GMC motorsport
 

The go-to guys back in the day. Had a quick look to their website the other day but its no more. Think John must have finally retired :(

Used to love the bants.
When the flag drops...

Thats very much end of an era

Does that mean no more comments like:- “that’s too modern it will never work.”
Or “it’s been done like this for years why would you want to change it”

No, I can carry on with sensible comments like that. :-)

You will never beat the :- turbos are over rated a supercharger is better in all aspects of racing ..........

Well, he has't logged in for over 2 years so I guess not.

He was firmly stuck in the 90's when it came to engine tech, just was absolutely against learning anything new and that progress had been made when it comes to tuning cars.

Some aftermarket ECU's now are so good and easy to use, that any idiot could set up a base map and not break their engine
or, dare I say they could set a road tune and get better results
then just a quick drive to someone reputable with a dyno to finish it off.

He’s back.......

Ahh yes, just seen his post.

Also saw a 106 for sale very recently with a GMC supercharger kit fitted to it. Pity the guy selling it knew absolutely nothing about the spec of his car.

Local? Would buy and strip it for mine

last week my irish RALLY customer who has bought s/c kits over the years has decided he can,t drive them any more even with traction control etc
the first couple of years was fine ,then cos he kept winning they moved him into the top class and now he just can,t be competitive --as he is front wheel drive and other specials are mid engined rwd
so --anyway
he has sent me a c30/74 charger and my bracket and bottom crank pulley and ytthe oil kit
no hoses no oil rad for s/c -no water rad or intercooler -he made them himself cos he was using c2 bodyshells
charger and all things have never been fitted and new-,but are a few years old
price will be no vat and no warranty £850 +carriage --or come and get it and see it first
you want me to supply same brand new £1600 ish
usual tel no 01671404030

What was that john, didn’t hear you the first two times.

just fishing for a bite.

too late the man has found a customer for it in Ireland
so its gone back
I do still have a couple of new S/C brackets
my complete dyno set up can be bought cheap as well -

taken out of context as most of your snipes were and seems still are
you forget what I said a long time ago that a modern ecu controlled turbo will be better --
but in those days and now no one wants to spend the ,money on new tech tech turbo,s and electronics to control them on a cheap old car

If you compare like with like old tech turbo AND an s/c on a saxo and a race track --then s/c will win every time
If we could start again with modern type turbo,s -and deep pockets traction control etc --the yes turbo will win

Did you sell off all your stock john? Anything left for package deal etc possibly?
