Seats look excellent, cars coming along rightly good job

[beeko85]

sounds good, any performance gains from this or just noise?

 

[Paddy H]

Going to the RR day at RS tunning tomorrow...

Im hoping for 290 / 420 or there abouts.

would like rid of the CAT to see the 300 mark

 

[Paddy H]

Yet another minor update.

Finaly got the CAT out of her today.

Its not an easy job doing it on your back with minimal clearance. Not to mention having to pull the RHS axel.

Also fitted the ARP con rod bolts. As the OEM seem to be a week point

Just need to find someone with an RR this side of the water to see how its affected things. The 630 cc injectors were maxing at 91%, going by a data log.

I would of thought Ill need to get onto Henk / Paul with the live data for the map to be tweeked.

Fingers crossed should see here pass the 300 mark.

sweet car and love the video thumbs up ftw!!!

 

[Paddy H]

Some carbon etching was done, this is how it ended up...

Quite pleased how it turned out.

 

[r6kyl]

Go ahead Paddy lol.
Have to say its a major step up from the old classic megane you had and as already said, your really not hanging about too much

 

[Paddy H]

No point in hanging around. That doesn't gain HP.

I have a few other thing sitting about, for the next dry day. Walbro fuel pump, cerametallic clutch, 330mm 2 piece brakes.

If only I had a garage...

 

[beeko85]

gear knob looks great

 

[Paddy H]

Was a good day out...

 

[Nigelo]

Hey, looks like you've taken the megane a long way - anything for after you hit the power you're looking for?

 

[Paddy H]

'Wrecked' ECU.... Well not quite, but burnt track.

This was a reuslt of trying to fit a Walbro and depending on the stock relay. If I had of read up, I would have seen this wan't a good idea. However spent the day fixing the PCB.

A couple of other bits in photo...

Could do with a dust....

 

[Paddy H]

........

 

[Paddy H]

Another minor update...

 

[Paddy H]

Thought she was well in need of a clean...

Turned out not so bad.

 

[106lad]

Lovely piece of French Metal.

Makes me miss the tweeking days i had with my 306.

It was constant trial and error. but a fun car

 

[Lappintyre]

Thats how every black car should look! Great work

 

[Paddy H]

As she is now back to 'standard'.

Could this be the final clean?

 

[Paddy H]

Anyone fancy a meggy????

One that has been cared for, better than a child?

 

[Brennan]

crackin little cars these, best of luck with it lad

 

[Paddy H]

Off to a new home, through a chum.

Anyone know / seen where she is??

Ards / Comber area I believe.

 

[Lappintyre]

Did Ferrett not buy this?
