Its getting there ive got a jenvee inlet goin on in the next few weeks if all goes well

 

Love this little fez i bet it pulls well.Keep up the good work.

 

Realy slow as it goes as im lacking a boost pipe lol it dosent fit any more due to the new manifold en im not gonna cash out on new pipes as im fitting a new inlet so ive tied the wastgate open and driving it around NA lol

 

update time ive fitted my new inlet and some new boost pipes ect ill let the pics do the talking






a pic of my car with my mates starlet turbo now running kms



done

 

what do you guys think?

 

looks proper decent mate! iv saw that glanza on a youtube vid with a lad called smithy?? doin a skid in a street in chingford e4 brap!

 

im lovin the jenvey inlet, have you noticed any differences since fitting it? also what power you running now?

 

looking well, how much was the inlet?
i'll be asking about spacing ithink when i upgrade, my mastercylinder may get in the way where mine is.

 

Yea thats right

 

Yea my hole map was lean lol not mapped it yet as ive sent my turbo off for a rebuild and got some new injectors so ill have to wate en see

 

Yea thats why i fitted a pedal box as tge throttle body hits the servo and new the inlet is around £1350 but i dident pay that

 

ive sent my shafts off to be made into 1 piece shafts today as i made some welded ones using crazy cages adapters but they are allways on my mined wilst driving so decided to change upgrade

 

got my shafts woop cant wate to fit em



got my turbo back after a rebuild and now has a .63 exhaust housing fitting them all tomorro

 

Them shafts lok fairly hardcore

are you on track at FF?

 

no im parked up on the fast ford stand tho

 

cars all mapped still needs a lot of work but its making 305hp

 

Excellent work mate - i have a real soft spot for this car.

Keep up the good work

 

Have you managed to access the 3d fuel map for running or are you using the silly bar graph things? That's the downside to KMS over MS in my opinion

 

Tbh i like using the bar graphs when mapping just whack the space bar when u hit a bit of the map you aint happy with en it will stay there for easy viewing. I do also use the 3d graphs as well helps make the map alot smother

 

Never noticed this thread before! bet this thing is brutal keep up the good work

 

Hiya mate, i was having a chat to you at Ford Fair regarding your drive shafts, are these the ones that crazycage did for you???

I found you could never find the exact place you are at, personally think the 3D graph in MS much easier to use, on a RR the kms bar graphs may work better as you can hold the revs, but on the road it's not easy! You had a look at the ms software before? Personal choice though at the end of the day
open your eyes

 

no he made me some adapters and i slotted half a focus rs shaft in one end an half a short mk2xr2 shaft in the other got them where i needed them and welded them. they were fine i ran around 15psi on them but they were allways on the back of my mined so had thease made up so i could fit and forget

 

yea ive played around with megasquirt a bit and tunerstudio but can never get the dam things to work

ive found kms easy on road i mapped my car and a friends starlet turbo soon another zetec turbo. but yea i guess its down to what your prefer realy.

i will get my head round megasquirt one day ive got a ms2 v3 sitting on my tool box its only got 1 coil driver tho and is set up for a distributer

 

Yeah you need to be handy with a soldering iron to modify it! But you could of course run edis on the ford? Very easy, bullet proof set-up that. I tuned kms on my sierra, but I personally much preffer the ms interface, but in saying that well done for getting this far and doing it yourself.

 

did you break your sierra in the end? en yea ive wired up edis on a friends ms1. just sits in the garage now lol.

 

Nope, never broke a car yet, it is still on the road to this day. Edis will work without the ecu, the ecu just adds advance that's all, two wires is all that's required, bigry's mental mk2 fiesta turbo is on edis and ms and goes really well.

 

Are those Dave Mac shafts? What you pay for them as i need some soon, PM me if u like.

 

i was going to ask who done the shafts aswell

 

How's the starlet go? What sort of boost/power it make?

 

starlet goes realy well makes just over 220hp at 15psi on a scooby td04 turbo he loves it hears the threed

as for the shafts i used a guy who works out of his basement only problem is he has now run out of the steel he used for my shafts and finding it hard to get hole of any more its the same steel as dave mac uses for his shafts except i got charged £159 for the pair all in had to pay cash and collect tho lol

 

the edis limp home is 15degrees advance aint it? does that mean you cant go below 15?

 

Would he be willing to make more shafts? If I got the steel?

 

+1

yea cant see why not u would have to talk to him about the grade tho as if its to hard his tools wont cut it ectect

 

How did u measure the shafts etc so you could get them machined. I havent got a clue how im going to measure so i can get the right shafts made?!?!

 

It's 10 degrees if you set it up with a ford flywheel, never needed less than that at any boost level lol! Currently running 20 degrees at 1.3 bar on my car

 

sleved them first and welded then run around like that untill i was happy with them the he copyed the lenth

 

good point lol

 

he will make anything if he gets asked, but he was using 40 rockwell steel(which he struggles to get to the right grade), got the guy to make mine then passed on the details for others. he can use 25-30 rockwell and has plenty of that, just not as strong, although being quite short shafts if using the intermediate setup, then they can be hardened at a forge to be stronger.
he charged me £160 for the pair, very well made and i haven't broken one either.

car does look spot on and that inlet is lush, well out of my price range, may look at an area six concoction though in time. 305bhp is a good result, can't be at much boost though, loads to come hey
