Did another skid. Limiter needs some tweaking but it all seems to be working now.

I should probably stop aiming at walls at some point.

ahh yes saw that hit in the video, was wondering how bad it was, luckily minimal by the looks!
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!!

That was the second one! Actually tapped the wall a couple of times that night. It was a mixture of being a potato, not driving for way too long, and having a slow as hell steering ratio on a tight track! haha

I was going to fix the other side today but I got lazy after work, so it'll have to be tomorrow.

Well 'tomorrow' dragged out and the rust went further than I had anticipated so I ended up patching more than I had expected, but here we are.

Nice and shiney.

Almost seems a bit of a shame to get thrown around a circuit now :(

Boosting late, and down on boost, but still had some good fun.

Thanks guys!
I love how it sounds, but I'd love it a whole lot more if the turbo was doing anything before 5k haha
Gonna put new springs in the wastegate, run around 12psi, and get it on the dyno. I'm very interested to see what I come up with!

Why not go with a proper turbo. Will pickup spool and power

S256 borgwarner can be had for under $1000 deliver great spool on a 2.6 whilst flowing up to 500hp
