just some little update

[Ti-Mike]

just a picture of a little tour we made.

Exhaust is in but not fitted yet and the HP- limiter is out.
560 HP.

[MikeB]

Which exhaust have you gone for? And some explanation re. the HP limiter would be handy!

[Ti-Mike]

it is very very simple....the throttle butterfly flaps are the only reason why the R8 V10 has let Power then the LP560
The Flaps start closing down to ca 80% above 6700rpm.....so it is only a way of air restiction......plug in a laptop.....change the flaps position and done........

The Exhaust is the.......1:1 copy of the LMS V10 GT3.....as we had acess to the original pipes.
The only different , not more CAT and NO Silencer at all, and it is a 5 in one setup multiplied by 2 makes 10 cylinders, it will be very loud , at only problem why it is not on the car yet, i have been on the road like hell.

Ti-Mike,

Yes! This is very good news! I have my V10 on order and I will come to you for advice, is that ok?

[Ti-Mike]

you are more then welcome

[SteveR]

Ti-Mike, can you post specifics on the engine mod in the general forum at some point? A DIY would be very helpful. How did you confirm a power increase?

[Ti-Mike]

my ASS-O-METER can tell you the increase........

[SteveR]

Good. Now that I know you use precision equipment to verify your gains I look forward to your DIY.

[willyjp]

can you run on the road in (CH) without the cat?
no periodic emissions testing?
you are fortunate if so

PS: is see by your plate you are in the Ticino, is the enforcement by Canton, or is it national?

[harrison]

There are probably big fines in many U.S. cities for removing the Cat. Are the power gains big? If so buy or rent a place in the boonies to avoid any testing...BUT you may still get busted while traveling a broad. Where is Bodhii the guy who despises "Seat of the pants" type dynos !!!!!!!!!!!!!
