Years later I still dont get all the fuss over Mika. Never rated him...he needed the team to hand him wins and the team principal to completely mess with the head of his team mate ... then with the car under him was able to do the job. He is a Button at best

Because Finn

Everybody who wins the WDC had the car under them

He recognised his opportunity and got the job done, thats what is impressive

Isnt that right webber, fisichella, massa, rubens, coulthard, irvine etc

Coulthard, even with his retirement and rookie errors here and there was the pace setter. What Coulthard showed me was that the mental space of a F1 driver needs to be a pretty strong place. Coulthard wasnt and Old Ron having man love for Mika screwed with Coulthard in a very negative way.

Same can be said for Schumacher, Alonso, Lewis, and now Seb

Mika is alright, he's no top 5 driver or anything, but fcuk me, he's a boat load better than button

That fcuking hack. He makes me sick. If anything Button and Massa are the same person

Not sure thats true. I dont think Webber's performances have suffered due to Seb having a surrogate dad as team principal. The Alonso Massa thing has clearly messed with Massa's head space who alongside Schuey really grew into his own for a few seasons against TGF and Kimi. Alonso and the culture of the place does seem to have damaged Massa who other then the rare weekends like of late has been totally out classed by Alonso.

Lewis, well its less Lewis and the same offending team principal that was around when Montoya and Alonso walked rather than play the game.

Anyway...fark Mika. He robbed my boy DC of a WGP, ditto Vettel on Mark. My life woudl be very different I am sure of DC and MW were WDCs :)

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
