Viper Pardon my ignorance here but in the article mentions that you are running the car with VTEC off . If what I suppose is right it is running one of two lobes either the high rev high lift one or the low rev low lift one ?

@revvedup
please go though the last few pages of this thread, you will get the VTEC story.

Nice write there on BS motoring. Congrats. We at tbhp have been getting first hand info and pics of work in progress though.

Hi Guys,

Finally after 3 months of waiting the Vtec wiring issues were sorted out on the 1st of May. Car still needs to be tuned with Vtec which is scheduled for Monday. Will post the new dyno charts once done.

kill that steering wheel, somehow it looks out of place.

The car looks stunning in the BS motoring article. A wolf in sheeps clothing.
The interiors are simple and elegant. But the steering wheel does not suit the interiors.

9000 revs... Awesome!!

Great achivement Jignesh. Congrats

Hi Guys,

Thanks a lot for all the comments.

@ Patiencewills & Jaggu - The steering wheel was already replaced after the shoot will post the new pics soon. Also the front seats have now been upholstered to match the rest of the seats.

The daily rev limit is going to be set at 9000 RPM though I very rarely hit that spot. Am waiting for Karthik to find time to enable using 2 maps on the ECU. Once done it will be just the flick of a switch required to let all the horses scream all the way to 10000 RPM.

Some more goodies are being lined up in this month. Keep watching to see what goes in next.
