Sam

I was watching the boost as we were powering along.Right enough it seemed to drop off from 22 to 18 as the revs increase.Pete said yous tried the dawes but not a good result..did it do the same??
Maybe try adjusting the actuator & reset the mbc and disconnect the boost solenoid.The TD05 should be able to hold stable at that pressure without too much trouble.Its booked in for a oil change this week, so we'll try a few things with it.

Keep you posted m8
Dave

 

Now there's an offer you can't refuse Look out for Pete and his Big Red - he can be gentle or rough - whichever you prefer

 

well laddies, im gona make my first appearance up at crail wiv ma wee red scooby!!!

keep and eye out for BAZ 2780, im sure u will spot me!!!

sadly, the only racing i will be doing is on GT3 on the PS2 so i will be more likely to be spectating with my sounds thumping and my tv screens on display!!!

cya all up there!!!

ps - if anyone fancies taking me for a spin in their pride and joys, there r more than welcome!!!

 

Guys

Thers a few of us meeting up for a cruise down to crail on the 24th.

Dave

 

Bugger

As I thought might happen I wont be running the full power I hoped for as its gonna be too rushed to get it in time for Crail altho it WILL be ready for the next one I go to

Guess I'll need to make do with about 1 bar and around 250-260BHP

 

Richie,

My boosts up n down like a pro`s drawers jnow m8 but there`s still a week 2 get it right All goin well I`ll b out wiv the top banana 2morrow sortin it out.

CC,

I`m glad u got a good sense of humor m8, u r gonna need it 2 keep a stiff upper lip 1nce i`ve mowed u r 4rse

Pete

 

Excuses ?!?!

Na mate, I'm gutted at the same time but at least me water injection arrived today to cheer me up a bit. Once its plumbed in, its off to get mapped on the unichip for 3D water injection

Might need to see about upping the boost in preparation for the next Crail p'raps


BTW, whose giving me a go in the passenger seat then ?? I'm really intersted in that White EVO (Dave's I think) in the video just to fell what its like launching like he did versus that Cosworth

 

i should be there dont know yet but probaly will go





cheers colin

 

Ritchie,

The white evo in the vids is still Johns

Dave`s mota is the white UK scoob, as per earlier picture.

Pete

 

Cool

John/Pete - if ya see this, how's about taking a passenger

 

Pete, yer right mate, it's still in my grasps. I've wrestled with changing it for a while, but there is 'nothing' that take my fancy over it.....in a sensible price bracket!!

I've resisted the tuning bug so far but yer man Sam has got me turning. Get some money freed up around Easter and I'll soon catch the virus.

I'll probably not make the 24th as I'm on nightshift, but I'll be making an appearance soon

 

Richie, 1st time I'm there mate...no problem.

 

John,

Go 4 it m8 "u know u wanna"
That mota of u r s is more than a good starting point 4 some serious "upgrades". Like u said though 1nce u got the bug
Hell he`s got me @ it again as-well

Pity u r gonna miss the opener this year bud but hey no £ no play, an work fuels the mota eh C ya soon m8.

Richie,

We`ll c wot the SP is on Sunday m8, all goin well I`ll give u a run

Pete

 

Richie

Your welcome to a passengers run in my scoob..

It should be wearing its new AWD livery by then so no chance of missing me

cya there
Dave B

 

Dave,

How come u get stickers made up so qwik ?
I`m still waitin on mine (scoobyumods) from last year

BTW u checked u r answerin m/c ?

Pete

 

anyone driving through from edinburgh wanna meet up on the way to Crail?

prolly leaving edinburgh bout 8.45

Al

 

Anyone tell me where in Crail it is and what time? Can u just come along & spectate? TD04 does not a drag car make

 

just drive through Crail, then you get to a bloody awful piece of road (when tyre noise increases you'll know your on it ) drive for a few mins along this road and you will see old aircraft hangers on the RHS, its about there!! theres signs where you go in and a sign 100yds previous to the entry.

err thrashin starts at 11 i think, can arrive before that though! 6quid usually for entrance/spectation

if you get lost just follow some modded mota from crail in the hope that its coming to the thrash!

c u there
Al

 

Thanks

 

john,

you could follow me,I could meet you at MacDees/KFC in Kirkcaldy just after 10.

 

I'll need 100BHP extra to keep up with you the way you go round corners..

 

only when I make it all the way round ,look in drivetrain at mattski2's fmic thread,to see why I do not like thrashing it on the road,except when the temptation is too strong and it would be rude not too .theres no way I would have got away with that on the road.

 

Waaaw Dave,

Your cars actualy clean in that pic on page one, is that when you first bought it

See you there

Scoty

alright John B.

how u doin??

i will maybe see you up there wiv my new ice install, interior, suspension and number plate BAZ 2780!!! i think my ice will blow even michael jacksons head off!! literally. 3 x 12's subs, 2 swedish amps, great 6x9's and a good front end, oh not to mention the ps2 and tv monitors in sun visors!!!!

i think there is a load of people meeting at mcdees but not sure at what time. i know there r aload meeting at mcdees at the bridge. anyone else meeting up locally?? when and where???

i may be going up earlier (7am!!!!), depends if XS motorsport wana take in my car or not as 2 of my pals have been asked to show their cars so im sending pics of mine thru to see.

cya aw there!!!

 

Your car sounds fabulous Barry - can't wait to see it. Mine is little changed from last time except about 20% power at the top and rather more in the mid but still on pea shooter turbo.

 

john,

you know anyone who might wana fit a set of lowering springs and a new steering wheel for me??

 

Don't know any "amateurs" that will do it personally. Springs require safety precautions because of some very unpleasant injuries. I would also be cautious if the steering wheels involve airbags - from safety and expense if it goes wrong. After springs you need the geometry done I understand. Maybe best to get these two done professionally?

 

john,

cheers anyway. i have arranged for a "pro" to do the work on sat.

do you know when your going up?? found any more local scooby owners who are making the journey??

there is a heap of "dunfermline boy racers" meeting up at mcdonalds between 9:30am and 10am. supposedly a big convoy of them are all going up, think ur scooby might look a little outa place tho wiv the novas and cavvy gsi's!!!
