[quote=jayeastanglia;424201]not taking my wife as she may moan after 30mins of being there thats theres nothing to do..[/quote] You could always treat her to a Pub lunch buddy, foods good and at a resonable price.
My missus won't come to any car event where she can't sit down after a day in 2002(approx) at the Birmingham Motorshow where we did all areas without stopping once only to grab a drink at a van. She collapsed in the flat once back and slept for hours.

think i may have proved today that saffys are the best
[quote=t5frankie;424677]think i may have proved today that saffys are the best[/quote] Why's that then?
[quote=LiamT4;424681]Why's that then?[/quote] had it on the dyno unmapped.........results to follow
Hurry up then! lol So its running a 19t and standard map, still got the greens in? Hows the fueling?
[quote=LiamT4;424687]Hurry up then! lol So its running a 19t and standard map, still got the greens in? Hows the fueling?[/quote] 19t decat and blues and mbc have a guess
[quote=t5frankie;424688]19t decat and blues and mbc have a guess[/quote] Tell me what boost its running first.
[quote=LiamT4;424689]Tell me what boost its running first.[/quote] well it has a standard map which i swapped mine for with adam280
[quote=t5frankie;424690]well it has a standard map which i swapped mine for with adam280[/quote] If it's a standard map they can't run more than 12 ish psi can they?
[quote=AndysR;424691]If it's a standard map they can't run more than 12 ish psi can they?[/quote] yeah a bit
[quote=t5frankie;424690]well it has a standard map which i swapped mine for with adam280[/quote] Ok so it can't go above 14-15ish. 270bhp@wheels.
[quote=t5frankie;424692]yeah a bit[/quote] 275 hp/317 ibft? with that sort of boost on a 19T and a standard map..
[quote=LiamT4;424694]Ok so it can't go above 14-15ish. 270bhp@wheels.[/quote] at the wheels so you saying about 340 at the fly? i wish lol
[quote=t5frankie;424696]at the wheels so you saying about 340 at the fly? i wish lol[/quote] pmsl, I was thinking the same...
[quote=AndysR;424695]275 hp/317 ibft? with that sort of boost on a 19T and a standard map..[/quote] nope
[quote=t5frankie;424698]nope[/quote] Higher or lower?
there was a v70 there with 450bhp
[quote=t5frankie;424700]there was a v70 there with 450bhp[/quote] I'd love to know how accurate this rolling road is...
[quote=AndysR;424699]Higher or lower?[/quote] higher lol
[quote=t5frankie;424702]higher lol[/quote] On a standard map....? What is your exact current spec?
[quote=t5frankie;424696]at the wheels so you saying about 340 at the fly? i wish lol[/quote] I go for about 15%loss, which would be about 310bhp which is more than daves, so probably not then! lol 260bhp then, must be good otherwise you wouldn't have said that saffys are the best!
[quote=AndysR;424703]On a standard map....? What is your exact current spec?[/quote] thats what i thought but adam has had the car for 4 years and i had to drill off the strap to get it out so is standard
[quote=t5frankie;424705]thats what i thought but adam has had the car for 4 years and i had to drill off the strap to get it out so is standard[/quote] My strap would have to be drilled to remove the turbo tuner ;)
298.1bhp whoohoo cant wait for the custom map now
[quote=AndysR;424707]My strap would have to be drilled to remove the turbo tuner ;)[/quote] it had the original big flat bolt head in the top
[quote=t5frankie;424708]298.1bhp whoohoo cant wait for the custom map now[/quote] On a standard map, rolling road sounds a little optimistic to me. How were your afrs?
So what was it at the wheels.
[quote=LiamT4;424712]So what was it at the wheels.[/quote] Are you kidding!
405nms
[quote=AndysR;424713]Are you kidding![/quote] i want to know what the losses were.
[quote=t5frankie;424715]405nms[/quote] 298 ibft then..
[quote=AndysR;424711]On a standard map, rolling road sounds a little optimistic to me. How were your afrs?[/quote] it was a maha dyno
[quote=AndysR;424717]298 ibft then..[/quote] at hlm last year with my 18t i got 455nms at 22psi
[quote=t5frankie;424718]it was a maha dyno[/quote] Same make of rolling road Rica used to test there off the shelf maps ;)
[quote=AndysR;424721]Same make of rolling road Rica used to test there off the shelf maps ;)[/quote] is that good or bad?
[quote=t5frankie;424724]is that good or bad?[/quote] Well.. people constantly knock Rica for quoting 304 hp for a stage one map on an 850... you tell me A rolling road is good for fault diagnoses and as a rough guide, I am not knocking the results you achieved but it does seem a little unrealistic for a standard map running not much more than standard boost.. Still as you say bring on the custom mapping :)
What were your figures at the wheels, did you manage to see those at all?
So what you getting at the wheels??
[quote=AndysR;424725]Well.. people constantly knock Rica for quoting 304 hp for a stage one map on an 850... you tell me A rolling road is good for fault diagnoses and as a rough guide, I am not knocking the results you achieved but it does seem a little unrealistic for a standard map running not much more than standard boost.. Still as you say bring on the custom mapping :)[/quote] for some reason i was running 16psi
Do you know what your power is at the wheels?

