As long as you have a motorsport style 15 wheel (larger clearence) you will be able to use the kit.

Hmm, Will they fit under Pro Race 1.2's? Doubt it

[luca]

Not sure Max..

If you see me at a show we can whizz a wheel off and you can try .



Right the car is going on dyno for mapping i have been informed tomorrow

[Turboboy67]

I'll await a text message with the results then

Cant wait for us to be flying round Combe together (for the first lap anyway )

[luca]

Im off to Jkm now to go see and see how the car is doing, i shall post results up later and let you know the power acheived.


slightly nervous, but excited.

[Excursion]

saucy

[Ben_frst]

damm it was hoping to catch you online this morning was gonna pop in and be nosie

[fiend]

Can't wait to hear the results!

[cowie20]

hope there is some videos...want to hear the noise

[luca]

Evening boys, well a long day and my ears are still ringing.
Started off with full check on the car, all levels checked and tyres inflated for the dyno.
Once the car was strapped down and hooked up to the dyno we warmed the car up to full operating temps.

After several runs and more boost added / map adjusted we were seeing some excellent figures for the boost being held.

However mapping was halted due to lack of support from the actuator. needs uprating.
Just shy of a few HP of 400HP

Jim from JKM and Nik (who owns the 500hp 180mph Capri) took the car out for some final checks..

They came back after what seemed like an age, and reported good things! Many of which where swear words.... and grinning with some slight words of warning. BE CAREFUL!

I then took it out for a quick run and I well its insane at the current power. Not a hint of lag and with the longer reach on the throttle pedal all is controlable, if you plant it to the floor the car lights up the yoko prada tyres (didnt run with 888's today ) but back of a smidge and re-apply its instant power and grip again like a N/A car to drive. Now with essentially 400hp u get a slight snag on the steering wheel when the power is delivered but that its! No zig zagging like you would expect a 400hp FWD car to give.
Still more to be had though im told, BUT not sure how far we are going to go as its border line nuts!

Monday we will continue further, I will post up results/graphs then.

All in all a very very happy day and a huge thanks to Jim (JKM Performance) for his efforts today.

[black2]

jesus that sounds like some fun. 400 horse power mk3 fiesta it must be maddly quick.

Gareth.

[cowie20]

thats crazy! but i like it

[Turboboy67]

Stunning mate

Makes all the effort you've put in worth while, really pleased for you.

Do they reckon 450 bhp is possible then ?

[- Danny Boy -]

Bloody hell that is insane!! I would love to see that on the roads!!

Did you get any videos on the dyno?

[luca]

At the current look of the graph I think it would easily make that Hp...

However driving the car today highlighted what I actually built the car for.=TRACK.

Im number chasing now and need to cap the power around what it is now.
Jim text me saying the same, so 420hp willbe the final number.

If i wanted a topspeed car or a 1/4mile drag racer then we would continue, but for track its seriously mental as it is.

You will love it Shaun!

[Minstral]

sounds good mate cant wait to see this flying round a track.

[HCS PIMP]

i want to see the video of the final dyno shoot out this will no doubt be a beauty

[luca]

[filtra]

[Minstral]

awesome

[FRST SILVER]

sounds lovly mate

[JamieFRST]

Well done on the power results, sounds like a jet in the second vid

Look forward to seeing it on the track at combe

[- Danny Boy -]

Sweet

[jimmyesh]

Bloody brilliant! Well done Luke, this car is an absolute animal!

[Max M4X WW]

Great stuff!

The Capri you speak of isn't the supercharged V8 one is it?

[M1K3Y_B]

Sounds mental

[luca]

Great stuff!

The Capri you speak of isn't the supercharged V8 one is it?

No mate this is totally standard looking from outside but running a 500hp cosworth engine.

The other Capri also in Portsmouth is a twin turbo v8 thats not set up yet though properly.

[Ruishy1]

simply outstanding, so many guys on here building complete monsters and spectacular beasts,

mucho respect

[corrupt_panda]

Incredible motor u got there

[FRSJON]

nice one luke,cant wait for a go...

[Turboboy67]

Nice

What is the rev. limiter set at mate ?

[luca]

7800 mate, not wanting to push it too hard.

Peak power is at 7200 anyway so not much need to keep reving it.

[SEG1]

lovely mate.cant wait for mine to be done

[rs-tom]

very nice mate i think i would have brown trousers if i drove that

[Matt_fez]

Outstanding mate, you must be over the moon (slight understatement probably!!)

What sort of boost you running to make that power?

You are gonna have so much fun on track - I'm very jealous!!

Well done

Matt

Cheers Matt, so far we are upto 26psi boost which gives the 400hp with 2 or 3bhp more or less. I think im allowed to round it up lol.

Will end up running it at 420hp as its brutal as it is.
Engine will take more as will turbo but it will become unusable on track with more.
