Thunder Road 0-190mph in 27 seconds!

[jamiep]

Considering this was low boost (coil pack problems we think causing it to missfire at high boost) i was pretty happy with this.


Big thanks Jez/HSV forum for letting me attend

Car looked and sounded awsome Mr P! It never ceases to amaze me how the stock block etc puts up with what you do to it!

Shame about the missfire otherwise 200 could have been on the cards with the weather we had.

I've got some vids of yours off the line so will post them up later.

Roger and I winced at the abuse you unleashed on that poor car. You nutter! Very quick and very impressive, well done mate

[TerryS]

Well done Jamie, genuinely surprised it didn't get higher TBH but a 76 should help!

[jamiep]

Cheers guys, i keep expecting it to give up but it keeps on taking it, not bad for a stock (aside 256 cams) 15 year old lump.

I was hoping for more tbh with a rather bad missfire, only way i could get rid of it was to lower the boost to 1.4bar with the help of Ryan over the phone.

Looked great to me Jamie. I could hear those booms from a mile behind. Great. Bring on the new lump.
