Default My Series 2

well its nearly finished now but thought i'd put it up any way

started out last august when i bought it with just a scorpion exhaust and a crusty k & n. full efi transplant.




had enough of the clear rear lights after a few months, so got hold of the smoked rear lenses

when i was fittin em, i decided the bay was dirty, so take the engine out over winter, clean the bay and refit the engine.








then as usual, i started seein bits that i wanted and the car then realised it was destined for the garage for a while

to cut a long story short, this is the new spec and so far looks like this

TECH:
FRST OFAC management
FRST lightened and balanced bottom end (1.6)
FRST 'Vulcan engineering' maxi flow stage 3 head
Oversized valves
3 way cut valve seats
Kent CVH35 camshaft

Beige 701 injectors
Hybrid stage 2 T3 turbo
Mongoose straight through exhaust system
3 bar map sensor

Rear disc conversion
2WD Cossie front brakes (callipers and discs)
In car adjustable boost
Revotec boost gauge
16" escort cossie standard wheels
Koni adjustable suspension all round
Bosch performance leads

Samco boost hoses

Samco ancillarie hoses


BODYWORK:

88 spec cut out front bumper (for performance reasons)
BB bonnet

90 spec rear spoiler

There's more on there but i'll remember when i look
