That is a really interesting idea Matt, drop the laminovas and add WI      yes Chill I thought I sent it you as a PM

Not got it nick

That is a really interesting idea Matt, drop the laminovas and add WI 

  You've got the ability to do it, monitor it and map for it now, if you wanted to. If nothing else, it would be interesting to see what effect the laminova's do have at your level of power. Maybe just taking two out of the equation would show some changes, one way or the other.

It's good when you can do back to back tests

I posted on the checking fuel pressure thread about the fuel pressure here are the latest log, ps forget what I said about IAT's after a while they just go up!!  

 

I upgraded to the latest version and put in 4.2 as static FP

 

Your MAP is looking good, 230KPa (1.3 bar boost), so head flows pretty well. (what exhaust spec?)

Told you almost 90*C... But probably your's on some track use will be even higher. Fit a bigger pulley (3.15"/80mm) and water injection to keep your engine safe.

 

(What pulley was Cliffie running on his Harrop??)

I am running a2.9 pulley, couple of bits to sort, will start again Monday Don't know what Mike is running. Really could do with fabrication a large intak manifold with no laminovas but WI

Will you still be able to build up pressure, if you leave out the laminova's?

[The Batman]

Laminovas are very very good You want to fab a new bigger intake with longer and or more laminovas

[rik]

maybe my next project.. but lets wait and see if these header tank brackets are any good before I do any more designing

So rip the cores out and fit a 5 gallon watertank...

There's a german guy taking that route atm.

 

Cutting out the oil filter housing in his brand new B207 that's in the way of the new design:

 

 

Some double length cores:

 

And the new pipes to put them in:

 

Let's see what frankenstein inlet comes out of that design

Was talking to frank about this a while back Still can't believe he used a brand new engine!!!

[Exmantaa]

Yep, he's doing that to a brand new engine core.

 

Manifold is still big on my to do list, but I'm serious lacking the time for it. (Same for a decent SC exhaust...)

[NickB787]

well after my fuse 7 episode thought I would retire here where less people will find me. I have a cc pump issue doesn't seem to be powered just check it directly from a battery and it runs so I will replace the relay and see what happens.

[smiley]

Where did you take power from, and where signal?

 

[NickB787]

the setup is the original CMS one I have looked at the relays( cc pump and secondary fuel pump ) and they are looking a bit worse for ware so have ordered a couple of new ones looks like power is from the starter motor +

[NickB787]

update.. pretty reasonable day today got the cc pump sorted, the trouble was with one of the connectors to the relay was broken, also the new bigger swirl pot is set up, with a larger outlet hole, I did have trouble with loosing a wire to the secondary fuel pump relay I sorted by taking a feed from the cc switch wire, however it's not correct as the secondary pump runs continuously with ign on instead of shutting off after a few seconds. I will need to find another timed switch feed. also had it running :-)

[NickB787]

sorted the switch feed for the secondary fuel pump so it works correctly and cuts off when it's supposed too. I ran a new oil pressure signal cable into the cabin from the sensor, I managed to damage the old plug on the sensor, cost a fortune for a replacement from Elise -shop, started putting stuff back together, wheel arch liners and the like. need a copper washer for the inlet to the 044 also a couple push on connectors for the fuel filter post 044. Checked the wideband feed all seems ok, water injection is ready to go also.

[NickB787]

general I bought a m18x1.5 barb for the fuel pump didn't realise till I ordered it if storm china.. well tried it anyway and it's leaking I have tried difference 'washers and tape still leaking so ordered one from Torques put the new filter inline after the pump aswell
