had my car up at A1 today for a full setup and it runs better than ever now. i fitted greens and a chip brought from steve and a 3 bar from matt lewis and left it with steve to set it all up. the car now runs like an absolute dream and i am very happy with it even though my clutch is now slipping a bit but to be fair it wasnt great to begin with.........job for the weekend

 

stg3 best spec for a road going cossie

 

Nah, I think Light Blues or Blacks are. As responsive as Greens but with that little bit extra

 

Best set up that Iv loved the way the engine sound on idle best road set up that well a good set up cossie not many cars can keep up with it lol.

 

geezer i work with has got a 300bhp evo...gonna have a go now

 

Is that your boss?

 

Good luck mate !!!

 

Yeah but thats because your gay

 

Pointless post that wasn't it bellend

 

no your lover.....

 

cheers mate but i dont think i will need it now...his car aint the best and i think 300bhp is optimistic

 

Not really, your the one who likes bellends in your mouth not me
COCKINHIM

 

It's weekend

As for injectors, i've tried 803's, 403's, 55's & now 83's (untested) but the 55's are by far the only ones i would use for that stage of tune.

Did A1 build your motor?

 

Anybody else getting an "Inbetweeners" hint to this thread

 

I have heard COCKIN likes a cock "inbetween" his cheeks

 

hes certainly built some impressive cars steve scott, hes always helped me out when in need.

 

no mate just done the set up for him

 

no but he recommended the best way to go with my car. by wot your saying he has done it all wrong i will have to let him know

 

everytime i need something he is always very helpfull and he knows these cars inside out

 

Its not that its wrong but old hat - mine ran different on 55's

I know Steve has taken the piss in the past with members on here

 

these cars are old hat

 

But tunning them has come on leaps and bounds with new school ways lol thats how power out puts have gone up so much in the last few years

 

we all know steve is a piss taker and an arse hole but he still builds the best engines
he just gone off the radar as such

 

his wrc escort has been built the old skool way and i would put my money on that over pretty much anything else around

 

Apart from a car that's built the new way - compare it what's leaving the MAD garage

Like fuck he does, he can maybe build engines but going off the stories i've been told his engines are not the best by far

 

[QUOTE=BRAMMER;5684545]Apart from a car that's built the new way - compare it what's leaving the MAD garage

i think he will be out and about a bit more with this one and i think u will have to eat a bit of humble pie mate

u shouldnt listen to storys coz after a few people have passed them on they end up just that...................storys. if you havnt had first hand experiance with someone then you shouldnt really openly slag people off.

I've had one of his engines and it was shit, the head had been dropped prior to being fitted and was just slapped on, the fully ported Ł1000 head was past its last skim, probably something they desperately wanted rid of and it ended up on there, brand new ( well few k old ) 200 block cracked in several places, bolt holes full of shit.

Trust me mate, not ALL of Steves engines have been good ones, I have no doubt that he has built some storming engines though, I know people with some but if he can mug you off, I feel he will.

I have used someone not far from him with good results, only problem being the time that anything takes to get done ! all that aside though he does build some good engines and wouldn't mug you off with parts past their sell by date !

 

i would never be able to build an engine but surely there's only one way it goes together! Or do u mean "old hat" as in the parts have been made out of diff materiel etc??

 

Old hat as in old bits as new school is things like wet linnered blocks modern injecters and ecu,s that can be mapped better gt/other modern types of turbo or even the latest style twin scroll with modern better flowing manifolds and external waste gates all things that are relatively new on cosworths! think back 5 or 6 years people were not getting over 600 bhp but now there are m.a.d cars with 600 - 800bhp with huge low down torque and power!

 

yer true although twin scroll is still really new on cossies cossies! Isnt it only mark who's using one? Good things lie ahead for big power cossies!

U just said Steve was?

 

Anytime pal 300bhp lol iv left a 380bhp one in the past just dragged away from it.: blabla:

 

he says its 360 but i think he is on drugs. his gearbox has fuked up now

 

Odd pistons, dodgy long stud fitting, shit head and on & on.... just generally a bad piss take build using old parts - not just a story, fact - pretty much the same as described by JonnyBravo but a completely different engine so it's not just a one off.

i would have glyn build me an engine over steve any day

but he is so hard to get as he is soooooooo busy

you know to well what steve is like as you worked there lol

take gooses mk1 escort for example

Was that a mk1 shell that Glynn ended up finishing by any chance ?

I saw one that had come from steve and the work was beyond rough, hard to believe he does his own focos shells after seeing that tbh
