    i still haven't fitted mine. put a new clucth cylinder on and fresh oil. just havn't got the time. amd my new engine isn't as strong on the bottom end at the mo. and i'm thinking of selling up :( had the c for 6 years. spend nearly 20k over that time. wanted a r33 but looking at a s4 this weekend.

    might put the box in the car when seling it comes reality.

    could be

    1. ignition switch. common an cars of age.- luckily cheap to fix althou a bit fiddle.

    2. the hall sender in the dizzy has broken. - sometimes a pot hole is enough to damage them. or just age. i had one go just out of the blue. when inspected the magnet had shattered.

    3. possible the ecu relay. i've never experienced this. wouldn't even know where it is.

    also it worth noting, the lift on the newman is so massive. you have to grind the edge off the port which holds the hydralic lifter. this alone is a pain in the arse. unless you have access to a an air grinder, you have a cylinder head full of aluminimun. which of course you can get out. and it only takes a small amount to knacker a lifter. then it all has to come out again.,

    so no dont get one.

    rpm head,35mm ex valves,piper270h cam,grey injectors. the lotus chargecooler( for sale) water inj std bottom end tsr 4 branch. 65mm pulley.

     

    its the the thicker line of the two

    very interesting curve.

    All that from just head work and higher boost via the smaller pulley?

     

    How did you blow it up in the end then?

     

     

    tooth belt snapped and split a piston. after a rebuild it was never the same. and during the rebuild i must have had some muck in it cos it broke another piston. and scored the liner. shit ha.

    yes but people dont forget ,big valve heads. (only the cnc heads flow as much as the 16v) you will loose low down torque for higher hp. the opposite to what you wanted. if its high torque bore out the bottom end and only hand ported head. with a mild cam. eg piper 270h. and a 65mm pulley.

     

    (this may not strickly be accurate but in may personnel experience.)
