Need to get it re-mapped before I test it on the RR.

12000 miles and RG haven't mapped a new developed engine.... Unbelievable


Dom

Not wanting to be a knocker of RG, but I agree 100%.

As Pascal says, you don't know the full story. John, I know you aren't knocking RG; trust me, there are reasons, there is no danger to the engine and RG are as ethical, prepared and professional as you could ever hope for.

And if the worst happened, if the engine gets bended then it will get mended (sorry - ha to try for a bit of poor-poetry there).

Yeah, if you're a good boy, I'll let you use it 1 out of the 365 days

Listen mate, you'd have to wrest it from me! You may be a martial (or is that matital?) artist, but I can inflict a nasty Chinese burn on your wrist

Or will be able to, when my bloody shoulders work again

Sadly, all those cranks looks much the same to me. However, this an image from the film Crank. And I'll remember this one.

only difference is that one has it finished, on the road proven, performing brilliantly by all accounts, one doesnt have anything completely proven

Not really so;RG have a number (you'll have to ask them exactly how many) of FFF engines out there, also performing brilliantly with very satisfied customers. Fact. RG just don't post up about it, although they are happy to answer serious queries.

I'm one very happy customer, I think Davy is another. I guess the others don't use PH forums.

As for getting nasty, if you check back through a number of threads I think you'll find that Pascal is only responding to previous, earlier accusations. I know it sounds childish, but Dom started it. These threads were started for the express purpous of applauding RGs FFF, and S/C, designs. Never to knock any other organisation.

But they seem to get hijacked by people that have some sort of need for recognition. I think that I'm right in saying that in none of the TVR Power/4.3 threads has anyone slagged off Dom or his product. Why he should feel the need to do so here is beyond me. And I don't believe the "only fun" aspect.

Mods, I think this thread should be closed; it is serving no purpose other than to let some people deliberately cause bad feelings. What's the phrase? "Trolling" I believe. It's run its course.

Dom - good luck to you; you seem to have a well respected product. It's not my cup of tea, but that is my choice.

Have the respect to admit that RG have a good product too - although it obviously is not to your liking either. But surely, some professional respect is due here?

As I said earlier, you don't see RG on here claiming anything, accusing anyone, abusing anyone.

Let's close it here.

Mr. Price, keep this tread work safe, please

She's wearing insulating tape. How much safer do you want?

[T40ORA]

Anyway, your photos are far more pornographic. I've gone all wobbly.....

is it worrying to spend more time drooling over the engine bay rather than half naked blonde?!!

Ermmm, putting it like that.....yeah, more than a bit. Mind you, I live with a beautiful blonde but not a clean engine bay....

[T40ORA]

True. When I tell my wife I want her to be dirty, she just doesn't shower over the weekend. I think have comunication problems.

can't you just get her to clean the engine bay?!

You are now begining to conjure up certain visions - I'm sure we've all seen those magazines a some point in our adolescence.....

Idea! TVR owners' wives calendar!

Good to see it looking so well.
Once it's run in don't forget to give us some audio to go with the pictures.
Enjoy.(Give my best to all at RG when you see them.)
Davy mac

It sounds bloody amazing Davy. I'm sort of looking forward to a passenger ride in it. Just slightly scared though as it's going to be a beast...

The car, or the nutcase driving it?

A little of both mate! Road or track, I'll be wearing my lid

glad you said that because that small charger wont make 250 bhp on top of your asperated power of 400 bhp

Dom

Edited by Tvr Power on Saturday 30th January 13:30

What makes you say that Dom? I know nothing of Supercharger technology.

PascalBuyens said:

As for the hoping: I think in the end it'll be more than I had expected

Edited by PascalBuyens on Saturday 30th January 17:25

Don't know what you'll get from it, but from the outside having watched you drive/manoever it those couple of times it appears to be delivering a shed load. I guess it just depends how big a shed

[T40ORA]

I think Pascal is a bit busy with work at the moment. I believe he is out of the country (ours and his) on a major project.

Sadly. I want to see the figures too.

[T40ORA]

PascalBuyens said:

Hey Barry,

There isn't exactly a point in posting supercharged engine figures, if the supercharger is back at the factory is there?

[T40ORA]

I personally think that anyone 'charging these cars is totally bonkers. But bonkers in a good way

I think that I will remain NA too.....

(However I'm chomping at the bit for a ride in Pascals - after I have completed my will-pack and upped the life insurance )

Anyway this thread is about Pascals S/C FFF and I can't wait to see the results.

Oh - so it isn't about Dom's opinions then?

BTW I had to steer my wife away from the laptop as I was laughing while reading you female vote comments.

Think I might make a wee visit out there
