BF Mk 2, not unopened anymore, not stock turbo anymore

[Tom Tucker]

Car is in for full send tune lads. Hopefully I've got some good news in a week or so.

Only issue I had during run in period was some crank position sensor gremlins. I replaced the sensor with a new genuine one and it made no difference, so I'm hoping it's a Haltech settings thing

Gota love the build up to a full send tune!

Bloody exciting stuff mate 👍

Progress report.

530kw @ 21psi.

It comes on even earlier and harder than run in tune. I'll post a comparison when it's all finished, but it looks like it will be a handful. 

Running out of rear housing (it's only a 1.01). Expected this. And ignition issues are creeping in.

Looks like I'll have to throw the PRP R35 kit in, and look at a bigger rear housing later on.

Good result there, sounds about right for what it is. Gonna push it further or leave it there?

 

I've run 700awkw/e85 on new stock bf coils and stock gas plugs gapped to 0.4mm. Gap down a little to 0.5mm and you should be fine.

 

Be sure to post up a clip of it accelerating to "110"kph or a couple of rolls.

Only half sent so far. It will take more. The tuner reckons he can get 25psi into the midrange and it will trail off up high. We shall see!

 

Oh, and I'll have to take some footage at the next happy laps. Looks like it might fry 4th gear coming on, which isn't ideal on the street haha

What clutch are you using to handle this power?

[Tom Tucker]

Mal Wood option 5 twin plate. It feels good after run in. 

[joncitizen]

No twin plate rattle?

Has good manners that will allow it to be driven through a Maccas Drive Through?

530rwkw with a 1.01 is pretty aggressive indeed haha, that should be a tonne of fun mate ! 

[Tom Tucker]

I dropped the PRP R35 coil kit over this morning (and FG rocker cover). It should allow a bit more boost to be fed in. Limiting factor will be rear housing and turbo shaft speed. Stay tuned....

 

@joncitizen pedal feel is lighter than the single plate. There is a bit of chatter, but its reducing every time it's driven during break in. Twin plate is the only option at this power level, and this is not a bad one so far. Could do a drive through easily.
