Perhaps it's the crunch, maybe Christmas... have the hardcore modders left the building?

I think they're all holed up in their garages plotting......

Tuning for the coupe has never been so good, but I feel it may have come 2-3years too late afterall there are only so many left in the world...

If it makes you feel any better, as soon as I get round to fitting a decent clutch I'll be swapping to a bigger turbo and no doubt running too much boost.

Well it does actually, Matty is leading the way where absolutely zero will follow Well maybe one other Matt

Seriously though, I think it's fantastic to push the boundaries, I woudn't be surprised to see Matty's engine still going strong this time next year... then again I wouldn't be surprised to see it go pop tomorrow It matters not, because it's great to take it to the nth degree and see what the real deal is... high boost heroes I salute you everywhere

never quiet where I am pal

you may even get a call this sat if you fancy mapping my rust bucket....it REALLY needs de-PT shitting

I've almost ironed out all the FMIC niggles / gearbox cooler mods etc...but it now runs so rich, almost 10.2afr at full pelt ( only 1 bar at present )

oh, happy x-mas

You can find us all in the "other cars" section.

Hope to be back in here one day!

Whenever you are ready Taz Just mapped my 10th Coupe since October, you will be my first (and probably last) 2.4 so I shall savour the opportunity

BTW I have mapped your old Coupe Matt, it's a fantastic car and Bob is a lovely chap, he will treat it very kindly

He told me about it, and said you did a great job with it too. Now you're making me miss it!

flea i need your services again as of the 29th of this month! Me and nobby are fittin our new shiny tubular standard manifolds from fccuk on here so i will have no blowing manifold and able to get my car sorted.

There are more coming through when you think.

My lounge is filling with engine bits....as a beat up 20v turbo engine is slowly coming to pieces to be rebuilt as good as it can be with an aim of around 450bhp...

Some of us just keep it quite quiet...

Hillbilly get a build tread going so we have something shiny to look at on the cold winter evenings

Don't worry Leighton, there should be a few scottish coops for you to fiddle with hopefully early next year!

Its a very dirty engine at the moment thats slowly coming to pieces, so nothing that interesting yet. Each part will be treated and prepared in an appropriate way. As more of this happens ill post some pictures

Wait till the new year Leight

Ben

Hey Flea

I'm gonna get you to map my car in the new year. Other than fitting a lovely manifold my engine bay is looking lovelier than ever - does that count as tuning??

And one French GT30 powered 20VT

It took long time and money... but i have now all the parts i need to begin the job

I can't wait for January

Pics please!

Ive seen in the flesh Kelv and tbh its a bit Blingy that neat and tidy chris should be a woman!

Sorry, back on topic now!! Flea map my car please

not far to go for me now

I'm not surprise. Nobby is the king of polished bits

Well Leighton, that's one way to gauge how busy you're going to be in the New Year!

In Sweden there are 3 maybe 4 cars that need mapping. Flea come to Sweden one weekend and tune our cars

Leigthon i now have all the goodies for a fully forged rebuild so the bottoem end is going away at the weekend to the engineers. I think the bold Matty is up for trying to extract far too much from it when i get it together so that should be interesting. I'll see you at one of the time attack events i hope next year as i'll be doing them all.

Chance will be a fine thing matt!! You've got more coupé parts stored up that FIAT.

I'm waiting to find a couple of grand down the back of the sofa in order to get the rebuild sorted.

I'm glad somebody is taking longer than me (Begbie is an extreme exception )

Eldinho - how are you getting on with yours? I've got to buy a clutch and then get someone to put it all together.

Well Mark's got his name down for the next NW Rolling Road In February so who knows?

Engine will be built this weekend! Turbo will be back with me on Monday after having the wastegate ported and compressor shroud polished! Engine will be dropped in the car shortly after christmas!

So all things being well I'm hoping end of Jan beginning of feb it will be back on the road!

The only things left to buy now are oil and a battery! :thumbs: and then just need the injectors and mapping once its been ran in!
