I thought you could go to around 370 on a t34/63? I'm probably misinformed though lol

I know nobody is putting him down, i'd like to give the guy a hand too.

I think he may be from over here as he posted on are local ford forum, well either that or he stumbled on it somehow. But i suspect he is from here as he said "she is a pure flying machine" and that to me sounds like a bit of 'norn iron' lol

PAUL : You probably could get 370 on a T34/63, using stupidly high amounts of boost, but either the turbo or the engine would let go after a short while. In reality, 340 - 350 Is about the absolute maximum, and that's with everything else to help it out. Correct Compression Ratio, Modified Head, Cams, A genuine RS500 Intercooler or a top line aftermarket item (Pro Alloy etc), grey injectors, and live mapped.

It's abit like all stage three conversions producing 320 - 330bhp........They would, but only if you had every part of the engine correctly specced, including all of the anciallaries. To just put an off the shelf stage three chip into a car and change the injectors to green's along with a T34, normally resulted in around 320bhp, and very few made 330bhp unless that had the rest of the engine correctly specc'd.

I too learned the hard way............16years of cosworth ownership..........and an empty bank account.!!!!!

There is nothing wrong with the parts on your car, it has the potential for around 350+bhp!

The cable that goes over your engine looks to be the clutch cable, it should be routed as below:-

(look just above the yellow line)



As for the breather, you are missing a pipe that comes from the turbo side of the block, its not a massive deal to sort!
Na mate that the speedo calbe if u look at the pic close u can see the cable run up near the wipper motor wot means its running 2 the clocks. plus u can see the clutch cable running down the side of the top mount/strut????
