Pictures please.just ordered a march grille and bought some 3 spoke wheels earlier, pics when they arrive
my reference was to the inlet set-up, the actual engine is smaller than the Saab engine.
I see that JRE are now squeezing 315 hp out of them, big money required.

Ohh get what u mean yeh the inlet is bigger defo, I think a Saab turbo 2.0 would fit but how much power I heard 500 easy from theses blocks

Collected 16 more rally tyres in a very good deal.
Now got x8 pukka Dunlop Rally slicks
Also got three events planned now, a scatter next week (in the road car), Brands Hatch stages and then a road rally in Feb
Was that the bunch for sale on eBay? Looked cheap!
As for how many you have... 30 tyres and wheels?
As long as you choose Trionic 5 engine, then yes. The T7 is basically rubbish without serious modification to internals.
Hi!
Thanks for reply man, I'll keeping looking and stick to the "cheap" tint film meanwhile
WDIDT?
Well actually nothing! Last week ordered some carb cleaner and yesterday arrived a contact cleaner! Went back online noticed that I had clicked on the wrong product!
Can I use the contact cleaner on spark connection? What about cleaning the MAF sensor?
Any ideas? Please advise?

Cleaning throttle body must be with electric cleaner they have them in halfords 4 pounds, maf can be cleaned without breaking the wire, spark plugs can be cleaned but it's better to get new ones

Thanks Azzydot,
What is this product for? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00...=SL75&keywords=contact+cleaner+electrical
I was wondering about Spark lead confections not the plug.
Since the facelift versions(or 2nd facelift) do not have distributor and has individual connection I thought cleaning them will do some good.
Regards
Yeh I wouldn't order to wait and means u will pay more money when u can walk in halfords and pick it up, also u can clean up any coil leads with that

Wdidt. Bought some gear off @Skinner_87. Excited, and looking forward to getting it all sorted.
I had never realised quite how easily these little things go sideways

Just spent the whole day racing in the greasy English weather... The cars pretty much RWD!

I have not actually made her do it before, I have to admit I did get the back out a couple more times on the way home
But when I was just casually ragging her round a round-a-bout and the rear suddenly slides round, I'm just glad I corrected it for the turn off the person behind me stayed well back after that tho

About 130 at the fkywheel
THAT is friggen awesome. Thanks for finding that!!
Every time the power figure gets higher.
"I swear mate the fish was THIS big!!!"
Your fish probably doesn't make any power.
Supposedly **** wad mofo... Don't be jel be Reem
Tis the figure my mapper had always said, 125-135 is the usual output for a car of my specification. At the wheels it'll be around 105

the throttlebody is gonna be the biggest hp restriction, a VE of about 90% will be the stock t/b limit
The mapper also sells a bored out throttle body with a remote mounted MAF meter which is meant to give good gains

Hmm interested.. got any more details?
That's quick I would want to know what 230 bhp sounds like

Shooting down my hopes
Tbh I was expecting more like mid 90's at the wheel, so when he said 130 at the flywheel I was a touch bemused... Guess I'll stick it on the dyno sometime

a run up the 1/4 mile would involve less human errorShooting down my hopes

Tis' a good point, at the rally I was pulling away from Lupo GTI's and C2 VTS's so a low 16 would be nice and *hopefully* achievable

i did a 15.49 with 109hp n/a and 720kg alex, and a 15.41 with about 130hp +t and a slightly heavier car, stani did a 14.3 iirc with about 170hp
I can't believe you said that. Isn't it the exact opposite, combined with introducing a load more variables.
Or perhaps you know that the only figure Huggy is interested in his 1/4 mile time.
Agree with both, dyno figures change from one dyno to another... 1/4 mile depends on driver consistency, but take an average of 5 or so runs and it should be fairly accurate

because a 1/4 mile time cant really be fabricated, power to weight + reaction time
far more accurate than "estimated" transmission losses ranging anything from 10 to 40 %
