T4 spark plugs

[T4Rick]

pmsl i had a jumbo hot dog with cheese and some rubber off the race track on it lol.

sooooo you'd turned it up to "11" then (hehehe)
hope its nothing more than a silly air leak/soft hose caused the thing to lean off that much.
250 ,then step to 300 sounds a lot safer than 300 straight off the mark.
good luck with the mapping (it apparently causes lots n lots of heated arguments )

it has to be said
these S40's and the T4s in particular DO shock and supprise people, for something that looks "standard run of the mill car shape" there really quite a sleeper of a motor.

when you get it all sorted and are next down at the pod, shout first, mate of mine is there most times with steve debben, may pop over n wind the lot of you up

I surprised my self in how it performed andy lol.It went really well and i wasnt flooring the car as in nailing it because i didnt need to the car ran fine.I do think i had a dodgy plug though.I do want to start putting times down so i will have to have it mapped and bigger injectors to suit.im thinking 610cc so i should be running around 50dc so i will be on the safe side anyway.As for traction problems ive not havent really had any as i roll from the lights then go seems to work well lol

When i was having my blast the other night i was really suprised. But my motor is a bit jeckyll and hide.. Sometimes it runs sweet, Lots of Power, Full boost, no flat spots, very rapid. Other times i get a flat spot at about 5krpm, it over-fuels to the point of stalling sometimes if i pull off a little quick from a junction and occasionally refuses to boost above 10psi. Been through all the usual suspects, all i can blame it on is this ****ty non Genuine MAF i still have (haven't had the funds to replace it yet.. Business is pretty bad ). I did notice when runnin spot on she was very slithery and torque steery (at one point i lost traction under throttle in 1st, 2nd and 3rd) but i blame that on crap tyres lol
