Ofac you'll be lucky to be pushing 200 where as cossie webber is more mappable on 803 injectors far more options so how is it a waste of money i can run even more boost with a forged bottom end which it will surpass your engine spec and setup

Re: My frst boosting 18 psi about 240 bhp happ
I have got a fully forged bottom end mate and steel crank with a stage 3 head running green injectors with a stage 3 turbo grs evo 3 intercooler and was set up by a friend of mine who seriously knows his onions when it comes to the cvh. Just think that with the money it costs for cosworth management is there any point unless wanting 300 horsepower. Then when you way up the costs involved to reach this level you may as well go zetec. My engine owes me the best part of 4k just the lump where I have just built a zetec for half that albeit with second hand rods which I had cheap off of here which I will be running stand alone management. I will easily see 300 now and not risk blowing it up every time I rag the fun lumps off it where as the 30 year old designed cvh will possibly let go at any moment and drink fuel. The cosworth management is 30 years old now so why you think its an upgrade I don't know its not simple

RSTurboNutter,
Who made your downpipe up? is it a custom job or is it a pipe that merges onto the T3 downpipe?
I have a T34 at the moment on a Cossie Exhaust housing and looking for anyone else who had this and how they got round it?

Re: My frst boosting 18 psi about 240 bhp happ
Iv run 22psi ofac for a good 6-8months on a t2 turbo with a f**cked actuator, never had a single problem until 5th gear which was when it hit boost cut, then afterwards with a t3 and 165 chip I ran 16psi for a good year and no problems or boost cut at all.
I don't see the point in webber management either its old hat, not MANY places like tuning it all the looms by now are buggered and for the price youl pay to get it fitted and running well on a cvh you might aswell get newer better standalone management , like ofam ecu or omex/megasquirt . Ofam ecu is £410 and you don't need a loom or s**t with it, comes with megasquirt 2 based software and pretty much anywhere maps it . Can't beat it for money against gains or ease
240bhp cvh engine must be a right hoot tho! I'd imagine its a bit laggy tho
I went to zetec turbo for reliability cvh has the capabilities but not if you want to use it everyday and hard abuse , blown many bits n pieces on a cvh engine with not even 200hp lol

No I don't and wind ya fudgekin neck in son .. I don't because of the age of the management , I didn't once say if couldn't do the job, but for the fact all the ecu's and wiring looms are a good. 20 years old now majority have been cut n shut in places and there has been a fair few ecu's fry themselves over the years. Plus not many places like to map coast management aswell so makes it more expensive travelling to have it mapped , plus all the extra sensors brackets and bollcoks you have to put up with to make it fit, its a more expensive and less realisable route than standalone. Yes I did get. 22 psi out of a t2 mate the actuator was siezed shut I had to cut the rod off as it didn't move enough to come off the pin, maybe you should start listening to people instead of thinking your the long of knowledge. And more people would reply to you instead off bitching all the time.
I know what iv had out my car and what it's boosted on ofac and many people have seen it boost at these levels and my boost gauge has been swapped in and out of several people's cars so I know that doesn't over read
End of the day I don't care if you think its true or not I know its happened and plenty of people I know have been in the car and seen it happen . Just think rather than getting mouthy and constantly whining on this forum do Somin constructive and it could have a positive effect. Seen too many threads started by you that's either just moaning about some s**t or utter nutsack that you'd need a decoder to work out what youv typed
