Love those wheels . Azev Type C 8Jx17 right ? 225X35 tyres ?
Do they fit well under the stock arches or did you need to roll the front arch lip inside like when fitting 16" Escort Cosworth alloys onto Sierras ?
Keep up the good work

when Vince did the turbo I said I wanted it to be a Gen 400bhp turbo they said no problems and that will be £650ish lol
When I was on the rollers the guy that was running it said it wasnt just a t34.63 and must be some sort of 34/38 hybrid I was a bit and thought the torque was a bit high, but all the other cars torque was about right so who knows, all I do kinow is it goes fucking well on the road

as for the diff plate thingy its a bargain init I was going to do my own but for that price is not worth the messing about

Not for much longer though mate as soon as we move it's coming out for a sort out it's pissing oil anyway and the cams,rings are a little worn lol so might as well give it a propper sort out, ya know aftermarket management as good as the Msd stuff is it's always gunna be ££££ every time I change spec

That diff plate looks sexy! I had to grind my bolt head down to clear the arb.

Nice power there too Matt, and phenomenol torque! Although as you know mine was done there the week before and felt the torque was a little on the high side... at least the gearbox thinks so lol!

Love this car though mate!

Read and weep my bald friend


mate,mike guerney came in the week before and calibrated the dyno and it was 0.6% out then so spot on mate but in all fairness when a turbo car doesnt run through properly because its poorly or not quite right it does seem to make the torque fig seem high and thats why matts has come out high but yours run right through with no probs so is deffo correct!!

cheers danny
