Just a bit of an uptade people with the car. its now back together with new headgasket, cambelt and others to freshen the engine up whilst it was in bits after taking the turbo, throttle bodies, inlet plenum and other bits etc.

i have taken the CAT CAMS 708 exhaut cam out and replaced it with the standard exhaust cam, we were getting really bad over lap last time so it has had to come out. this should help us more now rather than throwing the boost down the exhaust as before.

we had a problem with getting a verry irratic map reading off one throttle body track, so now we have plumbed in 4 outlets(1 off each track), then they go into a vaccum collector cannister(see pics) where we come off out of that to give a much reliable and constant vaccuum so in turn a equal map reading. this will help the final mapping session.

ive had a metal engineer on the end of our yard to make me up some solid engine mounts so there in the process of being done, there is a pic of 1 that is finished so far.

ive gapped the plugs down to .5mm like colin advised @ ATSPEED RACING, so that should help sparking when chucking loads of boost in. if anyone has any q's ill be happy to try and help,

many thanks















cheers peeps
