GT4 Zed Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 (edited) Yup! i know i should have a build thread and keep everyone updated about my project and eventual Sc-ing of my zed(bumble bee) but i just dont have the time. I should employ Octet to do this for me Secondly I'm very modest Anyway, since this is already out i should as well confirm that I'm FI'ed now and though it has been problematic Mark @abbey has done a sterling job making the beast safe until when i can sort out the issues we encountered. I always knew it was a risk going balls out with this but the thing is that i can, since i have a forged engine in the pipeline. I will use this thread to update my progress and I will do a formal build thread in the relevant section when i can get my biaatch to do it!! The car is rev limited to 6k rpm( FYI Revup upper limit is 7k rpm) and has had a lot of timing and cam overlap pulled out to keep boost and power down but still the beast wants to get out.

slinky Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I can confirm that it sounded splendid at relatively low RPM before mapping... This thing is going to be a beast! Quote
