Mostly cosmetic, bit now we are running E85 unrestricted, have to fit new injectors, surge tank etc as well as change it all over to Tarmac. Bodywork is done on it, suspension has been changed. plus it needs a tune too now :-(

The Longford Revival Festival site is coming along well... even after all the rain last week the grounds are good and the Flying Mile nice and clean now... ready for some max speed runs from the racers and exotics both old and new!!

Yeh don't care about that since I can't go. More importantly whats the go with Day 2?

Looking forward to the Longford Festival, should be a great lead up to targa week.

Massive thanks to Stuart for getting the Radcam's down to us the night before the safari, pretty sure you must have raced down there as soon as we messaged you :-)

I'm arriving in Lonnie saturday. Will have the customary piss up at the Olde Tudor saturday arv/evening.... and this time, Dicky Johnson is joining us :)

we finally have a good 999 car.... eddie decided using other people's crap was too hard so he purchased quite a nice Emo 8, all prepped up :)

Hopefully the top of Rossarden has been washed away. I shit myself going over there!! LOL

I'm on the ferry tonight ready to get into it.

Well I haven't been out yet for a look, but I saw on the news last week the train bridge you pass under at the end of Rossarden stage just before turning back on the highway (where every one services) and the water was up to the bottom of that bridge!

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
