Had a pretty eventful morning...
was at AVA for a bitmore testing of the breather and a check up..
the car made 410 ATW with over 50 degree charge temps, its soooo hot today...
would love to see what it would make on a colder day..
the car also caught fire after the run
i had disturbed the heat sheild while fitting the breather, needless to say i was panicing bigtime
Big thanks to colin and alan for staying calm and getting it out without it causing much damage.
A melted throttle cable wwas all that had to be sorted.
Anyway the verdict on the breather is................chuck your bailey ones in the bin

its the way it comes out of the corners that it gets me...
it has a t38 so less lag.
its a 4x4 and had cut slicks on so he was carrying alot more speed than me out the bends...
also has a closer ratio box.
its a quick wee thing!

after my fire on saturday it thought i better sort a proper heat sheild...
Tom at AVA sorted me out with a brand new escos one for nowt
he even modified it to fit my car!
i fitted it tonight.
![](https://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/euanbegbie/GGR018.jpg)
bolted it to the air box.
![](https://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/euanbegbie/GGR014.jpg)
also while testing on the rollers we noticed that the airbox was being sucked in by the turbo... a bit of a bottle neck then
cut a bit out the front to try and free the restriction up

cant beleive that fiesta passed you, i just about choked when you told me! its must be fkin mental if its passing you
you were right when you said the heat shield doesnt look as good but if its safer then what the hell
Chop- the fiesta is some ex mag feature car from down south, proper piece of kit as far as i know, someone in falkirk has bought it.
my bro will sort you out with more info
lets hope the down pipe gives u more power euan!
