cheers guys :cool!:

ok another update,


i have finally sorted out my boost surge issue after a few hours today on a friends rolling road with tom & tommy from FMS changing this and that... so im now very happy as there is no surge and its making a nice reliable 273bhp :cool!: dont know why it made so much more power last time as its still running nearly 2bar now but im just happy the surge is sorted


i also had the new rear beam fitted and set up with height adjustable spring platforms and the focus stub axle conversion from RUTLAND PERFORMNCE VEHICLES

heres a few pics of the disc set up










he came across a few problems he didnt expect like the handbrake mechanism fould the shock body but that was resolved by rotating the caliper round the disc so i now sits at 12 'o' clock

stops ok although the pedal is alot softernow it seems? maybe as there more fluid to be moved to operate the piston rather than the old drum cylinder.... im not sure....i bled the rears again just to be sure but the pedal will not get any harder.


and i managed to pick this little toy up, just to keep an extra eye on things as its a bit more accurate than the secs monior and also has the function of blanket fuel & ign adjustment, which is usefull when running a bit of bp102 at a thrash or something to squeeze out a few more bhp to grab that extra 10th of a second.
it also has 7 channel data logging facilities which could be handy. and fault detecting screen.


looking forward to fiesta in the park to show the car off again with its new layout etc, and i might have my new hose set up and dry break fittings all in the car by then but im not 100% as im a bit skint now :blub:

heres a taster of what they look like tho

jiffy tite dry break fittings for tank/pump/filter/fuel rail etc






and all aeroquip in the car will be changed for these pro gold fittings and pro gold nomex braided hose



much lighter/no vapour leakage as tfe lined/better bend radius/easier to assemble but fcuking expensive :blub:



think thats all for now folks....

:cool!:
