car waqs up at SITECH RACING today to get the management tweeked and the car on the rollers
We had some issues with the communication between the software and ECU, so couldnt do the work i wanted to raise the rev limiter , and maybe adjust the ignition advance, but in truth it dont need it
Got the car on the rollers , and after warming it up, and doing a couple of small runs, Simon then went for a power run, but the sandwich plate for the take off for the remote filter, split in half, dumping all the oil over the floor and the new rollers, sorry Simon, Thankfully Simon managed to shut the car down in time , so no damage done by the looks of it
He did however managed to get a At The Wheels (ATW ) figure for the car on the rollers before it went wrong, and it hit 178 bhp ATW at 7000 rpm, car will rev to 7300 rpm as per the limiter on the car management
so car is well over 200 bhp, and should be about 220 bhp at the flywheel when it does go flat out, and if WEBCON can increase the rev limiter to 7800 it could be around 240bhp, so very very happy, just need to replace the broken parts, and try again
The cars sounding absolutely mighty , and the noise the car was making on the rollers was crazy, Annette has tken some pics and video footage , ill need to upload it later
