Just had a thought.... since she is showing such an interest... get the musis on the case with the efi stuff! She was helping me with the Megasquirt build - we just stopped buildiong it for whatever reason; Time to re-start me thinks (probably take me weeks to figure out where exactly we got upto)!!! It will be quicker, but I am not going to go an make the thing lighter - unless it is something easilly done and done quickly. The thing has already done a 13.6 - a clutch that can take more than 16psi, a quaife diff, and of course more power from EFi and more than 16psi boost - we should easilly be in the 12's without touching the 'non mechanicals'... However, as i mentioned - the paint is starting to bubble around the edges; next strip and build will see it a little lighter. The Recaro seats, carpet, and steel front end are STAYING however :) I think getting rid of weight from the back end is where I want to concentrate my efforts.

I was looking at an uprated CT9 a friend was fitting to a Starlet the other day. Easily capable of 200+, and the thing is like a toy its so small !!!!! There has to be massive room for improvement on the A-series with turbo selection. Steve, Would you stick a carb on your granada? Jean / Paul have already made inroads to MS A-series EFI - I don't want to just wait till everyone else has figured it out - If I get back in with it, it'll happen sooner.,.. Already have more turbos than i can shake a stick at to choose from - and nothing larger than a GT28, or smaller than a GT17. On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:
