It's definitely not a slouch.

Ok. So. With this setup it builds boost to fast and it can't control it. It spikes to almost 20 and slowly drops to 11. I'm going to add some more preload to the wastegate and run larger tubing to it all. I'll port the stock turbo+ module and see if that helps.

Where's your boost reference from?
 
doesnt seem bad at all, of course the 85mph speedo makes it seem a bit quicker :lol:


my 242 might do that....if the clutch would hold :lol:
 
I like how you used the braided line to the Cold start injector rather than just bending the stock one to fit, I may try that.

Also seems quick :)
 
Took this thing out for a hotlap tonight and just thought I'd put some thoughts here.

I need a little less rear spring and a little more shock. It still amazed me at how hard I could push it. With the new camber plates in the front it made the turn in very crisp and it just sticks to the road. I did get a little wheel spin in 3rd in a few turns but that acceptable for a open diff and how hard I was pushing it. The engine just pulls and pulls in 3rd gear. I only went into second once in a 15 mph turn but the 25 turns were right around 55 and one faster. For having skinny 225/50 tires on 7" rims it suprised me. I guess I hadn't really pushed the brakes that hard till now but once they heat up they work really good. Never faded at all where my M3 faded a couple times on the same route.

I also found out that I need a new filler neck as mine isn't round and fuel will escape the cap on hard lefts.

My next step is to get the rear axle and heimed links from my other 242 and make a adjustable panhard. I can feel the rear is a little sloppy. After that its tremmec transmission then megasquirt the b21 and see what it'll do before I put the whiteblock in.
 
Been driving the thing a lot lately. Even daily while my work truck is broken.
Took it to SoCal euro and cars and coffee.
Oh and put a single round flathood setup on it today.
