right guys id appreciate it lots if you could help me out with a few engine tuning questions

i want around 170 bhp now iv been looking around and seen that ktr do an in car boost controller which should get it to 150-160bhp is this a good first step also im thinking of getting a group A carb on there along with a ktr downpipe

[bluntyr5gtt]

right iv had a good talk with mark at gt motorsport and he has advised me fit an uprated radiator to help with the temps and a uprated fuel pressure regulator along with the group a carb to sort the fuelling, he advised doing any of this before whacking the boost up as he tells me it would only end in expensive tears

Hi mate
Was wondering if you had spotted this thread posted by one of the members??

It will point you in the right direction.
As for the Grp A carb....  I wouldnt bother as a rejetted std carb works far better. The link below will take you to the topic regarding the carb jetting.

The fuel pressure regulator should be fine..  Its the fuel pump you may want to uprate.

Hope that helps  :wink:

thanks mate appreciate the help

think my plans are as follows

gt tuning radiator
uprated fuel pump and regulator
ktr downpipe
group a carb or rejetted carb
fit t25 turbo and have the boost set to around 16psi

Looks the same as my exhaust. Just needs lifting up a touch that's all. Probably loose rubbers.

looks like the 4" drain pipe, doesnt suit in my eyes

[bluntyr5gtt]

taking the car to gt motorsport this coming week to have it tuned up as its not running as well as it should and also needs a bit of the wiring sorting on the dash as the heaters work when they want and also the boost gauge and speedo are a bit iffy

iv also ordered a samco induction hose as it doesnt have one at the mo and an baileys dv24 dump valve to replace the forge one i have

[bluntyr5gtt]

got my car booked in at gt motorsport this friday for the following

fix oil leak
fix boost leak
set boost to 14 psi
set up carb
wideband lamba check to get the fuelling spot on
get the gtt  ram raid induction kit fitted
also took the spare t25 up there with me he said its in great condition and seems to be a hybrid

[baby blue r5 gtt]

very good, whats the damage on that lot? need mine setting up once its back on the road

[bluntyr5gtt]

£100-110 all in hes awesome up there wouldnt trust anyone else with my car
