Rica 310

[Enigma666]

Fitted a RICA 310 over the weekend to my C70 T5 (wow )

Only thing is I now seem to get a slightly.....jolty acceleration like spinning the wheels (which I am not)...happens in all gears...anyone any ideas?

Cheers

It could be a problem with the boost being unstable i had this problem and put a different boost controller on which sorted the problem

[Enigma666]

Thanks Pete....would have thought this would happen with the standard ECU levels but guess not

Luckily I got another BCS from Nads
Just gotta find the damn thing now lol

Welcome to the world of remaps !!!

I always found when first mapped it took a few miles for the ECU to adapt to the new parameters

It's not one of those expensive "revs are rising but I'm not going any faster" syndromes is it??

lol nah....definitely goes better in all gears so not a syndrome...unless I am just looking for reasons to fit a Garrett lol

Ta very much must say a re-mapped T5 is a lot more impressive than my T4

Still doing the damn judder.....based on what Moppy said is it worth d/c the battery for a while then letting it go again and see if that helps?

I would say anything like that is worth a try i hope you get it all sorted also have you read the codes and if so does it throw any

A remap often shows up a weak BCS (been there done that) so if you still have the problem after a couple of days driving that would be my next port of call.

Are you sure that after the T4 youre not dropping off the gas because youre scared when it comes on boost

Interesting? Mine gets a BSR stage 2 remap on wednesday, so i will let you all know the outcome.....

Awesome to both you and Pete for suggesting that luckily I have a spare one (although the IPD is looking good about now).

No codes....no CEM....no nothing....just jittery boost...doesn't do it on the standard Ecu so must be the BCS...either way, time to get my tools out again lol

Where'd I put that damn trout to smack you upside the head with lol
Oooh here it is
In all honesty though....damn does it fly compared to the T4....feels heavier (cause it is) but when she moves she reallllly moves love it to pieces

That would be really useful thanks

I loved the wee T4 its the perfect car for bobbing about in with a little fun factor but the mapped T5 is where the real fun starts - I think everyone should have one of each lol!

I will i will just as soon as i get a job...not at the top of my list at the minute. ( well it is just don't tell the GF.)

[Enigma666]

Ok.........having thumbed through Vadis for what I am after.....can anyone tell me where the BCS is located....and......what the hell it looks like? I have a part from Nads which came of an S70 T5 of the same year....so it stands to reason I have one of these parts in there (and it looks like the thing I swapped in the T4).

However....there is a unit just off the airbox (under the damn MAF I swapped typically) and Vadis seems to point at this as the BCS....anyone shed some light for a T5 convert?

[Enigma666]

Ignore me found out what part it is.....and low and behold it is the part I didn't get of Nads lol.....f'in typical

Anyone got a BCS they wanna part company with?

Ok....now extra confused....a look on ebay has the bcs looking like this?



Is that correct or should it look like this?

[t5 pete]

Hi enigma it should look like the bottom pic its the one right at the bottom at the right hand side i have a brandnew one which i bought thinking it was the bcs but turned out to be a air leak it cost me £42 from rufe if you want it you can have it for £30 delivered its never been used so pm me if your intrested.
cheers pete
