No update yet mate.

Its starting to feel a lot less cheap though, ive spent 2 grand on bits for it this week!

Decided to go straight to a T34, cometic with ARP bolts, greens, 330 chip, and then all the service parts like water pump, cambelt, etc

Hoping to have it on the road mid january, although without the T34 and the head gasket yet, its just the paper work im waiting on.

I need to get my mid engined rwd nova back on the road with the new engine as a priority, so the cossie will have to wait till after that is done.

I reckon the standard turbo should be good for over 300bhp with the nice rs500 cooler.



Current plans are laid out like this:


December : Get sierra running with 310bhp or so and do paperwork to get on the road in jan.

Jan: Get rwd nova up and running with 250bhp + 100bhp nitrous.

Feb: Get sierra up to 340bhp + 125bhp nitrous (will yield around 450bhp as nitrous doenst give as good results on a cossie as its jetted to according to Rod)

July: Get mini running with 270bhp + 75bhp nitrous

August: Pull engine out rwd nova and put back in with arrow rods, 270bhp + 150bhp nitrous

Next winter: Put 350bhp + 150bhp nitrous engine in mini