[quote=bigrotch;425430]Was good to see/ meet ya fella remember a constant 15psi on standad map is ya fuel cut turn ya mbc aim for 14psi as the temp is dropping it will rise anyway lol[/quote] turned it up to 13psi on the way home as stopped off at chelmsford to pick up parts for work on monday morning goes a bit better now..and fitted the cone filter i also got today as well off(think it was shrek had the red t5 who took 7 hours to get his engine in and out) took me 15 mins to do filter swap and 2 mins for psi adjustment..sounds even better next stop exhaust..
Looks like a good meet without any trouble making unlike any connected with T5D5 looking at other threads !!

[quote=LiamT4;425596]looked a good day. Wish we had a few more meets up here.[/quote] Mate, your telling me! There are no meets anywhere near me... I have to travel on average 120 miles to a meet.
Hi all was a good meet today, great to put some faces to names,meet new members and great to see some lovely cars turn up. once again must thank everyone for their input/help/parts loan etc etc to try to get to the root of my problematic t5. keep up the good work guys. will look forward to next month kind regards t5 steve

weather was spot on mate me and merc forgot cameras etc lol was good shame it ant closer to you mate
Was a good day and nice to catch up with everyone again, all cars looking great as always, although Niles your cleaning efforts put yours to shame ;) but I liked the wind deflectors. Special thanks to Niles, Sonic? and Emlyn for making the trip despite the distance and thanks to Steve for the ride in your V70, just shows that diesel's aren't the poor relation anymore with these modern D5's :) Good luck with the pcv change Steve, fingers crossed it resolves your problem.
Thanks to all. It was great to meet you all and thanks for the comments on the phase three. Sorry to have lowered the tone by bringing the only diesel but..... 460 nm of torque.... She does pull well. Oh and for the record I now know she pulls 35mph/1000rpm in sixth. Not going to say what RPM I did on the way home(if you know what I mean:-) )
Good to see that my shed of a V70 didn't make it into any photos.. Cheers guys see you next time..
[quote=JUDGENINJA;425663]Good to see that my shed of a V70 didn't make it into any photos.. Cheers guys see you next time..[/quote] If you don't think much of the car perhaps you'd like to sell the wheels ;)
Reading this with a feeling of envy... I hope the Ace Cafe thing in 2 weeks is as good. Seeyall there! ;)
[quote=JUDGENINJA;425663]Good to see that my shed of a V70 didn't make it into any photos.. Cheers guys see you next time..[/quote] Think ive a pic on my phone will add it tomo hopefully after ive sorted my fueling issue
