Nice meeting you mate ^^

What an awesome night!!!

My one and only complaint is that we should have started at like 9am. I could have listened to Jim and Alan speak all day.

And having the current owners of the cars there as well made it that much better.

By far one of my favourite SAU events.

Best part - it was extremely well organised and ran like clock work.

Thanks to all that organised the night.

good effort organisers, ran perfect. A very massive achievement considering it's the first kind of it's event the club has held. very impressive.

the whole night was excellent, catching up with people, checking out the cars, hearing stories from the good old days. top job!

It's amazing what you club execs can pull together these days! A far cry from the old days where organising a bunch of cars to meet in a carpark at a set time was difficult haha

the cut off for the Calendar's first print run is this afternoon. All orders currently in, or that are placed before 6pm today will be printed tomorrow and sent out over the through the week. if your interested best to check the calendar thread for payment and postage details :)

p.s. Who wants to help me steal that group c bluebird? ;) haha

:thumbsup: You guys can give yourselves a pat on the back because...

As I was trying to listen to a conversation between Eric and Duncan, I couldn't help but overhear Jim saying to Alan, "This is a great bunch of guys!"

So that to me my friends, was the 'cherry on the cake'!

PS A Request:-

Fantastic night!!! I'm so proud of the club when they put on amazing events like this... as Matboy said we've come a long way. Couldn't have done it without the tireless efforts of Terry & co behind the scenes (I'm not going to thank everyone lol).

Loved Jim and Alan's stories, and Jim really is SUCH a nice guy... got an awesome photo with him that I might just have to frame hehe. But he was so happy to sign/chat/etc with anyone and had a big smile on his face all night.

My pics are here if anyone wants a looksy!

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
