About half the spots have been filled, so if you have been thinking about it don't procrastinate too much longer. Get your name down on the list soon. Payments to be made by August so a month to get it in.

Hey Meg, I cant seem to get the link to work, everytime I try, I get an error saying:

"Cant perform this operation, default mailing client is not properly instaled".

Im going to just get my turbo fixed, which I'm just waiting on the exhaust housing from CAPA, Garret is having mailing issues. And should be all sweet, but cant seem to do whats needed to book my spot.

Is it possible to visit Crescent Motorsport and somehow make the payment/booking there? they are literally a 10min drive from me

Ok what that error means is you haven't told your browser what email program to use/open when clicking on email links or it's been in some way corrupted, no biggie.
PM me your full name and what type of car you'll be bringing and I'll add you to the list. Then I'll let Crescent's know that you'll be calling in sometime soon to pay.
All is good, so don't stress

Thanks for that, I managed to rectify that issue, and you were right, I didnt have a mail client/program associated with opening email links. All sorted, Windows Live Mail fixied it.

See you all there and happy horse power hunting

There's about 15 or so with our names down that are going. Should be a good day and a good feed from what I hear.

hey there dude yesterday was a good run on the dyno it gives me a starting point for the future lol

cant remember if you were there when joe ran it on the dyno but after two runs the results were

torque 628nm
233kws
boost is about 7.5 to 8 psi
pretty much standard at this point maybe in the future a tune and a mod here and there
i will put up the graph shortly once i figure out how to put it in lol

Nah ... I had to head off ... last i remember he had issues with his exhaust probes not reading. I dropped in later on ... and he said they just started working again.

Good starting off point ... always good to have a baseline run before mods .... and then go from there each and every subsequent mod you do.

Just a reminder the dyno day is a little over a week away. There are a couple of spots vacant so if you've been thinking of doing it then email events@fpvclub.com to get your name down.
Those that have their names down and haven't paid please arrange your payment as per the information sent to you. Thanks.

Aftermarket Headers would have REALLY made a difference ... if you can stretch it, one of the tried and tested intake CAIs will really open it up. I do agree the pod filter on top would just draw so much heat in.

Still made decent power though ... I think you actually got 220-ish rwkw on your runs
