Hello everyone, used to have a g40 a couple of years ago but sold it, anyway a friend of mine was selling his so I've got the bug again ;)
I've just bought a g has just had the engine rebuilt / bored with Wossner pistons (one of the injectors failed)... It's only done a few hundred miles since being back together, all below 3k rpm... It runs but I need advice on what to do to get it all set up correctly...
The engine has a big valve head, piper cams, gas flowed inlet / exhaust manifold, charger is R1 and was mapped to 177bhp @ Jabba when the work was done... My question is:
Once the engine has been run in, do I need to get it remapped because the pistons are larger or will the existing map suffice? I presume I will need to get the timing and sensors set correctly?
Also, he removed the induction kit at some point because it got too noisy... I seem to remember Steve @ Pitstop telling me that the standard airbox is only good to 160bhp... does my memory serve me well or am I talking bollocks?
Looking forward to getting involved in the forums again, I used to knock about on the other one before this came along...
Thanks in advance!
Dan
