Why not get the vibration in the diff area sorted while it's there, then you can drive it home. Seems a pain to trailer it or put it on a flatbed.

Not trying to piss on your parade here but why the hell take 6 years building it and at god knows what cost when all its done is make power a fairly standard YB wouldve?

Yeah that mirrors when I asked them what they were when I was fitting the timing belt for him and timing it up etc on the vernier.
When he didnt know what the gaps were when asked, thats when I suggested someone who knew what they were doing got involved in redoing the work on the pistons for him in the first place
Good job cause the engine would be seized now otherwise

starting with nothing, how much would it cost to buy/build a YB to 400bhp. bearing in mind that cossie heads have mostly been skimmed to death etc.
it sure its cost a lot less to do the zetec, and how many 400odd bhp zetecs do you know of?
every man and his dog has a 400bpg cossie.
and thats another thing, its NOT a cosworth, so why bother with boat anchors lol.
and finally, i found the logbook earlier, i actually bought the car in 2005, so ive only been doing it 5 years, not the 6 i thought i had

i guess the moral to that, is dont belive what you are told

yes mate, xs power T04E
Ł280 for a NEW turbo, so even if it lasts 5k miles its almost a consumable part lol
so say they dont like big boost either, but luke said mine is running 18psi, so not wringing its neck
edit to add:
its also on an xs power external wastegate and std cossie amal valve

yeah twin scroll but he ran it on a normal manifold which i though defeated the object.... but it worked well tbh better than we thought though it was a bit laggy if anything, didnt last very long maybe 1000-1500 miles

I dont know whos got it wrong as i wasnt there today but when i spoke to luke earlier he said it was 1.8 bar(26-27psi)..he also said theres more in ther tho but because of a few little issues he didnt want to go any further..appx440-450 hp he reckons at around 2 bar..

Quick picture of mine, iv moved the airfilter now though to behind the head light.
No idea what power its making, but Will Pedley has said there is more to come just from adding ignition. Its on a very safe map at the mo due to my current loom being a bit on the ropey side.
