who's the quickest ?
 
I had Monty put back on the RR yesterday, and I achieved some really good figures, mainly that of the 157bhp! this since I fitted the new stainless system and outlet pipe.

My plan now after talking to Dave at PDT is to fit a FMIC, that should help me produce a more steady torque curve and see me able to embellish my car with a 160 badge from the ZR! lol


this is what I'll plumb for in the medium:

my question is..... given that most TD's over my figures seem to be a little unstable....

And that mine is a daily driver, covering on average 12k in the past year. that mine is now probably the quickest "Daily Driver" on the road.


I do of course understand that there must be quicker out there, but are they on the road every day doing long and short haul trips?


I've used info from roverdiesel, which has led me to beleive I may well be ?

Hope it all goes well. I'm waiting for Dan to get his SDi's fitted and RR, will then see if its worth getting my ones in and get a reidy remap.

I'm back down to 3 points now, so its tempting.

Only other thing that worries me is that I can spin the clutch up if I go a bit mad!!!!

Have to take it to Santa Pod, my best run was 17.5 sec and 82mph, be interesting to see what yours would run.

:):):)

Mines on there the rover 45 157hp it was used as an daily driver until the aux belt went and took the cambelt with so was scrapped

Standard clutch is fine with sdi's, decat, 19psi boost and remap

do you have donny's telephone number ? where about has he disappeared off to ?

ramdonice 23-06-11 07:39 PM

Na not got his number anymore, imo he spent too much time and money on sorting out aftermarket parts and his other half may had something to say about it, we all know what that is like lol

Last thing I knew he broke his rover 400 and bought a scobby and not been about since

Huffy 23-06-11 08:32 PM

in that case, who wants to help me trick up my IC ? :D
