Each year for those that have tracked the progress of Tickford and FPV, the guys do a fun project with no support(dough) from me. They do whatever they want, in their own time with bits and bobs that they are able to scrounge from suppliers or the scrap bin.

They do it to amuse themselves and produce something different for our visitors to enjoy.

DRIF6 is such a project.

It is not in FPV's cycle plan.

It is not for sale.

If it were to be raced (or drifted) we have no idea how long it would live.

It is not street legal.

I am not aware of warrantees given by any provider of non street legal race (read Drift) car parts.

Seems to me that there is always someone who feels the need to p*** on someone elses chips.

Hey! Ho! some things never change.

Happy Jack = David Flint, CEO of FPV

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      Hi Tao. My dump was ground out to provide clearance over the used swing arc. But when the clip fell off, the flap was free to travel too far. Got stuck. That's all. There's decent preload too. You may remember that I asked for a low pressure actuator because I wasn't able to tune the car immediately, and a proper actuator probably would have left the car undriveable. Or at least barely safely driveable. But it hasn't been an obvious problem in terms of the gate blowing open under normal use. Well, maybe it has. The turbo is quite laggy compared to stock - so an actuator upgrade will be done first after the supporting mods are done and it's dyno'd to stop it pinging. Hopefully the gate has actually been lifting early. If it has, it has been necessary for me anyway, because as I said earlier in this thread, I had to back off the ramp allowed by the boost controller, to stop it pinging. I might have been in a bit of trouble if it hadn't been as slow to build boost as I have found it. In fact - given that I will get it onto the dyno soonish - I think I'll order an actuator from you pretty soon, so we've got it there if it is clear that there's no point continuing to try tuning with the low pressure one.

      I've always wondered why my brothers BMW is louder in Eco mode. Do they have e-gates from factory?
