12-07-11, 21:19 GMT+10#22 yer, crank trigger set up, a few suspension changes and more fine tuning really.
I think the real reward is that it did 3x8 sec passes not just one it did them one after the other.

13-07-11, 16:25 GMT+10#25 Sorry, typed it on my phone
I remember u saying ages ago that the previous tuner said to not put any timing in it, just more boost
So I'm assuming there's now more timing in it lol

Maybe you should bring your car out for a skid and show us all how to do it with no timing and no boost. 23lb is low to make 700hp.

Reread what I said
I actually agreed with Rick when he told me about it
Thought it was pretty silly for a tuner to say not to put timing in it n just add boost
Im sure Sean has done what should be done and put timing in it
I didn't make 700@23, was 660
Went over 700@27
N I will b taking it to the track when I'm confident in the setup

13-07-11, 19:56 GMT+10#29 Funnily enough, The setup is very similar to how it ran the 9.0
Yes it still has very little timing in it. The last 2 deg netted us over 20rwkw.
We literally spent 45min on the dyno to get it to Willowbank (As we where all ready running late) so all we did was make just enough power to do what is needed.
There is still a fair bit more left in the setup but the consistency at the moment as a race car its pretty good. The only thing I think we will be doing to it is make the tune oober safe before Jambo.
Unless Ben really wants to run faster.
