Nice result
I always thought the standard VXR injectors were maxed out around 300bhp though...

Thats the standard C20LET ones, the VXR ones flow a lot more than the yellows do.

yes it was awsome mate past everything on the 7 sessions i did over the two days didnt get hot once oil/water wise but had two problems, second session saturday tubular manifold got that hot it burnt through the breather on the rocker to dipstick and spat oil on the manifold causing an engine bay fire and the carbon bonnet caught fire underneath, very scary watching your engine bay go up in flames but the marshalls put it out, newbreather and wipe down it was ready to go again sunday (today) did 3 sessions and snapped a cv joint, went home got a new one and did a further 2 sessions, few cars i picked off that i was proud of
audi r8
time attack evo
various other evos mainly 6's and fq's
few scoobies
few skyline r32 gtr's
280bhp exige
never got passed once in all 7 sessions even started lapping people through the session.
alls well just needs a tidy up and proper clean but performed amazing and didnt melt evan running 13.8/9s arf
buttt........ found out the pump has a low voltage causing it to run lean top end where all the voltage is being drained checked battery same again 11-12v checked alternator 13-14 volts so im sticking a couple of earths on tommorrow and checking fuel pump voltage then if its better go get it setup again!
smoke on gear changes was probably down to fuel have a few vids of flames folowing me round the track out the exhaust also it was breathing due to oil movement in the engine so need to get myself a catch tank!
anybody else see it?

i saw you saturday afternoon at 4.15 you were on at the same time as my 3 mates, a black gt4, a silver gt4, a silver type r and a red s13
they all said you were shifting like! it was exactly that the pull you had coming out of that brow was back end really squated! looked to corner well too, on one of the laps my mate in the type r pulled over as you were both coming over the brow to let you thro
Very impressive to say the least, and fair play to you for repairing the car twice and getting back on it
Ps i know you passed alot of those cars but alot of them werent pushing it to full extent, as that time attack evo was immpressive to say the least when it was doing its proper flying laps, same with a few of the other cars, but my mate with the black gt4 is running 310bhp and he said how quick you were moving in comparison to him

i had a word with alot of the drivers of the above cars and they said no matter how they pushed them they could catch me so gave up trying! that session you saw me on was the one it caught fire im surprised you didnt see it as i came off? the car handles awsome think i have got the spec perfect now, going to ditch the carbon bonnet, get a one off louvered bonnet made some bonnet raisers and a heatsheild for the manifold then try again, very impressed with the car as i have not long built it, i was pulling 155mph down under the dunlop bridge just to compare against any other cars,

155 shit! fair play if you spoke to the drivers.
when you came off the track you were near the back of the pack, my mates were near the front so i walked up through the gates as they came off. yea prob a good idea, less to catch fire, thought about reducing your morrettes to one light and air feeds into the engine to help with the engine cooling process??
