Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Huh, thats about what you get with the stock R upgrade isnt it? You have a completely build engine, how does it not have more power? No replacement for displacement: It's a misunderstanding to assume that a fully forged engine automatically is more performant than a stock engine. After all, if the ...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

If I'm to be honest, I was hoping for some more power as its just shy of 320 horses at the wheels. JRSC has nothing more to give but its more than enough power for now. Meth is currently turned off as it's not giving me any performance gains and needs more investigating. All said, Brands Hatch test ...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

As far as Slicks tyres are concerned, I have tried 3 brands and two tyre size combinations: I tried a combination of 15 front 17 rear and the standard 15 front and 16 rear. I've tried Pirelli, dunlop and Avon slick tyres. I have found the following combo to give the best performance as far as slicks...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Automatic throttle blipper on down shifting gears. I know there will be the purist out there that think its sacrilege not to use heal and toe but for those of us who are too old and can no longer bend in certain ways, get yourselves the Auto-blip device from https://www.auto-blip.com/ it works reall...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Christmas has come early. A set of Ohlins TTX 36 are on there way as we speak. They'll be going on next week in time for Silverstone on the 27th this month. Should be fun. Alternatively, if the Ohlins don't work out, I will defo give the Eibach springs a try, so I really do appreciate that informat...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

When my Atom was completely rebuilt by the factory from the frame up as a 3.5R I upgraded from the 10 way Bilsteins and for me it was like night into day - not only are the Ohlins superb but they are also blessedly quiet as, unlike the Bilsteins, there is absolutely no irritating spring clatter. Th...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

All, any advice wrt to suspension. Money being no object, the obvious response will be to spend £5400 and buy the Ohlins TTX36. Are they really worth the money. What is people's experience of the TTX vs Bilstein 10 way dampers. I defo need stiffer suspension now that I have Aero doing its job. Ariel...

Forgot to mention, also added the Dynamics 1050x Injectors for better fuel flow and consistency:

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Nice shot of Aero: image.png Looks nice and high, will catch some spill from the snorkel, but far more effective up there than the normal mounting position. What does the front wing look like? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I have some pics of the Aero front and back further up the page. I had ...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Had a shake down test this evening. Took the Atom out for a run at Brands Hatch Indy circuit, it smashed everything in its path albeit not much competition out there. I would have got a sub 50 second lap in had it not been for traffic which is a significant improvement of previous lap times. So the ...

Re: Project - Track Focused Atom 3

Very sorry to hear you have to sell the car. I thoroughly enjoyed following up on the updates. Hope you get well. Thanks Paul. I've decided that I'm going to kick my illness in b0ll0cks and hopefully get back out on track. Decided not to sell unless I absolutely have to. The car will be going to Si...
