Asper the title says :rant:

Well since having my auto changed to a manual the car seems to run better however 0-60 is still around the slow 8 - 9 second marks.

 

I know previously the car had a code 34 problem, i have not checked to see if that is still there yet as i never have the time and im not that great with cars . . . yet that is.

 

would the code 34 retard the car this much??

Also when/if i try to put away quickly the car tends to really hesitate for a second or so, again might this be the code 34 or possibly something else???

I know i need to change the plugs still :headvswal

 

And to top my rant off ive just got back from the pictures at boldon (north east) and went to the asda next door and left my leather gloves there :headvswal

 

What a muppet :rant: :rant: :rant:

no ive vowed not to drive a slower car than mine anymore :x:

 

:rant: :rant: :rant:

It'll not be slow for too much longer i hope :(

Maybe mine will move for your heavy foot :D

 

Oh thats a thing, did you need someone to paypal your money for your renewal?

OK nice one,

just thought i'd offer to be nice for a change :D

I need to sort my dam lights out, niggly little things are deffinately the worst.

Hopefully mujina will be sorting/bypassing my Det sensor problem soon, Cadpaul is doing another ecu check on saturday morning for me to check i need to first.

Then all ill need to do is the shocks, air filter and lights

Also im just waiting for my BOV's coming from Chris

And then it'll be spot on (i hope). . . woohoo

The inlet cams and the turbo's are different on a manual engine to an auto. Maybe that is why yours doesn't drive the way it should.

Yeah but it shouldn't be that much slower.

after all the auto was quicker to 100 (i know it makes no difference but i like to say it) :wack:

This is not the problem, in fact smaller faster spoiling turbo`s give better response but at a loss of maxim power higher up, but the trade off is better for today's kind of driving conditions, long high speed driving is almost unheard of today with speed camera's etc.

 

The problem is the conversion to manual is not complete yet, setting up after the conversion is needed to get the best performance, and these kind of hybrid conversions require intuitive methods.

 

Each and every car ...zed or whatever will have a unique characteristic response to changes in its set up and this often gets overlooked a the best of times but after any kind of conversion work this must be taken in to account, bet you find most of the issues are easy to sort out if this approach is taken.

See, i told you it shouldn't be much worse ha ha ha :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:

Thanks for those words Jeff

 

 

 

Its always good when someone comes and tells me stuff i dont already know, just mean in the future i can pretend i know whats going on :dance:

Pop it back over Lee and we can give it a service for you and solve the problem that was there before the conversion, it is a shame you didn't have the time when you had the car in for the conversion :(

Oh, will you check with martyn to see if he has sent that part off for me yet? i txt him my address but dont know if he's had a chance yet :)

No worries can understand about XMAS ;), just send him a text with your address and he will send it off as soon as :)

OK, no probs, thanks

well I have to say sorry, I must not have my crystal ball working today to diagnose the problems with your car over the internet without seeing it for myself, and the conversion that has been done.

 

Remind me never to offer infomation to you again.

Your original reply was one of many suggestions from fellow members. Im sure "bird" is gratefull for any advice, and there was no rude response or anything derrogatory or offensive in reply to your help...so why the Unnecessary attitude ?

Yeah, what he said,

I am very grateful for any advise at all mate,

why the post with attitude? :shock:

Sorry, it was not directed at you at all, or anyone really. Forgiven?

The inlet cams and the turbo's are different on a manual engine to an auto. Maybe that is why yours doesn't drive the way it should.

 

 

the cam profiles are slightly differant and having a manual conversion,having the auto cams it would be seen as an improvement,but as said if the car aint running 100% which it clearly isent then other things need to be checked

 

boost leaks,damaged hoses,timing and so on

The turbos and cams on the auto are designed to give more torque but less bhp.

 

The turbo and cams on the manual give slightly less torque but more bhp.

This just all confuses me now like :(

 

Whats better to have? more torq or more BHP? :wack:

 

 

BLATZ

Yes your forgiven as far as im concerned, i just dont know what was wrong, hope it wasn't anything i said :)

if you want to have a higher top speed then you will need BHP

if you want quicker acceloration then buy my car, sorry my mistake you need torque

 

but a good combination of both is what you are really after, or my car lol

if i want a dent and another bill ill come and get your car mate :tongue:

only kidding, to be honest i doubt im ever going to be doing 170mph so the better accelaration would be the way forward in my opinion :)

 

Who know once everythin is sorted i may well have a quicker car than yours :tongue: then you'll be :hurl: as fook

 

What mods does your car have anyway mate?

blitz air filrter, scorpion decatt exhaust, lightened and balanced flywheel,rps street clutch, and basically everything running as it should be

 

soon to be added, boost controller and chip, will hopefully knock it up to the 360-380 FWHP

im just looking forward to seeing what mine will be running once all fixed :dance:

Nothing you said bird, something my bird said!!

 

anyway did you get the code 34 sorted yet?

i know.... unhitch the caravan and fill it with petrol instead of diesel. that should get it going better.

seriously though mate, i dont think it having auto tubs/cams will make a vast difference to 60. mayb half a sec or 1 at the most. you should easily get under 7secs if its just rough set up. sounds like its in safety boost or you've got some serious launching issues?

sorry im not being very technical but i have no idea what the prob is so im just trying to be helpful

si.
