ZMANALEX Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Well, where do I start. After 3 years of pain I have eventually overcome the heat soak and high temperature issues that has troubled my car. With the help of Abbey I have managed to squeeze considerable more power and torque from it and reduce the running temperatures. The car is now quite comfortable running 1.2 bar. Had it's shakedown at KRC on Friday evening and was totally trouble free and heading back tomorrow evening (Monday) for another session. The car was no slouch before but it now commands your total respect. Abbey's Dynapack Chassis Dynamometer was used for the mapping so the numbers in the graphs below are from the hubs Quote
