after numerous recommendations from some of you on here(you know who you are)i decided to use Andy Carr to fit and map a simtek for my car.
all i can say is he is probably the most decent bloke around and very patient

i am over the moon with the way the car now goes and how smooth it is.it feels like a different car now and i will continue to use Andy from now on.

so again BIG BIG THANKYOU MR CARR

Tim

p.s sorry not been at recent meets was busy fitting turbo's etc....

 

Nice one mate, good to hear. Andrew gets my vote everyday

Did you get the als fitted too

 

whens it going on the rolling road then.

 

not sure yet arf and unsure which one to use,but it drives fantastic now with the simtek and has alot more power than before can't fault Andy as i had a few issues with the actuator while he was boost mapping(wastegate was jamming open)so kept stopping and adjusting but was still happening.
went back to Andy's house he lent me some tools and a few nuts,washers etc... so i could move the actuator further back.

we then went out again and tried for the boost map and all was good !!!

plenty of people would have sent me home to cure this problem then rebook but Andy just said if you can sort it at mine then we'll sort it.

top bloke and hospitality is second to none

Tim

p.s he did mention your car was pretty damn quick and was just a shame about everything thats happened regarding your engine hope you sort it soon mate.

 

Nice one Tim, can't wait to hear ya coming!!!HaHa!!!
Ye Andrew Carr is arealy nice guy an goes outa his way to make sure your extremely happy! Top bloke!!!!!

 

you could try the dyno down at area 52 its not that far away and its a dyno dynamics so should be quite accurate.we had a few probs with my air flow sensor when i was up at his last, due to the wires being ripped out of the socket by some shoddy back street garage that i dont want to mention,so he cut the sensor off his own car and fitted it to mine so the job could be finished,now thats service with a smile if ever i saw it.if he thinks my car was quick the last time he mapped it then i have a bit of a surprise for him next time he does it.

 

nice one arf !!! when will it be ready ???

whereabouts is area 52 then i'm in no rush just yet as i need to get hold oof a 1 bar actuator for better boost control(closed loop).

Jubby you WILL hear it coming ha ha,it's stupid loud

 

Back to back anti lagging should be fun

 

its just off m1 junction 28 (i think) its about a 50 min drive if traffics ok.hoping to have mine done for end of sept as i have been adding to the list of things to be done,also waiting on pistons to be made.carnt wate to get her back on the road now.

 

definatley frosty one for video me thinks

 

end of september isn't that scoobylive you going to have to run it all in then ??

 

think i will just be going as a spectator this time as its gunna be cutting it a bit short to get it run in as well.will see you all there for a chat though.
