Ian from Racetec's Engine bay on his crazy white WRC style Escort

Cheers guys

 

YES PLEASE!

 

2 secs, I think I have one

 

Thats been at least 3 sec's now

 

its uploading

 

 

very nice

 

Doh! he must have changed his bay

Was looking for a pic of the WRC cone filter boxes like this one, I thought he had one

 

He used to have one... Dunno when he changed it though

 

anypne got a photo of ians old wastegate setup

 

Think the airbox is now on Steve's Escort Cossie (Kaliber cossie)

 

Do you know how the air is fed to them?

 

Think its the same as your airbox Paul...thur the front headlight.

You can see on Ian(Sibster's) airbox, its flush to the headlight

 

The plot thickens!.................

 

Ian`s car looks the bolloxs here one for now not really engine bay but sure i got a few more on my PC at home

 

hi paul

here you go







MAX

 

Wow thats proper

you got anymore pics of it fitted?

 

WOW

Where can i buy one of theese???

 

As with everything on the WRC car though....they aint cheap.... I thought I had some build pics of the air box but they aint on my laptop....the air box bolts throught the front panel it has a cone filter inside and another carbon adapter for the intake hose to adapt to.....mine came from M-Sport but I think Dewitts do em....or there are some plastic moulded versions about.....

 

Where does it feed air from? or to put it in a better way what I'm trying to get at is I want to keep the standard lights, is there anyway of getting an air feed from the RS500 grill like the original EscCos airbox had? Is that what you meant in the bit I've highlighted?

Cheers guys

Paul,

They are designed to get an air feed from morette style, I suppose you could blank off the original intake and cut out below the box but above the inner arch...then duct into the air box that way, the other carbon adapter refers to the turbo intake hose to air box...from memory the cone filter has a neck of approx 90 - 100 mm the carbon adapter reduces from this to the 70mm intake hose onto the turbo....

Ian

 

Cheers mate I thought that was the case

 

Took a pic over the weekend of the airbox with the lid off Paul, shows the adapter...



Ian

 

Proper car

 

Superb bit of kit mate

 

Proper car.....shite camera & operator....bought a dead expensive camera over the weekend and I still aint no David Bailey.....

Cheers chaps...

 

Whens its 1st outing then Ian???? or you already been out testing.

 

Prob a silly question but to you have two sets of air 2 air injectors?

Mate turn the macro on, on the camera for close ups

 

WRC's ran 2 of everything Paul....Air Inj, map sensors etc. Incase anything failed

 

Ian did have the WRC airbox thing, but was restrictive at the power he runs IIRC.

I got some detailed pics of the EGR ALS setup on the car on my phone, but my phones fucked so cant upload em at mo

 

What power is Ians (racetek)????

 

Twin port wastegate actuator...

The air boxes like this are allegedley restrictive on big 500+ power cars....

 

Paul,

We are testing at Tong on Thursday.....need to finalise diff settings, susepension settings...and learning to drive again settings.....just trying to get my desk clear....then we are doing a shakedown at Melbourne on the 26th....then hopefully Wyedean in Feb....I want to try and do as many BTRDA rounds as I can next year...

Ian

 

Keep me informed ian...like to come see it in action
