Ian have a read of this...I'm still concerned about your choice of blower on a 2.0...321S is optimised for 2.5's so will not spool as quickly on your car. tell me to mind me own business if i'm interfering...only I know someone who got stuck with the 321S when he wanted to upgrade as its quite an old turbo. so this could save you a bit of hassle later :)

Did another mod to the car the other day although i didn't intend to lol, managed to rip off one of my mudflaps when parking at work so time for a change, one off all off so the car is now mudflapless :D

That saves us all having to rip one mudflap off in sympathy. Thanks Ian. :five:

Fitted a couple of switches today, can you guess what they will be used for (not at the moment though)

anti lag and high to low boost settings ?

Ejector seat and hun detector switches :whistle:

SUBARMAN 06-08-2009 08:10 AM

Re: Project "Stealthy" 400 or 500bhp (or something in between)
 
I thought "ejector seats". Now I will have to think of something else!!!

The one on the left may be for emptying the thrusting duct. Not good positioning though - liklihood of pressing the wrong one when driving.

Oh! Just had a word with the Squadron boffins. They are for the heated seats!!!!!

Red for heating up, and green for cooling down. Smart!

Squadron-Leader 06-08-2009 01:50 PM

Re: Project "Stealthy" 400 or 500bhp (or something in between)
 
Climate Cup Holder controls like on the Audi Q5/Q7 ?

Red button to heat your beverage to a max of 59oc and a green button to cool your beverage to 3oc. Only £100 optional extra on the Q5/Q7. Deffo having one of those.... if I can find the other £28000 to buy a Q5.

Failing that are they for..

1) NOS?
2) Diff?
3) Water injection?
4) Some other injection mounted on the front mount?
5) Flamer?
6) Cloak?
7) Revolving number plate?
8) Oil slick
9) Missiles?
10) Change the colour of my wheels while in motion to green or red?

1 of the guesses is correct ;)

Re: Project "Stealthy" 400 or 500bhp (or something in between)
 
Gotta be number 10 then!!!

How do you wire the switches up to the wheels?

lol, I'd hate to disappoint you Ian :norty: there are a few newages with Solaris...Jag has it in his WR1 :shock:

Keith, Zak has brought a Solaris and installed it in Mrs Mocom's wagon, he's super impressed so far but won't know more until I return from leave. Not suprised you are fluent

They have had looms made up, the plug and play solaris is still a little while off and anyway there is nothing wrong with Simtek's

i guess Jag's must be a cusom jobbie then..nowt wrong with Simtek's, lots of people using them with great results. i just like the active knock control, data logging and multiple map options...i understand you can also use it to control DCCD in conjunction with LC :drive:

Granby 28-08-2009 02:03 AM

Well had the MD321S fitted yesterday and a Simtek with anti lag & launch control fitted and mapped by JGM today, had a little problem with a sensor but a couple of phone calls later (cheers Eureka) and that was sorted

Managed to get 432bhp & 380ft lbs at 1.5 bar, they did try 1.7 bar but something was holding the car back which wouldn't let it release any more power, after talking to Simon & Charlie it seems the the exhaust (still a 2.5" system) could be the problem so it looks like i'm after a full 3" system now :D

Haven't really had a chance to test it yet but the car does seem a lot smoother, did boot it a couple of times and if i'm honest it didn't seem that much faster but i was in quite heavy traffic so will give it another try when nothing is around ;)

worzel 28-08-2009 08:09 AM

Good job Ian!

Granby 31-08-2009 02:40 PM

Thought i'd post up a pic of my engine bay after having all the work done

The APS intercooler kit comes with red pipes which i thought didn't look right in my engine bay so i decided to spray them black for a more stealthy look, unfortunately i run out of spray paint so couldn't do the APS induction pipe

Certainly stealthy, but not Mulberry!
