Default Anybody done a 330 conversion themselves???

Ive got all the parts for it, but am not sure about whether it will be setup ok after fitting.

Boost is simple enough, but what about fuel pressure?
Is it likely it would need adjusting or should it stay at normal?

If it does indeed look risky then i wil take it to the specialist who supplied me the conversion but that will have to be next year now (if i can wait!!!)

Any comments?

Cheers

If you have all the parts, why not fit them, get the car running and take it to your nearest rolling road, and get it set up
At least they would be able to sort out any small problems

Cheers

Cheers Fella's.

Is it going to be ok to take it to a rolling road who aren't necessarily Cosworth specialists???

Ive got one about 20 minutes away, but dont know if they know about cosworths.

Once the kit is on, is it just a case of setting the correct boost, co???

How is the fuel pressure affected when switching to Dark Greens?
