Funny - these look like the coils that come standard on Merkurs! U take Paypal?

 

they'l fit on rs turbo's too cant they??

 

Yes.......

Mike, That one looks damaged!

 

XR,
No sorry I don't!

US,
Yes they do.

Daz,
No it's not, just that the way it was set in the resin from the factory (on the piss! ).

 

Furry muff! Just thought I would mention it thats all!

 

BTT

 

mike, im running l6 ecu, what else would need changing to run one of these?
thanks

 

Nothing, they will work no mater what ecu you have, they are a direct replacement for the original as far as i know.
HTH

 

I have one on mine and apart from looking hard as fook they are the nuts

 

I should have one on the way!!!!!

 

so are there any differences in doing it this way or going dizzyless?
(sorry but dont know much about this )

 

Lot more work involved for dizzyless!! also an extra board in the ecu by all accounts or I think Gareth t has a whole other ecu afaik!!! Also cam needs to be modified as well as the cam cover. Not at all gospel, just what I've read about the place!!

 

Hi Mike

Can you get hold of the Magneti Marelli individual plug coils. (similar to Focus WRC)

Want to fit them to my Zetec engine?

Have seen them in the catalogue.

 

Not tried - give me a part number (mail me direct for a quicker response).

 

Mike there are three diffent varieties from Marelli

The part numbers from the Magneti Marelli Catalogue are:

BAE720
BAE700AK
Plug Top

I would like a price for 4 of each please for comparison.

I will measure up tonight to find out which ones will fit.

Cheers

From my measurements the ones I need are the

BAE720

Price for a set of 4 please?

 

same price etc for RST's ?????
how do you wire them up on a RST,are they labelled etc ?

 

Matt,
Yes, you just cut the bullet connectors off and re-wire spade connectors on. The coils caome marked up for + / -, so very easy.

 

mike, will order one off you next week

btw Austin, just noticed you sig (700bhp/ton) your car is undoubtedly quick as fook but I think that figure is a little optimistic if your car weighs 500kg i'll eat my hat! the dax rush hyabusa weighs 540kg and thats with a bike engine!

 

The car has previously run 360bhp on the dyno but with my recent mods will see approx 420bhp with my new throttle body injection setup, 1000cc fuel injectors and GT ball bearing turbo.

I have tried to make the car as light as possible and everything on my car is either carbon or alloy so at the maximum it will be 600kg.

E.g. My 13" wheels are lightweight billet and weigh just over 3kg each, they cost me over £300 each though. I can imagine a regular 17" wheel being nearer to 15kg each.

I also have a Lightweight chassis option and bodywork which also keep weight down (approx 20kg lighter). Doesn't sound alot but savings here and there soon add up. Other weight savings include:

7" Quaiffe diff (10 - 15kg saving over 7.5 " cossy diff), Alloy bell housing (5kg), Quaiffe alloy gearbox casing for sequential box (5kg) etc. etc.


Westfields are lighter than Dax rushes, Westfield quote in the 400's kg for their bike engined lightweight kits

Some of the run of the mill Westfield racecars with windscreens are sub 600kg's

420bhp / 600kg at a push = 0.7 bhp/tonne

x 1000 = 700bhp per tonne

simple

For weight calcs see: http://www.fluke-motorsport.co.uk/weight/complete.html

 

ok sorry but didnt reilise you had increased the power thought you were still 350 bhp!

350/600kg = .58 or 580bhp/ton see i can do power to weight ratio's too

anyway wasnt havin a dig just thought it seemed a bit high for the 350bhp rating.
will have to meet you on a race track one day and find out just how fast she is

just looked at that link, they say a westfield cossy should be 590kg for a n/a just goes to show that adding the turbo, cooler and interior all adds up as mine is 710kg with a full tank of fuel

 

Austen,
We want pictures of your wheels (well I do ).

 

nice 1 mike and thanks i will order 1 v soon

gearbox first
bernie!
