Rs gordini progress thread!! (always being updated!)

[frediiii]

in that case you might want to talk him into swapping units for a new one with heavy discount. but first of all try to update the firmware. won't hurt and at least then you know

 

[benmc]

Yea I will do bud cheers for heads up bud!!

 

[benmc]

So had a bit of trouble with rs tuner so needs to be posted of to henk for a firmware update he needs to do it as its 180 and I can't do that until its 183 but that's only costing me postage to do it...
So I've bought my next part of inlet project a 70mm 135 degree bend went for blue in colour I wanted white but couldnt justify paying an extra 25 quid! Lol

 

[benmc]

So this baby came the other day and these two have been ordered also got a few more bits of pipe to buy but buying 1 step at a time

 

[benmc]

First pipe has arrived not buying anything else yet until I come back off hols spent a bit more than I thought this month so low on cash but hopefully the rest of induction kit will be done by end of oct

 

[benmc]

So everything has finally arrived for now induction kit I know not the best pic ( cheap iPhone back off eBay ) and also got the rs tuner back from henk all unlocked and firmware updated fully . The plan is to log data and bhp chart using rs tuner with standard engine then do te same with new induction and compare , then map the car with rs tuner map and compare again ill post all charts up etc too on here

 

[singlespeed]

If the filter is going infront of the wheeel arch, get a cheap rubber mat or something and attach this to the inside of the wheel arch louvers. The amount of crap that gets flung up through the vents it horrendous and will choke the filter realy quickly. A rubber mat made a huge difference to the engine bay staying clean on Karens motor

 

[benmc]

Cheers bud ill sort that Definatly !

 

[benmc]

Okay so new induction system is in ill get pics up soon!! As for the muck behind the arch on passenger side it was t too bad tbh so keeping an eye on it then decide weather to go full on rubber or a filter mesh...

Feels better but ill have to test on the rs tuner see how I compare and ill stick graphs up. Sounds insane too

Ill upload a video when I can also!

 

[benmc]

 

[benmc]

I'm not going to be sticking the graphs up anymore because they are too hard to keep accurate and even on standard run it varied on a fairly large scale ...

Quick update too
Adapter plate is almost done I just need the ports doing now then painting the outside plan is to get a custom map from henk too after then won't be much performance mods for a while ad want to get things painted etc have pics up soonish

 

[benmc]

16" turini's fitted and wow!! There loads better! Et is set wider and can feel it through car seems to hold to the road better for it and quieter on normal driving from the 17's and look amazing!

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Pics douche bag!!

 

[benmc]

I know ill get one tomorrow bud there still silver at mo there going white though

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Sounds Sexy!!

 

[benmc]

It should be by fcs ! Looks wise anyway see where I am performance wise I don't know where ill be at but got plans x

 

[benmc]

Okay so been a while since I've updated so here we go couple weeks back I gave the dini a detail (sorry for bad pics!) and on the pics it has its nice 16" wider sat turini's

These are eventually going white

Today I replaced my old gearbox mount with vibra technics new one .... WOW loads better!! And because you don't get torque movement anymore seems to put it through the wheels loads better!!

Tomorrow the 197 inlets will finally be going on hopefully with no issues !!

These are now also black !

 

[MovingShadow]

Some nice updates.. keep em comming!

 

[133_Ads]

Let everyone know about a difference (if any) the 197 inlet makes!!

 

[benmc]

I will do I never managed to get done the other day again! Work called me in also my adapter plate is only proto type so gains will probably be slightly better when I get better quality ones if gains are made
