ZEN PERFORMANCE win again in Time Attack

Continuing our coverage of this years Time Attack series ....
Round 3
of Time Attack took place at Knockhill, Scotland on July 27th and was again won by Team ZEN.

The ZEN Impreza utilises an AET modified Garrett GT40R turbocharger on a ZEN custom manifold along with Twin 38mm Turbosmart Wastegates with ZEN custom pipework.
As UK AIM dealers AET supplied an AIM Sports MXL Pista digital dash, gauge and data acquisition unit allowing valuable feedback for continued engine development.


Driver Phil Glew was well ahead of the opposition with a fastest dry time of the day of 53.450s, to win the trophy for the fastest time of the day and shattering last year's lap record at Knockhill by 1.74s.


In the wet Super Battle final Phil asked to go out on the dry tyres. We watched in amazement as his times plummeted with every lap:

Lap 1 = 1:05.251
Lap 2 = 59.571s
Lap 3 = 58.333s
Lap 4 = 57.827s
Lap 5 = 57.704s for the win, beating Olly Clarke to first spot by 1.063s.

The Time Attack final takes place at Brands Hatch on September 2nd


As always Team ZEN would like to thank AET for their continuous support.

Happy AET customers were in fine form.....

Tony was driving his Elise Type R and had recently benefitted from a mapping session on our Dyno.

Andy Speck - FWD Class
In the FWD Class Andy Speck in his Tigra 2.0 Turbo reached the shootout final and only a boost hose blowing off prevented Andy taking the win.
Andy spent a lot of time with Andy Nicholls on our Dyno in the week preceding the event, and the results were phenomenal, improving the car by 120bhp.
Andy runs a Turbosmart FPR800, a Turbosmart E-boost 2 electoronic Boost Controller, an ITG Maxogen Air Filter and a High Pressure Fuel Pump, all supplied by AET.
Andy also came third in the Top Speed discipline reaching over 160mph in a mile standing start
