most turn up at 7 , hang about a few hours . not the best time of year but once it gets a bit lighter of an evening the numbers get larger and folk stay for longer. Well, I'm only about 25 miles away, so I'll try to get the car up there, it needs some miles putting on it. I work not far from where ...

I might try to get down for a meeting. Reg'd on JNW - what's the usual kick off time and how long do people stay for?

Great result Jim - followed this from afar. Brilliant.

Cheers Ash,

Just one more thing to add - we're now overhauling the fuel setup. It was just put in place to get it functional and working.

But, Nathan from Century is designing the system for me, from the walbro's outwards.

Hope to have that off him soon and then in place not too long afterwards.

Now THATS how you get big power! We see all too often people slapping a huge turbo on to the 3SGTE lump which just isnt designed to supply such large turbo's. End result is laaaaag BOOM. Not my idea of how power should be delivered as the result is usually a horrible driving experience and probably...

Thanks guys - just working out a very minor gremlin at the moment ... TIME!

I'm so busy working away, I've had no time to drive it - let alone have the map finished on the dyno.

Thanks for the comments, though, but it's Woodsport and my Bank Manager who deserve the praise

Settled my mind though when ive saved the money woodsport will be the people i see to get converted to a v6

Cheers
Woodsport really are the only ones to consider with the conversions

Yea Terminals don't lie - times do

I saw this in the flesh when i was at woodsport during summer. MY GOD it's a beast! when johnny says the turbo's huge he means HUGE it looked bigger than my head! Amazing built mate! you got any bhp figures yet? It'll be a monster at high boost. It'll support larger turbos - anything that comes wit...

Mmmmmm what's the quickest 1/4 run on a stock turbo???

Was it a 12.7??

Depends on the driver. A driver can be worth up to a couple of seconds on the 1/4 mile

Hi Johnny. Great to see ya back in posetion of you car again! good to be back in an MR2 again?? :mrgreen: :twisted: haha. Been a long time comming but what an awsome awsome final product. Loving the body work too. the little things too like the blended front wing into the skirt, love that! Big cred...

i can understand that ! perfection takes time :thumleft: what will the engine rev up to safely under boost ? or is this still estimates ? Well, the stock engine was only made for 5500rpm, being a truck engine - but I had the head massively worked on. Porting, cams, valves, shimless bucket conversio...

On a separate note: these figures are all meaningless comparisons unless it was all done on the same dyno. If I wanted, I could get a Mk1 to read 500bhp - it's all in the calibration, temperature, air density, gear and other operating parameters. How? If that's the case and you can manipulate the r...

amazing :shock: credit to all involved :mrgreen: it must sound like an untamed beast ! this weather must be doing your nut in :lol: how long until we have dry roads and you can get some miles in the bag ](*,) i really am looking forward to seeing this in the flesh asap :thumleft: It's getting right...

Wait a couple of months, a daughterboard to make the stock rev 3 ecu mappable should be appearing on the horizon shortly :thumleft: More info please! It's over on TwoBrutal at the moment On a separate note: these figures are all meaningless comparisons unless it was all done on the same dyno. If I ...

Hope it all goes well

Cheers, the full build thread - with banter - is all on TwoBrutal

Paul Woods? Not bad at all mate! He's the only one who'll ever touch my cars - and that includes the Supra, which is what I might start on next!

lexus 4ltr v8 twin turbo???

or challenge him with a viper v10

Lexus has been done before
Viper engine is too wide

Cheers Jim! The whole thing is a credit to Paul Woods.
