Not been able to reveal too much untill we had all the bits squared away. Good to go now so........
My car currently has:
A full S/S miltek
Catcam 402's
Matched inlets
Custom ITG filter set up
RS tuning remap.
Now, for some unknown reason my car will be fine when freshly mapped (at 203BHP) then prgressiely lean the fueling out resulting in a big (last time was 18BHP) loss in power. Seems the Sagem ECU on the 197 just doesnt like being told what to do!!
After various attempts to fix this map, I have failed.
Fortunately my good friend Matt - AKA Icarus, happens to be a time served race engineer and software developer - writer, handy!! Also handy is the fact that he is setting up his own busines Tour-De-Force Power Engineering LTD.
Part of this is the all singing all dancing new ECU both him and RS Tuning have developed.
Hence my car is the 1st customer car to be fitted with the new EC1 ECU, coupled with the removal of the Drive By Wire throttle set up which is being converted to a cable throttle system. In addittion to this we are fitting a WTCC S2000 throttle body set up and having the VVT fully calibrated for proper adjustment.
This is scheduled for WC 12 October and full results will be provided.
Watch this space.....
***edit, 1st customer ROAD car, there are sever race teams running this very sucessfully and have been for a while***
