It's all down to the sheer amount of boost I'm forcing into it. I'll try to get the graph up of mine vs JMC's despite it making 20bhp less as a headline figure. It makes 10 bhp more and about 15 lb ft torque over 85% of the rev range.
-
Max speed reached 127.1 mph Max torque 228.7 lb ft @ 3680 rpm
-
Jim has all the numbers. I'll have a shed load of pics in a week or so once they've been processed by my friend.
-
Another good day out. Red typhoons r32 turbo definitely topped it off
-
May have another coming along with a focus st with a few tweaks... He's asked if he's welcome.
-
I'll be heading up from Dorset. Could arrange a meeting place on route
-
The bottom half is just a standard air box You get the lid and hoses plus charger flanges in the kit.
-
Payment now sent.

I would speak to Vince at stealth. I'm sure he sorted the issues Ramsay and Craig had doing their installs. Something to do with the MAF reaching peak air flow and causing this to happen at 3500 rpm.

I'm still in. Want to check my progress since my last run just over a year ago
-
I can do that for you. Courier would have to be Friday afternoon or Saturday due to work commitments. Are the wheels already packed or will that have to be sorted aswell?
-
Max-rpm.de springs to mind. Also a few kits on German eBay. Or try BBM in the states... Think Only Charged Dubs stock some of their stuff and may be able to source it for you.
-
It looks a bit beat up but is functional, reliable and comfortable. I want to see how close to your numbers I can get without going 1.9 bottom end
-
Look forward to catching up with you again. Hopefully mines a little more reliable than last run.
-
I'll donate my car for that if an agreement can be made on dates.
-
All over it. Order will be placed when I'm home from work
-
Get the charger checked out if there's no paperwork for it. And keep it in good health. Apart from that regular servicing with good quality parts will see you right

Bens Corrado G60 - engine woes and a long to do list
owen g60 replied to bendunstan's topic in Members Gallery
As stated above the co pot needs connecting, this can cause major issues not being done. The pipe connecting from the throttle body to boost return needs removing and both the throttle body and boost pipe plugging up. As for the blanked off pipe that's where some people fit a blow off valve. Only normally done with a welded throttle body outlet and isv delete. -

If you can get somewhere near me ill run through it with you. Can do the boost return mod at the same time. That pipe coming from the throttle body is it going into the return pipe? -
Count me in
-
Yep that's the fella
-
Is that not for the complete pulley set? Unless prices have rocketed. There used to be a seller on eBay who listed them as for an 8v engine... Think these are the same thing.
-
Both gruven parts and bar-tek list them from what I can see. Not cheap but better than the £500+ I was looking at from heritage.
-
It's an aftermarket part. I've been running one for about 5000 miles now with no ill effects. It gets rid of the dampener as the aux pulley and pas pulley are all one unit.
-
I went for a 1 piece pulley. Managed to find one on eBay. A few places do make them a quick google search should find them
