Probably the same as Brad's clutch. I don't think that i will be making the power that your car makes for quite some time.

Great News Dean any progess on the Dyno output, remember you have to beat 511 Nm of torque :lol: . Also hopefully I will be up in Sydney sometime before October (if anything goes my way), which is when my first child is due (the weekend of Mini 2005!!). Anyway waiting with baited breath.

Cheers

Matt

Matt,

2005???

Your life will change forever when your child is born. Finish all your projects NOW, it will take you at least 5 times longer to do everything once the little person turns up.

It's all good though, I would not change it.

Tell that to Brad Dan :lol:

It's only a base tune this time isn't it dean so you can run it in? Don't expect any huge numbers yet guys.

Yeah very very soft tune... Mostly to get air / fuel ratio's correct then I have to do a few 1,000k & then we can squeeze it a little...

I will just be happy to have BIGBAD move on its own power at the moment...

Matt I may do a Canberra Run soon to put some K's on it....

Dan willl your car be ready for October?

Yeah gently does it running it in (I keep forgetting that you have to run it in!). Yeah if anybody want to come for a run down to Canberra you are more than welcome I can show some of the good twisty roads we have around here. I should have my rad and water pump fixed by then!

Cheers

Geez, Dan you liked it some much you had to say it twice! :lol: Yeah I will be around on Saturday. I have a mate around so give us a ring do you have my mobie? Be patient mate I got really frustrated several times because my wife kept wanting me to spend time with her! :lol: :lol: . Anyway PM me if you want to catch up. Also notice to all the fuel situation seems to be sorted she is running like a bird, just the radiator and water pump to fix and she'll be tiptop.

Haha the long saga continues... But this has to be expected when you want everything perfect..

Still has not hit the dyno...

New Oil Cooler goes into the car today...

Have replaced the oil lines from the motor to the turbo with smaller lines & a restrictor. Found out as I have a duel ball bearing turbo lines should be 1/3 of the size & then a restrictor is put in.. to limit oil flow... to stop the turbo stealing to much oil..

All water systems are now primed & working properly... Only hassle is.. Looks like I may be best off getting a extra thermo fan on the other side of the radiator... just to help air flow...

Haha Dyno maybe tomoz at this stage... Maybe I will be on the black stuff be4 the end of the weekend
