Save me from a nervous breakdown!!

Evening all. The ongoing saga of the R1 turbo "still life" continues. Does anyone by any chance know the flow rate for the injectors on a standard R1 Yamaha (2002)? Better still -has anybody got an ignition timing map for same or similar? I'm getting extremely fed up taking the car out of the garage, going "Oooooh it's beautiful" and then having to push it back in. The engine runs and sounds good, but it's impossible to tune. I'd like to be ready for Fintray, but time's running out....

I still have the map from the DTA management system we fitted to the Honda Blackbird engine on the G22 - if you drop me an email I will send it to you by return if it is any use to you.

I had the car mapped on the rolling road by Wayne Schofield - I can't find his number, but it looks like he is still in the business from this site www.chipwizards.co.uk.

Wayne was a diamond - he drove up to Scotland from Newcastle and did a rough map. I then took the beast to a rolling road in Newcastle where he worked his magic. It might be best to bite the bullet and pay a professional tuner to sort it out for you.

I don't have the G22 anymore, as it went to a Ginetta enhusiast and good friend with more driving talent than I can muster - I could not do the car justice!

Thanks G4. I've emailed you. Sorry to hear you've got rid of the Ginetta. If it's too much for a pilot of your proven skills to handle, I dread to think what this thing of mine is going to do for this old fool's ego - if it ever flies that is....

Wanna swop it for a nice Pinto, one owner, never rallied!

Be good to see you back.

No thanks! Although I know what you mean.... Yes, I'm looking forward to a few outings, but I'm not overly confident the machine is going to be ready much before the summer. On the rallying front - I thought I saw you doing a spot of offroading at Combine a couple of seasons back!!??
Take care
