To make a noticable difference would probably require alot of insulation.

well done mate how does it drive?? It's mad lol it's like a Go kart 
My mate said he could here me coming up the road. Everyone looks at you. they must be thinking, whats wrong with his car lol Got few things to sort out. The head lights work when they want to lol The oil temp is not working, nore the turbo gauge. which a mate installed. but he must of done it wrong. Got my mate whos shit hot on electrics is gonna help sort it out. I noticed the steering wheel was pointing at 10 o/clock while the car was going in a straight line lol. So tracking needs doing. when going from 1st to 2nd, it pops abit. I set the timing to 12-deg. I also used that colour tune. did all that before i drove it, and it was shite lol.. The car seems to like it running rich  (THAT OK) ?
Have to adjust the reverse light abit more. Also, the dump valve dont make that noise it's meant to 
Part from that. im getting there. Will it pass MOT running rich ? Thanks everyone for your support and help over these mad months :) very much appreciate :) Shit Happen's |

write everything on a list, and stick it on the windscreen and just work through the niggles one at a time

you might struggle MOT time witha rich mixture Why do you think the car likes to runs rich ? I tried leaning it off, but it had flat spots. Guess RR will sort that out :) On 7th Feb, 2008 matty said:
Glad you've got it going, you'll get used to it! 
If its not pulling to one side then its easier to move the steering wheel round on the splines than re-adjust the track rod ends, to get the steering wheel straight. I tried moving the steering wheel its self. but ends up in a 2 O/clock position. so shall i try move the boss ?. On 8th Feb, 2008 turbo hogster said:
glad to here is now running ok. boost gauge need to be fitted to engine side of the butterfly so does the dump valve take of hose. Cheers mate, you said dont worry about the gears ect:) And you was right. but i couldn't help it, as this was my first time building a gearbox :) Im running a T piece between the pipe coming from the Regulator To the Plenum. always had it this way and worked fine. The dump valve is opening and closing ok, just not that funky noise you get
Im sure will sort it out today :) Thanks for all your help rich mate.

Have you blocked off the poppet valve? Boost gauge and vacuum need to come from the inlet manifold. Same place as the servo. Take it to a rolling road and get the fuel/timing sorted properly. I did block off the poppet valve :) I do have the dump valve coming off the inlet manifold, which the main man Steve sorted out for me
Cheers for the head you made also steve mate, exellent work
Cheers.. Shit Happen's |

Well done, main thing though is PLEASE don't drive it hard until you have had it rolling roaded somewhere that knows Mini Turbos. It is vital you get it setup properly as otherwise you CAN end up with a severly fucked engine very quickly!

He's based in Stains so can't be a million miles away! based in east Mosley I'd recomend him too. he built nics engine and i think set it up too. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:
