And The T5 Went F****** Bang!

[Buf-Phoon]

haha I like my 5 speeds lads maybe also slow learner haha

IMO opinion you were extremely lucky with the last T5 , next one could be goneski the

first time the acccelerator meets the firewall.

Have you heard of Mal Wood

On stock injectors do you think it's a possibility that it's not actually running the advertised 300rwkw's?

Just thought I'd throw it out there.

If I doesnt have 300 rwkw then it must be awful close to it. It goes pretty hard.

Mick couldn't get more than ~280rwkw out of mine on stock injectors (6 speed manual BA MKII) but that's not to say it can't be done.. might just be a slightly riskier tune.

The T5 held up well with that power for that long though!

Ryan, I gotta say, I can't friggin stand the T5! I reckon its the biggest piece of crap box ever and I can't believe you are putting another one in! The shift is sloppy and I think the last time I shifted from 2nd to 3rd in one I was able to send a text message, scratch my nuts and re-program the radio presets!

Totally understand you need your car and T56s aren't cheap, but fark me dead man, you are gonna be up sh*t creek again in no time unless you drive like a grandpa from now on!

End rant...

C'mon Pat, tell us what you really think...

Not to mention the bicep workout going from 1st to 2nd on a cold morning!!

the dyno sheet he posted up of the tune was rather lean... around 13.1 iirc...

[Prove It]

LOL im in the process of replacing mine now. I was cruisin at about 70 in 5th gear (silly I know) and just accelerated and the input shaft bearing was gone. Drove it round for a few weeks but shortly after I smashed 3rd gear, then second gear, then it started get stuck in 1st and reverse

Cos im unbeleibaly lazy I converted it to the 4spd auto (which is gettin a rebuild at SA RACE with a 3500 stally )

I ran 310 thru my t5 for 6 months b4 it went bang . . . :wacko:
