    There's loads of good restaurants in Warrington town centre. It's about 3 miles from TD. Also there's Golden Square if you want to go shopping. It's a good sized town with plenty of stuff in the town centre. 
    @MartinT The Trafford Centre is 20 odd miles away, so not particularly close.

    This did not go down well with my other half, but someone, somewhere might have better luck!

    NA tune makes a big difference. If I was going supercharger, I think the Cosworth setup would be the one. I do like the HKS in terms of how it drives but there has been a few issues with them.

    gavin_t reacted to Lauren in Litchfield/Rotrex supercharger   
    You are probably looking at a sample of one or maybe two. Litchfield aren't big into the GT86 and whilst like other companies they have offered a supercharger kit, they didn't sell many at all it seems. That doesn't mean that the kit is necessarily bad, but won't you find data on reliability etcetera with so few having been fitted. There are many more kits out there that are far more popular. 
  9. Thanks
    gavin_t reacted to Kodename47 in Litchfield/Rotrex supercharger   
    Not many people fitted the Litchfield kit. The best comparison is the base Jackson Racing or Kraftwerks kits from the US as they use the same blower and similar setup.

    If you use Google you can install the following add on which automatically fixes old broken Photobucket photo links. I've tried it on my phone and it's working for me so may be useful for anyone wanting to access pictures on some of the older threads 👍

    Noise tested at Bedford today - 74.5db @ 4.5k revs.
    (Just NA tuning package with manifold, no cat back)
    Plenty of headroom for Thruxton🖒

    When I first had the car I won a map in the first national meet from Abbey Motorsport. More recently, when I had the manifold changed, it was mapped by Td as they're far more local for me.

    I should be able to share "pre" and "post" TD NA tune experience after I do a track day at Bedford in Feb (will be rather subjective and based on limited track experience though).

    Thanks Lauren, sounds like what I am after. Good to know it is future proof too. Main thing keeping me away from going straight to FI is it is then a slippery slope of other supporting mods once you start increasing heat etc especially when using it on track.
     
    Just navigated to the Tuning developments section on here and found the big thread also  Answered a lot of my questions regarding DB readings etc as well. Present to myself in the new year I feel. Was temped by Abbeys ACE setup but this seems a lot more cost effective.
