any comments on this arrangement?
what think of home-made plenium chamber in-let and cooler pipes?

intercooler pipes look ok. should work fine.

whys your dumpvalve signal pipe go inside the car?

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

dumpvalve singal comes off a tee ( from top of in inlet) and other pipe goes off to boost gauge..

nice clubman btw.:cool:

Looks good ,

I would consider a splash guard for air filter in the wet between the road wheel and filter if you are out in the rain or you will get a water injection you didnt order lol

Ps I guess its a clubby front based on the intercooler position ??

Is that a 4wd cossy cooler ???Should be good for lots of bananas

yeah thanks, i've got 'slabs' of thin rubber material to attach to brace bars somehow, sometime, somewhere.lol
its not a clubman-yet. i've got a grp roundnose fitted-with a rather large 'hole' in it.ooer

planning running 12psi. does anyone care to guess how many bananas and curlywurlys it'll muster?

oh and any good rr's in the highlands?

If you tell us the cam and head spec....etc

Wallace Performance in Aberdeen, Dyce is the nearest one to me....

im not sure, i know the heads not std though as the chambers have been de-beaked, (made into a D shape if you know what i mean). std cam, pistons, and rockers though.


i got the engine second-hand in bits and fitted new mains, bigends, rings, chain, and followers. suppose should've done more research, but just cant wait

If you time it up for 98 ron fuel and about 10 - 12 psi of boost, with good timming you could expect between 120 - 140 bhp, but be sure the bottom end can take it......


As alex b says, unless you have upgrade the diff and drops you will have to be mechanically simpathetic.i.e not balls out 1st gear st offs....

hmm i know, std box on now, with 38thou miles already
i'll be happy if it lasts a year, then i'll think about straight cut drops and x-pin diff.

what sort of box do you run?

Rebuilt standard box but like I say, save the lead foot for 3rd and fourth.....To be honest you will enjoy the torque with the cossy cooler more at high speeds anyway...

looks a familiar design! :cool: good work so far.

im guessing the box wont last a year tho!

very nice

ta.
I've been waiting over a week now, for two 50mm silicone elbows form the bay of th e!

had it running with the std plenium elbow, and since then decided to go for megajolt ignition!

just one question, where can i get a suitable map from for my engine setup? as im not confident in making my own

contact Alex F

just bought trigger wheel, vr senor, edis module, coil pack, and screened cable from ebay. for the sum of 70 big ones. how lazy am i
no need to get cold, wet, and cut hands in the scrappy.lol
