Ryan.G Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Looks good, not so keen on the gay music:d Happy with the rear ARB mate? Gay Music!! That block Party song is Epic! We all know what a supra sounds like. Plus there was some funny noises from the passenger Very happy with the rear arb mate just what the car needed. Chris Wilson was bang on the money! Its soo much controllable now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car was only running 1bar in the video as well due to having to fit a bung in the back due to it being a 100dba day and with the superdragger its 104db. Man did it make the EGTs go up. Had to run 10:1 at top rpm to just keep my mind happy. Must have only been 450bhp today i would say. Got a friend making me an inconel exhaust soon and im aiming for 98dba limit.

Ryan.G Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 How did you find the rear KADs with the new pads Ryan? Alot better than the Uk rears but still not getting enough breaking to the rear. Really need to lose the servo as the feel it gives is not the best and sometimes it kinda sticks on when cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan.G Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 So abit of an update! Over the last couple of monthes have just been trying to use the car on track as much as possible and get some real confidence in the car. I Had to swap the superdragger exhaust to a new Whiftbitz one due to noise restrictions and must say it has worked a treat. Only 98db now at 4000rpm and 100db at 5000rpm. Well made bit of kit and great price! although in the next few weeks it is going to be chopped up and remade in Inconel for weight saving. Had a full on day on tuesday at silverstone with a good friend giving lessons through out the day and must say that it really did help!! Here are some pics from the day Big thanks to Steve for taking the pics. Fantastic work! If anyone wants any in hi res let me know. Also Had a nice phone call from Mr P yesterday to say my car is on the front cover of banzai!! Result! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Whiffin Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Looks good mate. I thought Inconel was heavier than stainless steel? I'm getting mine redone in titanium pretty soon, must be lighter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Inconel was heavier than stainless steel? I'm getting mine redone in titanium pretty soon, must be lighter? Where Inconel is alot stronger the pipe thickness doesn't need to be so thick. So it ends up weighing alot less. All the F1 exhaust pieces are pretty much made up of inconel. Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
