VEEDUBBED 0 Posted April 7, 2005 Here's a couple of photos of my existing 1800cc PG block Turbo 16 valver, The 9A 16v.G60 engine is almost finished so it's time to call it a day for this motor,seeing also that it's got serios Ring/bore wear problems maybe because it was running 1.8 bar turbo pressure almost constantly and with 8 injectors rigged up the fuel cons. was ridiculess... I loved this motor,it was great when racing on rome's long ring road at nite,waiting to see if something interesting came up behind...flashing me to move over,Sierra,Escort cossies, subaru imprezas,porsche carreras... Anyway,i hope the 16v g60 mill will be ok,by the way,the turbo lag was huge,but from half way through 3rd onwards it went ballistic..Ciao. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VEEDUBBED 0 Posted April 8, 2005 Allright chaps, You are Quite correct saying that it's all go and no show, I did that deliberatly because of Italy's law stating that cars used on public roads must not be modified in ANY way,That means not even a modified back box,strut brace etc. So when i get pulled by the local old bill, it looks crap and does'nt stand out,attracting un-wanted attention also a poss.~400 euro fine+impounding of car which also intails more cash to get the car back... The inter's off an Iveco Turbo daily van, simuler to a Merc. sprinter. Adie,let me know if you decide to turbo yer motor, I'll help you out mate.Cheers,Andrew.
