i know paul its that what has took up all the time.thats why i diddent do it myself lol.would have been a heap of spagetti lol.hope your good matey

[paulsupervts84]

i now have a ibiza cupra its 240bhp at the min but new turbo, manifold and pistons and rods etc and i\'am hoping for 350-400bhp

[crisp]

shit the bed bro.when u recon it will be done? we will have to hook up once both our cars are up and running would be good to have a nosey and a good chat

[crisp]

well ive just had the pleasure in finding out my car has been mapped hear are the pics,video and rr graph to show my progress. AT LAST

ill be running it at 9 psi which is around 200hp / 196 lb-ft  at the wheels but the engine is capable of 270bhp but wont think about running that till i go BE.

nice one :-D

Get some use out of it

Si

[paulsupervts84]

well done mate now it time to have fun in it

[crisp]

this week ive been fitting my dash back in



then cut the cage around the glovebox



and fitted cage and guages etc



and fitted my water temp sendor

[Ponk]

I gave up on the glovebox and blanked it instead.

[axsaxoman]

you might consider swopping cam box covers for old style ,or fittng a heat shield to ex manifold --the turbo has been known to soften them and cause distortion + oil leaks

[crisp]

can see where your coming from john,ill watch out for that and consider changing them when i get problems.i know they get very hot cuz the bit of tape i put on the one has shrivled up lol.

[axsaxoman]

even the works c2,s when n/a and using a bunch of bannanas change front cover for the alloy type ,so if they can melt them with n/a how much hotter do you think the turbo manifold is going to get??
 waiting to see what happens is what they used to call \"tombstone technology \" in the aircraft industry \"
.IF the wing breaks cos of stress -we.ll-fit a stronger one - pilots are cheaper than new wings--.


in your case the possible scenario is --cover distorts --oil leaks +runs on red hot manifold --instant and terminal engine fire??.

maybe me being \"belt + braces\" --but thats what old age+ experience teachs you -

[crisp]

i can see what you are saying john.its not like i thrash it for hours on end and dont check my temps and under the bonnet,i do.

ill have to look into sorting my alloy covers off my old engine.the cover will need baffeling wont it john?if i want to run a breather on it.

[axsaxoman]

looka tthem closely you need to alter things with jp4 ,you could just run the front one??,that would solve the problem and link it to the back one as jp4 is done

[crisp]

well took the car out last night and destroyed 4th gear,tried to drive it home,got about 10 miles and the box just gave up and locked into neutral,ganna take the car off the road now for winter and source a BE box.

[axsaxoman]

how did you break it/
wheelspinning then suddenly getting grip?

[crisp]

no john went through 3rd into 4th for about 3 seconds then BOOM,this was at 16psi.drained oil today to find gear teeth

i knew it was ganna happen it was just when lol

[axsaxoman]

16psi should not be a problem to an ma box --maybe been abused in its past life

[crisp]

hmmmm,well i am making around 260hp and 260lb-ft at the wheels around that boost it is a lot of torque when i know a lad who stripped all 3rd gear in moddified n/a form track car.

the box has never been on another boosted car

cheers for your interest on my blog john,oh and i am changing my cam covers dude

[crisp]

well ive removed and stripped my gearbox today to be quite shocked if im honest,4th has chunks missing but the cog that rins with it (top left) has been stripped of all its teeth

omg lol



and while i was in the mood i drilled and tapped my inlet so i can run my spa inlet temprature guage.
