Yea of course  :smiley: come and see me as im a bit shy to go and introduce myself to new people  :ashamed:

Driving it around now it feels soo much different, spool seems about the same but it just has so much pull now!
Before with both front tyres warm it would wheelspin in 2nd but not for too long (225 toyo r888s) now today with the tyres nice and sticky in the 16 degree heat it wheespins all through 2nd and most of the way through 3rd (thats not trying to provoke it spinning either)
The pull feels soo much stronger even with it mapped how it is!
Its really hard to explain.... but it sort of feels like standard.... but with shed loads more power and torque! no nasty spiky bits in the delivery and no massive slab of torque to work round!

Cant wait to feel it when its fully mapped  :grin:

Oh yea the Eibach ARBs are mega! there both adjustable too which is a bonus! i forgot to weigh them but they feel alot lighter than the usual upgraded ARBs, initial response to them is that the car corners allot flatter with them fitted! paired with the Club sports it feels so planted on my setup! Nice and oversteery when you want it to be, but if your driving on the limit its not going to turn round and bite you! very very impressed!  :congrats:

anyway, i cant wait to get out to the nurburgring now! one week to go  :jumping: :pomppomp:

Janner_Sy:
What are you planning mod wise for after the hybrid is mapped and you have finished the ring trip,

jabbalad:
How long is a pice of string.... haha

Immediate thing will be MWI, a diff and Uprated engine mounts!

then it will be a case of what products we want to develop and test on it, as it is my own personal car but its also the main development tool for Jabba....
I think my goal is to get the engine right (valves, pistons rods and so on!) then develop our own kit to go for some proper power  :happy2:

I will be looking to do a few other bits too, like different seats and loosing some weight out of it but without making it a car that wont be nice to drive everyday!  :smiley:

Will see what happens :happy2:


Janner_Sy:
well its near the end of the day, so the good news is.......
