im hoping for arround that kind of power, if you dont mind me asking what gearbox are you using? cheers, Mark. I'm using one of Morspeed's straight cut jobbies, came as part of the 'Turbo Challenge' spec engine package. Its a been a great box so far, i'd definitely recommend Simons work thats for sure :) Thanks for the nice comments guys  I'm really pleased with it so far, its a laugh to drive!

It sounds great, it really makes me want to get back out in the garage and carry on with my Metro. I have been house bound and able to do bugger all apart from watch tv for the last two weeks. Since someone knocked me and a mate of our bikes, and smashed my shoulder up.

Thanks for the picture, it does look nice. I will be intereted to see how you get on with the front mounted intercooler. This is the way that i have gone. I have got a HUGH intercooler from a WRC car which i have managed to get fitted at the front. I have had to move the radiator back a few inches and fit a different fan. had to go the MegaJolt route to acheive this.

(Also is that an Owen Developments sticker in your window? If so what did they do for you? We use them for refurbing turbos from work... Might have to get in touch with them.) They rebuilt my T3 Turbo with one of their 360 thrust bearing kits for high boost use...Top work, great company :cool: Tim 89' Metro Turbo

Do you have a sneaky photo of your progress so far? Would be interested to see how your getting on. My i/cooler is going to be about 850mm by 200mm. Tim They are not the best of photos but they show roughly where things are going to sit. When i am feeling better i will try and get some better ones. Don't know what it will work like, hopefully it should be ok. Luke |

I'm hoping to set a benchmark quarter mile time for metros with this car. Would like to try and get into the 13's once I've got the power close to 200bhp. Tim 89' Metro Turbo
