Too much torque?

[Damo]

So you're keeping it then mate
You know it makes sense. You'll only miss it if you do get rid, everybody does.

Yeah the cars hit 250hp a few times before but the torque has never been quite that high, it usually hit 280 lb/ft or thereabouts.
The only mods I've made since the last time I had it rr'd are the CAI kit (had standard airbox with Green panel filter before) and the Forge TIP. The car did feel a bit pokier after fitting each of those so they must be helping things.

Jabba ftw

I think forge do quote a decent improvment in torque cant remember exactly what mind.

Trouble is it stops quicker than it goes now

People have there speculations about jabba and there rollers, but they seem to hit pretty decent figures on other rollers too, so IMO and after going out in yours its a very strong map.

The brakes are awesome mate
Only problem is the pads. They squeal like mad after some heat gets into them. I was hoping they would get better after some mileage was put through them but they seem to be getting worse. Might be changing them sooner than expected as they're driving me nuts.

Dont blame ya, DS2500`s FTW!

 

[turbo009]

agree ds2500 FTW there what i am buying next for mine

 

[ian_cupra]

same power as my hybrid

 

[Damo]

Yours is a hybrid

Why are the figures so low? Shouldn't yours be about 300bhp?

 

[ian_cupra]

it feels like more than 250, but i'm waiting on a manifold for it, hence low figures really

did pull a 13.16 at pod though

 

[Damo]

Have you got any rr graphs for it yet? I've thought about going hybrid myself and it'd be good to see the power curves for bhp and torque.

 

[ian_cupra]

er i only have one, and i had a massive missfire on it so its not the best graph, i'll see if i can find it later and get it scanned in
