By the end of the session my worry had turned to delight as my near standard mr2 (apart from breathing mods) came out of the dyno with approximately 285bhp and 300ft/lb of torque. ![]() When it came to the day of the session I was a little apprehensive as I had built the engine myself and never had it on the dyno before. I decided to put my name down for the full mapping session and had a look into FC Tuning and the feedback Steve had received and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. I hadn't heard of Steve before speaking to Duncan,the owner of Hypertech,but he could not recommend him enough. Ian C, ScotlandI brought my Toyota Mr2 to Hypertech in Scotland for Steve's 12th mapping session in this part of the country. We then started upping the boost and found out that the actuator. 1.5 hours later (after a boost pipe popping off twice the fuelling map, and ignition map were set up. Drove it onto DynoTech rollers and started the tune. Steve plugged into the omex sat morning (6th march) and instantly got the car to idle properly. (Had to do away with electric FBW throttle for cable one, OE map sensor went, and standard coil was replaced for wasted spark setup (EDIS setup) with magnecor leads. Once again.attempted this and I got it all running (and I still don't know how to use a multimeter properly!! haha) I trailered the car to Hayes Engineering as although it would start and idle, the Cosworth 3 bar bap sensor and other components I had to change were not working together. Turned out the fuelling was terrible!!!!!! Anyway.I asked steve what I would need and after attempting to run haltech interceptor decided with Omex 600. I have a good friendship with Bobby B (uncle Bob) and had the car booked in at Hayes Engineering (Erith) before I had even had my map just to make sure everything was safe. ![]() I took it to a well known company and the figures seemed really good. I then mated this up with a GT28RS turbo and with custom intake pipes and exhaust the car was ready to be tuned. I added an s14 tubular "ram" exhaust manifold, cutting and welding to a vauxhall head flange. The head went a while ago running 2bar on stock 1 piece vaux turbo so with no previous mechanical or electrical knowledge I started to strip and rebuild my engine. With the introduction of the Vitz in August 1999, the production of the Starlet came to an end after a span of nearly a quarter century.Stuart, KentMy astra has just been mapped by steve.and if im not mistaken it was his first vauxhall. In 1997, the Carat model was added to the existing two models, featuring the retrospective styling then in fashion. GOA, Global Outstanding Assessment, was adopted to this Starlet for the first time.The transmission was either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic. Available engines included a 1,331 cc "high-mecha" twin-cam 85 PS unit for both models, a 1,331 cc turbocharged 135 PS unit for the top-end Glanza V sport grade, and a 55 PS diesel for the Reflet model. ![]() Toyota's passive safety measures were introduced even into this class of vehicles, and the Starlet came standard-equipped with an SRS airbag on the driver's seat and the anti-lock braking system (ABS). The drivetrain configuration was either front-engine, front-wheel-drive or 4-wheel-drive. Available in a 3- or 5-door hatchback body, the new Starlet came in two models, the basic Reflet and the sporty Glanza. The fifth-generation Starlet that was released in January 1996 inherited the predecessor's "lightning fast" agility and good economy.
