Nick's LY F1 R27/R26 so much in a year of ownership

So.. Finally ran it at work on the rollers, and here's the result! Standard R26 ECU file with Milltek R26 decat downpipe and cat back, 197 Milltek cat back with small volume rear silencers, Airtec 70mm meg cooler, Airtec oversize boost pipes and TIP

pretty chuffed with that, wanted it to remain nice and smooth in comparison with the NA so no massive spikes in boost, so for this reason I'll probably not remap it, currently got the innovate plumbed into the decat to check fuelling but all seems good

New R26 injectors just for peace of mind and not bad at £140

And finally put a mild map on, much better than before and not pushing it to its max :smile:

Cheers :smile: I did have 1144 front pads before and grooved brembo discs, they were fine for the N/A engine but I've killed them now
 
Yeah @TB Rich new designed caliper spacer (not round washers) and longer bolts to suit, apparently the original set up was specced by the reseller
 
ffs! So first thing I did when I got my kit was question the round spacers and the lack of HT bolts. Suffice to say a reseller was quick to say no issues don't worry.

Tbh the old round spacers - not too much of an issue because of the way the hub faces are... but lack of bolts did annoy me when all the other kits (well PF and Godspeed) did provide them.

I'll be ringing Reyland to get the updated bits though, cheers dude.
 
Little visit to [MENTION=3735]Luke_197[/MENTION] this evening for some different wheels :smile:

also converted my B14's to run 80n/mm race springs and the solid top mounts, much better body control now! Can't wait to try them on track
 
Realised I have no pics of the 2 1/4" race spring conversion, solid mounts fitted.. So whilst at work doing the alignment (inc shimming the rear) I grabbed some pics :smile:

Alignment before:

and after, much better, less rear toe, can easily get more front camber but quite a drive to donington so stuck with 2 degrees

Rear 80n/mm X 170mm spring

and front setup, don't be alarmed by the fluid on the dampers, it's forklift grease, keeps the threads lovely
