Ross Autech

I thought you'd get better results than that to be honest Ross. Like you say though the big cams are en route and could well see good increaes with the supporting mods. At least you know that the gas is doing it's job. Where abouts is the knock sensor? I've got a mate who works for a Lotus Elise race team and they have to take the knock sensor and position it away from the block to avoid the ECU retarding the timing when they're racing. They attach it to the bulkhead at the back so that it's still plugged in but effectively useless.
You've got a base figure for your cams etc now so you'll be able to see exacly what's what when it retested.
 
hmmm, det's niiiiiiiiice :/ .... not being a penis but with that det and the fact you said 2 cylinders were significantly lower on comp?....healthy?

good/mixed day mate, not bad figures though.......dyno dynamics eh ;) :lol: i'll take my 207 on dd now looking at this...awesome to see someone doing something different though, and be cool comparison with the new cams

This used to be a trick for RS Turbo's when running high boost, did this to my old one.
 
the knock sensor is on the back of the block almost in the middle, just below the top of the block

i have to disagree on that one. Det yes cant disagree with that but like a fucker...I think not and for a few seconds is hardly goni cause a major problem. ive heard worse for longer spells and the cars still survive.


nd not to jump on the bandwagon but Ive had plently work done by these guys and its been all good whether services or remaps on the dyno.
the majority of the folk with negative comments have never actually had any work done there....
 
moar boar(ing) update

yeah baby. thats grade 8. ice cold!
 
Nice ross, yeah ive got grade 8 plugs in my turbo, dont have any issues with cold starts, :-)

Also are you just letting the ecu manage everything?,and just adjusting the timing etc,

on nitrous fuelling is controlled by the pulsoids

the timing is controlled by the ECU, until nitrous kicks in when the MSD controller takes over with staged ignition retard. which will knock it back 4* but only on nitrous boost.
 
What's the deal with the Cat Cams then Ross ? Are they higher lift/longer duration ? Will you still have a mid-range or does it shove all the power up top ?
