Been awhile since an update. The new built engine is running well. I have been chasing miss fires and oil leaks but everything is sorted now. Mike from Xero Limit has looked at and tweaked the tune. Engine feels strong. Still running 8psi boost and a redline of 7500 rpm. I have a big upgrade coming which will see a jump in boost pressure.
Below is a video and photos from recent event a Jack’s Hill Climb. This was a non-timed practice event organised by a friend. Grip from the new tyres is mega. I can just floor the throttle out of most corner and it just hooks up and goes. The new tyres did change the balance of the car with the car tending to oversteering on corner entry. The front sway bar was adjusted one hole stiffer and that has solved that issue. The tyres are so sticker I can’t do handbrake turns with the factory handbrake anymore. Hydraulic handbrake is on the to do list.
