One week to go chaps! Really looking forward to this!
Yep 
Still waiting on a few more to say yes/no. I think we'll end up closer to 15 cars (nice to have a variety down there) Booked in with the local Polish guys for a hot bath on Thursday! (Hate car washing with a passion!!!!!)
Just have to swap boost solenoids back over tomorrow, still has this throttle cut issue unless I hold off until 3k to nail it then it's fine.....99% sure its the actuator needs upgrading or my Insignia VXR turbo just isn't up to stage 5 and should have gone for the 20T instead
I'm hoping GotBoosts dyno guy will be able to tell what's causing it.
No idea budd, the stage 5 19t guys in the states are seeing around 415bhp & 530ft/lbs but on a dynojet dyno which I've heard can read high? I've got that map loaded but tweaked for the smaller 18t turbo. I know someone had 325bhp & 472ft/lbs with this turbo but on standard injectors (JZW Stage 4) so if I get above here ill be happy
Probably come in way lower knowing my luck though!!

Gotta be somewhere in between though surely?
Sounds like a right torque machine! I bet 60 to 100 is stupid fast!
I just found your history thread, will enjoy reading that and seeing it in the flesh!
60-100's not too bad at 5 seconds but could do with a little shaved off 90-100, my old rusty shed 9000 Aero was a lot quicker though @3.8s but also had loads of lag to go with it! Pain in the arse in the end, my foot would be welded to the carpet in 3rd from 50 and it didn't really get going until 70 Sounds like a right torque machine! I bet 60 to 100 is stupid fast!

60-90's around 3.3/3.4 here so I'm happy with that, also very little lag which is a bonus, the 20T plus headers & JZW's race tune gets 3s dead 60-90 so not a lot in it for the extra ££££ to upgrade here, but they get much more grunt above a ton. I'd love some tubular headers on mine but it's probably around a grand so money best spent elsewhere on the cooling side.
What are you expecting to get with the vxr8? Looking forward to seeing it, are they supercharged?
Beast!! Yep looks a nice sunny day
We've got a few more coming to spectate but I don't think they'll be running.
List updated and were up to 11 cars, still a few days left if anymore fancy it
So price now should be £35 per car if it stays at 11+ cars, to make it a little easier to collect/sort the cash on Saturday could everyone bring a tenner and couple fivers so I can collect the £15 remaining balance please?
Cars booked in for a Polish bath tomorrow morning (needs it!!)

Looks like it's a weak fuel pump that let me down here, my tuner was far from happy with the numbers it made, he's adamant it should be close to 400 and torque should be miles higher 
I did ask to have the run done in 3rd from 3k+ and not in 4th lower down but that didn't happen and he went from 2k in 4th (runs like a bag of nails if I do this on the road) No matter, at least it's got the ball rolling here to get the pump swapped out! Had a good day out anyway and nice to meet everyone/see some interesting cars
Just had another map to try that's a little richer low down and have gone back for the standard map sensor for now until it's sorted, will then go back to the mad map & 3.5 bar sensor, so my throttle cut/boost dump problem has gone between 2.5-3k and its a tad slower up top, but he still can't get lambda down to .86 like the other stage 5 cars and this is staying around .98 so is 99% sure it's the pump on its way out.
So needs a new pump (can't find any in the uk so has to come from America) £175 plus shipping & tax and nothing upgradable like Walbro or HRC available for these as its a return less fuel system, also needs a new fuel pump control module around £40 and a I'll get new petrol cap while I'm at it as these can cause problems not sealing properly and throw a CEL. We'll get there in the end!!!
