Beau Yates - Toyota 86 Monster Build

[Myles]

Onboard footage in Beau's car of the crash, you can see from Beau's perspective, it just looks like normal smoke from the people before drifting up the hill, very heavy impact, sad to watch

[Seventy]

That was so heavy to watch

[Myles]

I know, he looked so gutted after the car came to a hault

[Matt]

He just said wow... That was a huge hit at full noise. Nothing he could have done.

[lolwat]

yes, but they said lock exhaust and just run vvti on intake, its not the right way to do it, so they where given a deadline to make a solution they came up with basically a "splitter box" to make 2 outputs 4, by then a motec was getting wired in

[Matt]

NO Drive by wire either...

[Jimmee1990]

Getting rid of drive by wire has a purpose, as you will struggle to achieve to same throttle reaction electronically. Getting rid of the VVT is just plain stupid however.

[Matt]

^^ Agree.. Unless the cams are stupidly large and can't run with it, but even then in my experience you lose power across the board + allot of torque.

[SprinterTRD]

Not at all, While some OEM systems feel slow MoTeC DBW is not. There are many advantages to having DBW especially with sequential shift. Traction control, automatic throttle blipping on gearchange ect.

[R&D Mechanical]

Fly by wire can be a very usefull when tuned right!

mu question is why not keep the standard ecu and use the ecutek crack? They are amazingly tunable. He could still run both injections and keep vvt!
