Where should i get my Noble mapped?

[Biglawrence]

Hi, i have a noble m12 gto 3r 2004 and have owned it for about 10 months. I have now made a few modifications and want to have it mapped before i drive it again properly. So my question to you guys is where do you suggest i have it mapped. I have tried a couple of places and they say 'ermmm a noble, i havent done one of those before, but it i will give it a go' Clearly i wont be taking it to any one of them numpties. Much Help Needed. Thanks

Trevor Jasper is your man, "yellowshed" I think that's his user name, do a search on here I'm sure you will find him, trust me, you won't regret it

where are you based in the country ?

[david.mt]

At which point (ie when were the ECU's locked) do you need access to the Noble software and access codes - I know my 2005 M400 can only be remapped by those who have the official software.

Does Trevor have these facilities and where abouts is he - anyone "up North"?

[Biglawrence]

Thanks for the quick responce. Im in Essex near southend on sea. Yes i have heard of Trevor but wasnt sure on how to get hold of him. Anybody got his phone number??? this is my first day on here so i dont know how to get his details up.

trevor uses a place called Track n Road (I think that's what its called anyway) just off the A13 in Purfleet/Wennington on certain days of the week, so dead easy for you to get to from southend. I have his mobile number but not sure i'm supposed to give it out on the forum (??) his email is [e-mail].

sounds like there are more essex based nobbers now, so we should start hooking up more often now that we are (reportedly) heading towards summer.

[Biglawrence]

Hi yes there are plenty of Nobs in southend. I will email him now. Thanks very much for your help. Be good to attend a noble meet as i have only seen about 4 on the road!

Was that Nobs or knobs?

[Biglawrence]

Both

Track n Road is run by Steve Greenald. They are at Thurrock and very highly recomended by hundreds of Caterham owners. They do lots of stuff for Mountune and Roush as well. Steve's mobile is 07774 773824 to book.

what mods have you done?

They are in Rainham, Trevor doesn't work for them but uses their facilities for . callabration, you can contact him through his profile on here.

only a few mods so far, Bosch uprated fuel pump and loom, Haywood and Scott exhaust (no cats), Aem progressive water injection kit, Aem boost controller, Aem wide band gauge. Looking poss to do intercooler and hard pipes before map but not too worried as water inj should keep intake temps cool enuf.

How will that work?

[Biglawrence]

correct me if im wrong but an intercooler is designed to take the heat generated by the turbos out of the air leading to the engine, the water injection's jet is located just before the butterfly on my throttlebody and when a certain preset psi is achieved in the boost system, say 5 psi it starts pumping water in a fine mist into the air which is then mixed with the fuel lowering intake temps dramatically. You can also use methanol but i find it burns too hot and you can run slightly leaner compared to water. So the same result is achieved virtually i think using water injection as having a larger intercooler, except the larger intercooler might have a greater flow capacity which is also an obvious benefit. I will still change the intercooler but just want to catch up a bit with what i have allready spent.

I wouldnt dream of correcting you, I see from your website that getting a good supply of engines would not be a problem to you

[wessexrfc]

YellowShed is your man, join the queue!!! Looks like you could supply us with some competitively priced parts, nudge, nudge (ie a nice new shiny header for my Nob) don't read that wrong!!

[Blu3R]

Pre mixing the meth with water up to around 50/50 can give you the best of both worlds. The ECU can be mapped to take account of the mixture as well so you should never have to run too lean.
Its also a hell of a lot safer to store meth if its been heavily diluted!

[TuxMan]

Yellowshed is the man without a doubt !! Get hard pipe and intercooler first though , for best results it's worth doing the valve springs as well !!

What happens when you run out of water?
