Porks bike carbs and boost project

[Belly93]

cheers looks awsome

 

[pork]

Thanks!!

 

[pork]

Finally got my flange for turbo exhaust made, reall happy with it too, £30 from bloke over the road

And rest of bends delivered so can start exhaust

 

[h701micra]

Yay its coming together now
That flange looks awesome I want one

 

[SirChris]

Looking good bro

 

[pork]

Thanks !

 

[SirChris]

Come sort mine out afterwards eh?

 

[pork]

Haha, this is a big enough mission as it is

 

[h701micra]

Soo once this exhaust is on what's left to do?

 

[pork]

Ignition, rad hoses and another fuel pump

Before, I used the ma10 mech fuel pump to feed the swirl pot then into electric pump, This engine has no mechanical pump so need another electric pump to feed swirl pot

Thinking of getting a facet pump...... Can I mount this in engine bay......or does it need to be by the tank?

Cool your getting there pork
Ah I see I'm getting rid of my mech pump conpletely. Using 2 facet pumps.
You can mount them wherever. Just need the anti vibration mounts or longer bolts and sit it on rubber grommets.
There's a mk 1 fiesta which has it bolted next the carbs (where your mech pump would've been)

 

[padraicR]

so neil, you reakon its okay to scrap that stupid shape turboback exhaust and make a flange like that instead? because that sure as hell seems easier and i hadnt thought of this ?

 

[pork]

My exhaust is just a round hole mate, what's yours look like ?

 

[pork]

Like this

 

[padraicR]

oh damn i forgot that :/mine has a really awkward shape to it

 

[pork]

I know shape you mean, same as my t2

What I did, was get a plate, using the gasket, mark bolt holes, drill those out, then where the turbine wheel is, cut 2..25 inch (or whatever size exhaust u use) then weld on exhaust

There's some pics a few pages back

 

[h701micra]

oh damn i forgot that :/mine has a really awkward shape to it

Yours will be similar to mine. You can by the housing to make it like that
Neil has a td04? Iirc

 

[padraicR]

Yeah i forgot sorry neil ! And thanks for that !

 

[padraicR]

Yeah i forgot sorry neil ! And thanks for that !

 

[Stani1029]

[pork]

If thats a td04 its totally different to mines

[h701micra]

If thats a td04 its totally different to mines

ohhhhh what the hell turbo goes on a starlet then?

 

[h701micra]

ohhhhh what the hell turbo goes on a starlet then?

CT9 iirc

 

[jamier2007]

That's the kiddy. Bit smaller than the td04. But loads about because everyone upgrades the ct9 to a td04 on the starlets

 

[pork]

Facet pumps are push pumps rather than pull and its recomended they should be mounted within 12" of the tank

It's mentioned on their website

[pork]

I bought the silver top pump, it says it can go anywhere

Is that true?

Not sure about the silver tops but the few solid state ive had have been push

 

[pork]

Misses wrote out a list off things needed to get the car driving again.........after going to the retro car event at pod, she's came round to our way of thinking on cars

So if anyone has any of these parts going cheap, let me know

[h701micra]

Basically neil all profits if any go in little mans saving tin

 

[pork]

Err £15 posted ?

Sounds good to me.

And same again to you Karl if you want

 

[jamier2007]

You put down k11 wishbones, I assume you know that will give you MASSIVE camber?! Haha But I can get a lot if that stuff at work. I can pm you with some prices?!

 

[karlj]

Sounds good to me.

And same again to you Karl if you want

Yeah why not I'll put it in my sons savings but I'll have to double check I have them still

 

[pork]

From what iv read is they'll be 10mm shorter, which I can counter with drilling out the top bolt hole on the hub, or suspension.
A lot easier than messing about with trying to make ball joints fit each other

 

[jamier2007]

I took the difficult option and drilled/grinded and welded my ball joints in and out of my wishbones haha. Let me know how much you have too slot your hubs
