It was a good day out for the small number of 200's that arrived, good to see a few more faces i can put names to. intrestingly a couple of scooby drivers thought the s14a were skylines but as you can imagine we soon corrected them:sxoc: i know it was not organised as a shoot out but it did seem a bit like that with as the scoobys runing in the morning plus mine and the SX's in the afternoon straight after lunch. there was a couple of other cars including a 167bhp peugeot 106 gti, a 323bhp evo 2.
there was a little bit of disapointment for a ccuple of us, for not hitting the figures we hoped for.

i personally was disapointed with how my car performed i had hoped to crep over the 310bhp mark. as last time out last week i hit 307bhp at the fly with 317ftlbs torque @ 17psi dropping to 15psi. (not bad for tha standard turbo) :wack:

This time however i tweeked the actuator to 15.5psi rather than 15psi.
this gave me my power and torque quicker but the boost pressure dropped quicker and it leaned the fuel out at top end so the overal power dropped.
i achieved 296.7bhp and 314ftlbs torque at the fly still a respectable figure but disapointed non the less:cry: . i have now changed the setting back to how it was.

But all in all it was good to have a chat and catch up with the other members and show a few scoobys up :thumbs:

yea was good to catch up again mate, along with dave, dean and adam in their S13's.

I made 283.9bhp and about 321ftlbs torque which is an improvement on bhp but a small drop in torque, the AVC-R still needs setting up a bit more (need to play with the NE points feature) and could also do with an uprated actuator to hold a higher steadier boost.

I think most scoobs there were surprised by our results, it was only the newer ones making over 300bhp! That Evo2 was quite a shock I must admit :)
