My Austin 1300 as of today
Turbo Mini Forums

Not done much, but I thought I'd get two pictures up.

If you take this:



And this:



That should equal fun right?

I'm building a new 1100 engine for it.

I bet cars in norway turn from 0-to rust in less than they can 0-60!

1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

1/4mile in 13.2sec @ 111 terminal on 15psi

The second picture took a while to load for me, was a big white space, I though that the snow had covered the whole car before he had the chance to take another picture!

Cool car, even cooler setup!

nice setup v - should equal fun

should be fun V its not snowing there already is it ?

I will answer that as I know too:)

no, its not snowing yet, that picture is old. I hope it will not snow in a months time at least, but it has started to be icey in the mornings, its below zero in the night:)

I hope it'll snow tomorrow! Bring it on!

I've got these:

Look at my perfect period boost gauge people:

Gimmie!!!!!!!!!

Please....

So people. Specs are:

-1100/+040 Hypatecs
-202 head uncertain if I'll showe some 940 valves in there

So, two questions:
1. Which cam would be good for this spec? MG Metro? 266? Remember, road car no silly power.

2. CR. As I'm running a suck through setup, there's no intercooler. What boost can I safely run on this, and which CR would be beneficial then? It'd be nice to run 10psi, because this would mean I get on the red section on the boost gauge :)

nice boost gauge. Liking the volvo in the background

really like this little car!
good work mate

the air filter looks a little restrictive.

i wish it would snow like that in england, all roads would be closed so no chance in getting to work!

V,

i'd fit a temp sender and just check for aircharge temps to determine your max boost. so many things can affect it otherwise.

looks awesome vegard

Progress on the turd:

Polished and balanced crank:

In the 13's at last!.. Just

dont think its to unusual really. I cracked an S pulley the same way. I had a huuge oil leak a second after it happened:) And when i took it apart it was in two pieces.

I’m quite interested in the suck through system that was on originally, what turbo is that and how did u find it ran?

I've never run this system to be honest. Bought as a kit. It's a T3 of some sort. Infact, it looks as a bog standard Metro unit. I relly should get a smaller and modern turbocharger, but I'll use this for now to get it running.
