yalright james, hows tricks bud?

yeah gonna keep the old girl after having a good 4 sessons at trax i decided i love her too much especially as being able to destroy so many more much faster cars.

gonna go for a rebulid with low comps and a prototype miltek tubular manifold with more boost!!:y:

need to catch up again somewhen

Looks great mate!

I've seen you out on track a few times this year now, and the car is just super impressive!

That's good to hear mate! Needs someone to drive this car and really push, not sure a new owner would do that...

Yeh once the VTS is on the road I'll have a drive down and see you :y:

May get you to do some work on it so I'm entitled to farm workshop stickers :p

James

Hi mate what internals your running?
i put a thread up saying can i run bodies/carbs with turbo and they said running high comp pistons wont work so how did u do yours?

easy, he's not using hi-compression pistons.

the easy way to do it is use a thicker head gasket..

thanks very much bud, she does good for a farmworkshop built car!

:y:yeah danny is right bud, im just running 2 headgaskets so the compression is down to about 8.1.

you can run bodies and turbo but you just have to run a standalone ecu really as as it is a pig to map due to sucking and blowing together.

it runs off map now rather than throttle position.

hope this is of some help, be happpy to answer anymore q's. cheers

in regards to compression, i know low comp pistons is about 9.1 on a sax.

but in respect to high comp e.g 10.5 .1 that normally limots your boost to about 7 psi ish.

the funny thing is from speaking to ferriday engineering who do de comp plates, he was saying world rally cars run about 13.1 compression with 30psi boost. its only the super advanced engine management that lets it run like that and not blow itself to bits!!!!

anyone have any pics of my car from the track days?

cheers chris

i want this

there is a pic of your car in the latest fast ford
ill scan it tomorrow if you want

yeah that wpuld be spot on bud if your able to do that!.

cheers bud for the pictures,

that escort in front of me in the top picture is 800hp and the skyline is 550. so i think the saxo did well with only 205bhp and i left that red r35 too!!.
