Good work! you finaly got it running,i would use a cometic inlet gaskit

sidewaysdave · 11-04-2010, 09:11 PM

bet it feels good to have it running and driving!

CozzyKing · 11-04-2010, 09:12 PM

Nice work mate.
Glad you have got her running it sounds amazing, good luck with the M.O.T. although it should sail through no worries.

fostersice · 11-04-2010, 09:23 PM

Need green injectors anyone got some???

graham c · 11-04-2010, 09:33 PM

no you wont greys and a t34

fostersice · 11-04-2010, 09:36 PM

Lol
i only have a L1 ecu with 300bhp chip,3 bar map sensor so need green injectors

fostersice · 09-05-2010, 06:27 PM

ok so i had to add some bits to finish her off in the engine bay

so thanks to eclipse racing i now have a new turbosmart dual boost controller

i also ordered my new race fuel rail to go with my nice new turbosmart
1200 race fuel pressure regulator

so the fueling and boost is sorted

a long with the L1 ecu with ahmed bayjoo 330bhp chip and dark green inj
3bar map sensor
i was rocking but had to fine a air filter that would give me over 400bhp and that would fit in the space i have
so got the pipercross race foam filter.

also fitted the new front screen sticker and prop spacer

also tidy all the wiring up and fitted to boost switch

the car is not running to good at the mo but its booked into redline tomorrow for a dyno run and set up

lewis spooner · 19-08-2010, 11:37 PM

great i had the exact same idiea ultimate green on a mk2 with a yb cosworth engine prop still gonna do it. car looks great you better look after it

turbo m · 20-08-2010, 03:12 PM

i saw it on pistonheads yesterday

carlo · 28-08-2010, 09:55 AM

Seen this at ford fair as much as i admire the work thats went into it , its fucking hideous looking no wonder its not sold had potential at the start with all the right stuff to be good but was made so cheesy its not true

RETRO_AL_ · 28-08-2010, 11:07 AM

If i had the money i would take the spoiler and the wheels off and spotlights,maybe get rid of all them gauges sell it all that on
Then buy a proper rubbber spoiler some image wheels like comp cx and i bet it would sell a lot easier
Hes prob sick of us going on about it lol, it like when people need to sell there houses sometimes you have to change your style so more people get interested and it works!

Are you the 'Car Doctor'?

I'd have to agree though

rubinsbin · 30-08-2010, 05:00 PM

Do you think you will have any bounce/ re bound problems without the anti roll bar being replaced with compression struts?
i was considering using them on my escos-thanks

Excellent work mate!
