No, same side though, but I think its unrelated. Previously both rockers failed simultaniously on cylinder 4, now it was the exhaust rocker on no. 3

Overboost is now set on 2.3 bar (3.3 PR) and ultimate rpm at 8K (soft cut at 7200), so I hope to never reach either :D

I did some work on a buggy fitted with a 2.2 t1 engine thats was turbo efi. the overboost cut was brutle and split a barrel. took a while to sort that one out as the boost ignition retard was also all over the place.
the main problem with the boost cut was down to the poor cb header design with the waste gats off one header runner and the big turbo making so much boost the waste gate could not control the boost limit, even with the waste gate open the turbo could still produce more boost than the ecu was set to cut.
with your new settings i would think your'll run out of road before the cuts come in ::D:

Finally got hold of some Magnecor KW85 bare cables so I could make my own (longer 90 degree turns into shroud) cable ends onto them (see pic).
Just installed them into the car and I am finally totally happy about my spark plug cables after all these years... :)
Coming monday Time Attack! Wish me luck...

Well, all went well, dry track, did not crash, no mechanical failures and surprised a few fellow racers with the cars' acceleration on the straight bits :D
I think I improved my time on that track, but need definate time table yet.

Made only a few pics myself, but maybe a few will follow later from others.
Did finally thought about bringing the camera in the car :)

Sounds like you had a blast and great vid also - it's always awesome hearing that monster roar! So where are the "good pics" of the Heidis?:lmao:
Oh well I guess I'll have to settle with pics from under your car's apron instead :lmao:

Bogara_ZO June 15th 2011 12:10

Hi Walter,

Nice pictures as always!

So after a day like that what do you say, KONI or Bilstein is your vote? And maybe I've missed something but are you happy with your coil over front setup?

Cheers
