Im still abusing myself, bugger wrong forum i mean the car abusing the car,🤭🤭
The Rotrex charger made way for a Procharger D1SC just before the first covid lockdown, and its quite a difference,
Had a few issues on the dyno (just before 2nd lock down) as struggled to get 14psi of boost, which was strange as thats what the Rotrex was making, (car sounded awesome though at 7.5k on the rollers), But after coming home from the dyno we found a boost leak which has now been sorted, But due to covid lockdowns and restrictions etc the car has not been back for another run/mapping session yet for the extra boost fueling etc so cars limited to 14psi at present, but we made a healthy 463bhp with the boost leak though, not bad for a RV8.
