hit full boost and when does it make peak power as in rpm?

    Just curious as to how it feels with the VNT.

    Do you have graphs?

    Hi Phil its coming on boost slightly later now about about 3,500 3,600 and is still continuing to make peak power at 7.2k revs it potentially is still wanting to make more power but it has now maxed out the 3bar map sensor lol
