finally got some dry weather and spare time :D

first is sound only to save space. out of a junction in 2nd then 3rd then 4th up to 130 indicated (just about the end of 4th)

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v334/ ... 020821.flv

second is with video, 3rd gear then 4th

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v334/ ... 020824.flv

both these were up a long gentle slope and this is all still at 7psi and with limited mapping (i.e. a couple of very intense hours put in by Ant)

sounds much nicer with six throttles :twisted:

let me know if you can't view these (i can, but then it's my photobucket account lol)

the lower gears don't feel absurdly quick really. but every time you change up it seems to pull just as hard as the gear below :twisted:

pulls that last 5 above 130 nice and quick in the second vid as it gets near full revs 8O

Max, err, these speeds are in km/h you know :D

That makes me want a turbo so badly, 4th gear looks like fun! Is that with stock internals and clutch?

1st vid is sound only march, wasn't sure how large they'd end up so made a nice small one with just sound.

Glenn... shouldn't imagine it's anywhere near E30 S62 pace :eek:

i'm looking forward to seeing your s50 plans :D

it's a standard scrapper engine and a newish clutch

i'm waiting for an unsuspecting e46 m3 to try it on on the motorway :twisted: :twisted:

then, one day, i really am going to put the 1 bar spring in 8O

when you get the 1bar spring in there, i doubt there would be much in it.

looking at the way that speedo climbs, are you sure it's not up on axle stands

I'm sure it's about 330bhp, there was something written about a rolling road session in PPC mag a couple of issues ago, before he fitted the throttle bodies maybe? :?
