Well I went to this and scrapped up enough to run the car and I discovered I need to learn how to drive lol!!!!
I have way to much wheel spin of the line and in 2nd but as soon as I pull 3rd there was nothing I wasn't catchin with extrem ease. Everything could lauch better than me even a 1.6 Corsa i was beside got away a fair bit off the line before I gathered it up.
Running 248bhp with no diff and no experiance lol! Best time was 14.46 and top speed of 105. 0-60ft 2.610

I have a Quiffe diff laying here on the floor beside me lol.
My brother told me on one of my launches the comentator said everyone should hold their breath cause of the smoke lol!
I was starting to get to grips with second gear and actually letting off the throttle by half and was running mid 14's then but still alot of room for improvment. My early runs where all mid 15's.
But my trap speed at 105 is huge considering the Imprezas and Evos and the majority of cars in the 13.3 group were running about 98-99mph, so the car definatly has potential.
Plus like a numpty I completly misjuded filling up the car and was running with it near 3/4 full lol!
Big panic now to get the diff in for next weekend I think Bishops court is on.

Was running 248 at the fly @1.1 bar on the TD04 but I think less could have been more. Was starting to learn to feather the throttle in 2nd but my reactions in doing this still need practice, could only balance the grip at about 6.5k revs.
If I drive in 2nd at no speed and go full throttle and let the boost come on I can get full grip if its dry so it is possible to work it for max grip on a launch when changing to secong instead of this limiter crap I get lol!
Diff would fairly help with it. I'm trying to get someone to fit it for me cause wanna run on Sunday again. But then my clutch may not like it, I have a Exeedy padle clutch here but that might make matters worse!
Was looking at our leader board and I should be seeing into the 13's with some practice.

Chris on here mapped it and I used AI Motorsport for rollers, I had it on the rollers at 0.8 bar and made 225hp at a rolling road day and one of the other guys said there was only a 1hp difference from their rollers and another he had his car on so I'm confident it's fairly close.
212 at the wheel(s) atm
seanep82gt wot power are u putting out?
Dunno if I'll race without the diff, theres a muppet from my town running his Integra with a supposidly proven 277bhp setup and he's being going around mouthing off about my car and how he's going to embaress me, I don't even know the guy like!

im off on saturday if you want a hand to get the gearbox out?
i saw ya on sunday as well man, deffo havin same problems as me with the launch lol. your 60 ft can come down, i was gettin 2.4's when i was gettin a clean start, but even that could improve. I was also gettin 113mph terminals with a 13.7 so if i got a diff too then the low 13's is a cert lol. I saw on your final run you feathered the power a lot and seemed to get away so much better, and as you said, its all about practice lol.
Maybe we should start our own championship, rules are you have to have over 200 hp nad no diff lol.

Was that the run where I went up the strip on my own? They never timed it I don't think and it felt alot cleaner of a launch than my other ones, got 2nd to bite just a bit better.
200hp and no diff, I mean wot were we thinking!!! lol!
jimmer wot power are u putting out? You'll definatly see low 13's, that trap speed is crazy!

yea, i've removed a few boxes, its not really difficult, just gota take your time and look at whats going on!lol.
In terms of fitting the diff though, i would have to get the old man to supervise, i've never ripped open a car box, but have opened a few motorbike boxes and he assures me there quite similar.
