My belt was very tight just after fitting with the adjuster fully slackened off. Trons prob done most miles on his so see if his belt has needed tightening up?

I tightened mine after a couple of hundred miles because it had stretched, although wasn't slipping. It's definitely not a belt issue. See what HKS say tomorrow hopefully, I'm not going to drive it until I get advice from them.

Ryan, don't want to sound pessimistic but I've just listened to vid I took when my rotrex tts died and it is similar. I'll try and post it now

I'm not very optimistic anyway tbh, it's definitely coming from the s/c and sounds exactly like a failing gearbox...so things aren't looking good.

Just hope the warranty is decent and I can get a replacement asap, I don't have another car and I use this to commute. Luckily I can get a lift in for the rest of this week.

First vid was maybe 20 to 30 miles after I heard what sounded like a bearing noise starting. Still held boost well at the time.

Moved on to this noise

Back from mapping, made 381bhp, drives really nice. Very pleased. Tts made 403 on same dyno with full dms mani and 76 exhaust where as now I'm standard mani, decat and uk mod std exhaust.
It's basically a mirror power plot till 7k when the gap goes to 15/20bhp as it gets to the top end. I have a print comparison I will post when I get chance.

Glad you like it!

Ryan's charger is back with HKS at the moment for a warranty claim. HKS have been very good with everything so far. We should know more in a few weeks as its on the way to HKS Japan.

BTW If anyone is tempted we have two more kits in stock ready to go

Some consistent numbers coming up on these then from 370 - 380, despite variations in other hardware.

Great numbers, how does it compare to the TTS on the road?
