[quote=merc85;509597]What was the weather like dry?? Mate what sort of civic's were they?[/quote] They were standard 1.5 none vtec ones lol
Weather was lovely mate really dry, civics were a type r running low 14's and my mates who's was a 1.5 now a 1.6 vtech and he got a 15.1, dunno if its cos I'm using a v70 boost controller on my 850 but my boost on wot isn't as much as it is on half throttle and its inconsistent and pulses rather than boosts where it should be

I thought it was down to my Auto map on the Manual car at first. Like i say the forge unos sorted it out no probs,

[quote=merc85;509671]Why not??[/quote] i dont want to break the box really cos you cant control the boost so much like a manual car, i want my s70r done now
[quote=t5frankie;509677]i dont want to break the box really cos you cant control the boost so much like a manual car, i want my s70r done now[/quote] And Power starting dont lol... I use to use a MBC all the time wiv last auto..... Mind you that did go pop in the end lol
[quote=merc85;509680]And Power starting dont lol... I use to use a MBC all the time wiv last auto..... Mind you that did go pop in the end lol[/quote] exactly lol, when i didn't power start i was getting 2.7 60ft times which were giving me 15.7 quarters when i power started i was getting 15.3 quarters, i need to get my s70r done before i blow this motor up

[quote=p fandango;509685]atleast you can put a proper gearbox in it then lol[/quote] i'm loving the auto mate for mucking about in and in the real world its just quicker just plant your foot and your gone
[quote=t5frankie;509687]i'm loving the auto mate for mucking about in and in the real world its just quicker just plant your foot and your gone[/quote] nope, i'd never have one i'm afraid. A bit like i'd never go back to non-turbo now :biggrin:
[quote=p fandango;509689]nope, i'd never have one i'm afraid. A bit like i'd never go back to non-turbo now :biggrin:[/quote] well i have both lol
[quote=t5frankie;509690]well i have both lol[/quote] all you need is AWD then you can really be lacking the power lol
[quote=p fandango;509694]all you need is AWD then you can really be lacking the power lol[/quote] all you need is a working 19t'd 850 racer, maybe next year eh duane? lol
[quote=t5frankie;509696]all you need is a working 19t'd 850 racer, maybe next year eh duane? lol[/quote] she's getting there ;)
[quote=t5frankie;509677]i dont want to break the box really cos you cant control the boost so much like a manual car, i want my s70r done now[/quote] and the rods mate, very easy to do the rods on an auto with an mbc.

[quote=p fandango;509689]nope, i'd never have one i'm afraid. A bit like i'd never go back to non-turbo now :biggrin:[/quote] Not every car needs a turbo :wink:
[quote=LiamT4;509742]Not every car needs a turbo :wink:[/quote] yes it does :)
[quote=p fandango;509744]yes it does :)[/quote] Yes you are correct, i'v only got about 305bhp and 345lb/ft. It would go much better with a turbo, or two. :biggrin:
[quote=LiamT4;509747]Yes you are correct, i'v only got about 305bhp and 345lb/ft. It would go much better with a turbo, or two. :biggrin:[/quote] and you certainly need all that bhp to move your millions of tons lol
[quote=merc85;509751]and you certainly need all that bhp to move your millions of tons lol[/quote] plus the go-kart gearbox zapping 50% of the power lol
[quote=merc85;509751]and you certainly need all that bhp to move your millions of tons lol[/quote] Its not that heavy! lol [quote=p fandango;509756]plus the go-kart gearbox zapping 50% of the power lol[/quote] If my gearbox did sap 50% of its power, it would still have more whp than your tractor. :biggrin:
