Tbh I love they way the power comes in now I hit peak boost at around 2900 mark il be changing the mangament for omex soon I think as my ofab is way past it's limits

Will you be taking on the 1/4mile when your ready?

 

i think for now i just need to keep it on the road, although rollers will be soon, followed by at least a couple of quarter runs, prob york dragway though.

Looks mint. I Love this car!

 

Well got started on taking the engine out tonight as its going in Saturday hopefully!! Picking up my new blacktop engine on Friday after work and will start stripping it down

Here's how the new cooler setup is starting to take shape

 

Is that act gauge any good? Ive just got 1 and from holding it in my hand it looks too slow in reacting to be any use?

 

Nice, will be great to see this progress to the next stage.

 

Hopefully going for 380hp for now!! plus gas

Then dry sump and some proper revs!!
this turned up today

 

dean, what cooler is that? i dont think it'll be as good as the cossie cooler

 

It pace it means I can have a bigger rad now and it's bigger than my Cossie cooler its Beeing painted gloss black and there's a number plate to go over the top

 

good choice on engine mount, helps reduce the movement.
what is the turbo you're going for?
just gone gt30, animal, gt28 could be a good one upto 400bhp.

 

My plan is to build the engine first with the new rad and cooler setup new inlet and crack an 11second 1/4 mile then il be going gt28 or gt30 nitrous Crazycage inlet and strip out the weight I have a new gearbox so hopefully il be crossing the line in forth and launching in second!

What's the spec of your new turbo??

 

new turbo is a GT3071r, dual ball bearing, spools well and runs for a week after switching engine off (exaggerating a little)!!
it's a bit overkill, but a good price so went for it, it's from clarkes 415bhp @1.8/1.9 BAR mk2 fiesta, so well proven, just surging a little, i think boost controller needs gain pulling out or some mapping work.

 

That should be a handful now!!

Well I'm going silvertop now area six exhaust cam ported head steel rods forged pistons Ect new rad and cooler setup

Picked up my new engine at the week stripped and ready to get bored







Fitted the new inner wing mount as the other distroyed it's self

 

And all back in the garage engine out once again!!!

 

good choice of cam, is it his responce spec..?

 

Yeah boost response

 

That's the kiddy!

 

Is that what people are calling standard cams now-a-days?

 

wot happened to the engine lewis woz building for the red escort

 

Also put a cheeky deposit on a jenvey inlet on Saturday !!

 

Your thoughts?

 

its nothing more than a standard 105ps spec fiesta xr2i cam

 

depending on spec the cam may not be just an xr2i one, i have the phase one setup in mine and the exhaust cam isn't an oem one for sure, the inlet could be as there are no real markings just the lift/duration stamped on the ends.
either or, i didn't buy them new so not a big issue for me.

 

My cam is a non oe one either as it came in a piper box,

 

My cam is stamped in the middle of the cam with sport cam? Il pop a pick up tonight

So the area six sport cam is basically the same as using a 105 ps zetec cam from the 16v xr2i??? If so I'm gunna get my mate to stick one in the Orion and see what difference it makes

 

Its probably ground from a billet and is near enough xr2i duration spec.

Would never get away with re-badging OE spec stuff and selling them on as something else.


Are the 105 bhp XR2i cams the same as a 1.8 Escorts ?

 

There were rumours about that his low lag/response exhaust cam was a stock 115ps cam. Whether thats true or not I don't know

 

Update time got my jenvey inlet today and some new boost hoses made a start
on piping up the boost pipes also

pics

 

Clarke could have cleaned it first! Lol

 

haha its just how i like it matches the rest of my bay lol

Very nice dean

 

well jeal on the inlet, want, want, want, but no monies
good on ya, get it built up double quick now

 

Crackin bit of kit there mate
