Where are you gettin your floor panels from?
I took my car to Karl Norris on friday. Runs like a dream mate
There were a couple of problems:
There was no air filter
One of the injector clips was missing
Needs new HT Leads.
Karl took me down to Halfords in his 205 (that cars well impressive) to get my new air filter. He had some injector clips so thats all sorted.
Also its got a hybrid turbo with a 50 trim compressor which is in really good condition. Quote from Karl: 'I'm really pleased with that, thats one of the fastest RS Turbo's I've had for a long time given the mods'
It is really torquey for a CVH lump. Karl recons its pushin close to 200lbft of torque, thats at 15psi. Only trouble is, theirs a little bit of clutch slip sometimes when on full boost and the clutch is pritty much brand new
some I will have to get an uprated one when it goes. I'll probably fit a S2 fly wheel while I'm at it.
Make sure you get some pics up soon when Mick makes a start on the welding. See you soon mate, MIKE
Glad to hear its finaly going well for you with a Series 1
. Now hurry up and sort out some pics of this new beast, i'm looking forward to seeing it
What clutch is it running?? Thats something I have to replace as on mine before it comes back on the road. I slips all the way down 3rd in the dry if you give it beans and in 5th no matter how gently you load it up it slips at about 12psi
