Germany Update:

Can ran faultless and didn't miss a beat once, only did 6 laps as spent most of the time either talking or going out in other cars.

In true fashion, she's come home with battle scars, i ripped the rivots out the front splitter so had to duct tape it all on....hopefully gonna get it to Robbo's at the weekend to get it fixed and the paint touched in

Fast!

You put another boost hose on to see if that would cure it?

Who cares about the boost, check the flames on that rude boi!

On a serious note, i think it will be something silly like the Actuator or the Penny on the wastegate, the turbo is mint

Basically went to the Cheshire meet on Wed night Ryan and on the motorway the turbo surged/stalled at 130mph took foot off the gas and tryed it again and had no boost but could hear a whistling noise, thought it was just a hose off. Took both hoses off at the meet and all seemed ok, went back out and it sounded like a supercharged mini with about 10psi

Put the standard hoses on last night and changed the amal valve and we've got it to 26psi but not holding and dont feel quick. Ribbie thinks the peeny wheel has dropped so i'll get the downpipe off and check.

Gotta love Cosworths

Its a Cossie mate, thats the problem

Keeps losing electrical power and cutting out However the SECS monitor doesn't go into startup mode, but the STACK loses the rev signal but stays illuminated STACK is powered from car loom along with DEFIs which are not affected However the headlights also go out/flicker at the same time. I 'm lost with it mate

Any ideas/help mucho appreciated mate

Yeah we'll catch up on Sunday mate...i DOUBT the car will be there now as i found the problem......

Raced a Bentley Continental yesterday and think the owner was a bit pissed off i went passed him, he finally caught me and must have gone past me at well over 160mph on the way back i had a little blast and the turbo let go in 4th nursed it home with smoke coming out the drivers bonnet vent, when opening the bonnet, smoke was coming out of the breather catch tank and the atmospher breather on the bailey pot, took the hose off and the shaft looks fooked the nut has span off but luckily still on. Gonna get it off tonight to see whats damaged....but atleast Danny RAD had got all the parts on stock for it to be built back up.
