I'll try and find them today, and send you some pictures. I put them in the boot of my car so it's just slight scratches from sliding around, nothing deep.

Hey noticed you swapped your OEM for Scorpion.
Is your original for sale?

I wasn't planning on bud, but it's only going to sit here so no reason why not. It's only run 13,000 miles so pretty much perfect condition.
What sort of price are you looking to spend?

Maxton designs buddy.

They state 'up to 2014' but they fit all the way up to the current model.

Bit of a risk but worth it for the outcome!

Thought your R sounded different when you passed me the other night

I've got the night blue GT that you'll have seen parked outside the bike shop ;)

So, Monday I went down to R-tech to get another map on the car. Unfortunately my clutch started slipping badly so we had to take the figures down a little. Managed a clean 334bhp 334ftlb without much slip, but she had more in her, so new clutch time and back I go!

Few pictures on the rollers captured by the guys down there

There's also a video but unfortunately I can't send it via my phone, will get it up soon!

Video on dyno.

Helix Clutch will be delivered from AKS tomorrow, along with Autotech HPFP internals, cam follower, pump seal and RS4 fuel return valve. Fitted saturday ready for the 'final' mapping session with r-tech to take her over 370bhp.

Should be quite the monster then.

Next stages will be looking into brakes (TTRS or Porsche), Oil catch can with full PCV delete, Runner Flap Delete, and then I think I'm stumped for ideas.

let me know what you guys think, will get another dyno video and printout up on the 10th when I'm back at R-Tech.

Thanks mate! At 334bhp, a hard launch I spin through up to 3rd before I actually get any traction.
I had my neutral rev limit dropped to 3k with a hard limiter on it so it handles it much better now, but it's quite funny to just spin up to stupid speeds before traction kicks in.

I can't imagine how ridiculous it'll be once I'm at 2+ but I'm sure it'll be a good laugh! Highly recommend!



Thanks guys for all your feedback :) will keep updated!

Old clutch was in good nick, but useless!

Image

Much better [emoji1419]

Cam follower was also in very good condition, but still replaced for piece of mind

Image


Hpfp internals were a breeze. All in and ready for the 10th

Threw up a boost fault after installing the new clutch, and after some investigating found that my N75 had been previously snapped and 'mended' using some form of putty.

Image

Atrocious. Replaced now and fees much better.

Also, installed a PCV delete, and have my catch can and lines here. Just unsure on mounting points. Thinking of removing the Carbon canister if it's not too much of a fiddle.
