great to meet you guys at woodbridge

[widdy]

just wanted to say thanks to Drizz and all the boys who gave me imfo about my Astra at raf woodbridge on saturday, it was a great help and now getting fired up to get the car faster!! so any imfo on how to make a red top go ballistic without turbocharging would be a great help,need to catch the nova redtop with throttle bodies!! also any other track day dates would be handy, again thanks for the help and look forward to meet more of you!

[Drizz]

No worries chap glad we could help. Theres the eastern project thread so keep us updated with youre progress on there!

Alright Widdy.
I think you should leave your Astra as it is, that way I can have a bit more of a relaxing drive lmao . Seriously I think your car goes really well and handles fantastic. If you was to get throttle bodies and after market management your looking at close to £2000, then on top of that you ve got fitting and mapping, it makes it alot of money for 20 ish bhp. Dont think Im being negative to tuning but I've had to spend thousands to get my engine to where it is now and there was not that much difference between our cars.

Also itll be very reliable as it is now!

thanks for the comments, will have to sort a new exhaust systym, hoping to do a trackday on wed at snetterton so would like to get an exhaust and manifold, so any ideas!! also got my nitrogen regulator and now the jacks work!! and just sent my oz rims to be refurbished, still having nightmares about that Nova!! bloody quick, drove my nuts off to try to keep up with it, lucky that wally in the beemer acted as a pace car!!

Looks like like I'll have to have to try and get to a track day to see this car, looks awesome mate.

[Drizz]

I cant wait to see the air jacks work!

Hello Widdy, nice to see you signed up here... i did notice one thing on your car that didnt make much sense to me, you have stand alone management that doesnt use the airflow meter, but the airflow meter is still fitted...

Bin it as its just causing a restriction.

Loved the car though and it looked superb out on the track too, when my corsa is done we will have to meet up at snett for some track action.

I was gutted that the gte didnt get chance to fight it out on the track with yoiu, there is always next time. lol

[widdy]

Hi thanks, will remove the airflow meter,is there anything i need to put in place of it, will try it at Snetterton on wendesday, looking for a new exhaust systym and manifold, the engine is blueprinted, still loads to learn about the car, never really been into front wheel drive, mainly driven rear wheel drive elises, exsiges, leading edges etc, was told that the red top was a good engine and was impressed the first time at snetterton, the car really turns in well and can get the power down well, the chassis is very strong and and can make up loads of time around the twisty bits, A big thanks to Drizz who gave me loads of imfo on the car looking forwards to learn about getting the set up right, looking forward to next time at Woodbridge and hopefully meet more members!!
