Hi all, good weekend?
I'm off to oddkidd on friday for a set up and was wondering what i should be expecting (hopefully not bad news like last time at powers)
i got the engine second hand from someone braking an rst but was on different inlet to me.
spec is...
2.0 zetec bottom end with JE low comp forged pistons, lightened and balanced crank with bronze bushes, ARP rod bolts and a focus rs head gasket with ARP head bolts. A fiesta rs turbo head (previously reaconned by Burton) with new valve guides, piper cam and vernier pulley. alloy radiator,big front mount intercooler,360’ thrust bearing T3 turbo,Collins -31 acctuator ,5th injector ERL MF2 controler unit,cone filter ,silicone hoses,turbo back full stainless exhaust.

your thoughts

 

Well i would expect a solid 200bhp without issues from a decent engine and components. It all comes down to the metering unit and fueling.

In your case a clutch too.

 

How is it for the set up? Hopefully good now

 

Lol yeah im kicking myself so much for not putting a new one in when I done the box.still I got a four paddle now. Give me something to do over xmas wont it

 

is it all done now then ? what did it make ? im gonna guess 210 hp.

 

Unfortunately the clutch shit itself so we got nowhere. We'll try again when I fixed it

 

Common sense should have seen you changing the clutch mate if you had the slightest doubt... Hope you get it sorted and some good power mate .

 

yeah i know matt, so annoyed with myself for thinking ahh fuck it its be alright and cut corners to try and save some cash. it never pays off , i don't normally do things like that. must have been in one of them moods when the box went back in.
o well we live and learn

 

Shame about the clutch.
