Having planned some interesting mods for a while we set to to get the car as close to finished as we could for NatDay.Plans were fit new turbo,modify exhaust manifold to take said turbo,fuel system replaced with 044 pump swirl pot and injectors etc,replace inlet from plastic to alloy ,throttle body and idle speed valve,last off fit 710 ecu harness map sensor etc etc etc etc
Anyway after getting so far a few issues arouse etc as they do least of ecu wouldnt be here until tuesday before nat day.
Ok so not a problem few days to fit n sort so inlet turbo etc is fitted only to find head gasket is leaking so off with head to sort just something else to do lol,ok thats done .
So times a bit tight now ecu wired in etc then we contact omex for base start up map only to find everyone in the know is off on hols or sick ( oh dear lol ).
Anyway to be fair a guy there tries to help us and after what was like days sent us a start up map to the best of his ability .
Karl spent time looking over it but its the firmware we were needing for the zetec engine etc.
So now it was an unknow quantity !!!!!!!! had he got the config right for us?????
ERRRRRRR well we loaded it on adjusted a few things etc for injectors cranked it ............................... NOTHING LOL
Ups anyway if it hadnt been for Karls knowledge about mapping etc it would never have started the guy had most of it right but the most important conf stuff wasnt,firmware ups
Anyway this was friday at 6pm lol
To give karl credit he had her running ,took her home mapped to 20 psi idle start and cold starts sorted by sat evening when i met him and gave him a pass to get the car in pits sunday morning for me even delivered it to donnington .
We didnt have time to fit fuel system so boost was limited to 20 psi ,but that will be sorted this week.Have to say ollies fabrication skills are second to none makes fitting something different look so factory and tidy.
Anway cant thank ollie and karl for there dedication to get me there what can i say big THANKS LADS.
Afew pics i took of the install when there new website is finished there will be lots more on there Thanks again NMS
Have to say we did 150 miles on track faultless that says alot to me !!!!!
Have to say she went very very well supprised a few lmao:rlmao:

 

Love Karl and ollies work, and there attention to detail.. didn't get to see you and track Tim but knowing what your old s2 was like, I know this will be a beast when finished great work NMS

 

Nice one Tim

What power you hunting for in the long run?

Good to see a proper tuner on the frs case.

 

Well done to the Norris camp

 

well done lads.

i was shocked on how good the car was Tim, just needed better tyres for the corners though.

 

Good work from the lads as always.

Didn't know you were back on the slippery slope of modifying mate? good to see you back.

What's does the future hold for your frs then Tim?

Nice one tim and brill work from nms,whats that turbo like compared to the likes of the garret gtx range and bw efr range tim?

 

NIce work lads.....as ever........................

 

Stop it Tim...

Karl is already twisting my nipples to get mine done.... he's already kicked the ass out of it in standard trim and deemed it suitable for a gunship - albeit detuned to stop a Jake style mishap with pistons.

 

whats the full spec tim? and how you getting on using the h.o. inlet as there are so many different theorys on there limits?

 

Was very impressed with how it went Tim,Once its wound up to 30psi it will be an animal

 

Lmao jake get it sorted lad lol , full spec karl would have to say I don't know all that's been done as for the inlet we know what it will do just watch this space .

shes full helmet at 30psi jake lol

 

it was only a matter of time butch

 

From a few passenger rides round donnington. I can't believe how much better the set up is now its on better management.

If my rst goes anything like it I'll be more than happy!!!
