Default Exocet fun with gt2871

Had the car back on the dyno for some more serious attention, now that the engine had a few hours on it.
We got to 260kw at the hubs but the clutch was letting go so we've backed it off for now. I'll do the clutch and try again after I've had some fun as is.
Bare in mind this is in an Exocet so hopefully the diff and box will last a wee while

That's about 320bhp/306ftlb in your local measurement.

700kg, so about 1540lb or there abouts.
I haven't driven on this tune...its pudding down here this evening. Should be a barrell load of giggles and squeals

What ecu are you running? This thing must be a real handful to drive

Link G4+ ecu. They're built here in NZ and have great support/dealer coverage locally.

yeah it sure is something to drive...all hiss, roar and thunder coming from the turbo and exhaust separated from you by about 1.3mm of aluminium sheet. We're just coming out of a wet winter so can't wait for some fine weather track days
